After transmigrating, Fang Lang finds himself in the body of Jinling City's infamously notorious spoiled young master. He thinks his family's immense fortune will let him live carefree for the rest of his life. Instead, his father forces him to study, the emperor orders him to enter officialdom, and even the friends he casually makes turn out to be members of the imperial family. All he wants is a peaceful, comfortable life, yet he repeatedly stirs up storms in the imperial court. From a laughingstock at the academy to a trusted confidant of the emperor, from a merchant's son to a prodigy capable of shaping the fate of the realm, the wastrel everyone once despised becomes someone the entire court dares not underestimate. But as political intrigue brews and turmoil erupts along the frontier, just how much ability can this young man, who only wants to lie low, continue to keep hidden?
