The Slacker Prince: The Drama Queen Helps Me Become Emperor

Xiao Jingheng, the世子 of Nanling, appears to be a dissolute playboy, but is actually a modern soul who has transmigrated. Beneath the prosperity of the Dayin Dynasty, currents of unrest run deep: feudal lords vie for power, border regions are in turmoil, and the people are displaced. As a newcomer caught in a web of power struggles, he is dismissed as a useless fool and finds it difficult to make progress. By chance, he obtains a golden finger that allows him to see into people's hearts, deduce situations, and orchestrate the world like a game of chess. He can discern loyalty from treachery, predict opponents' moves, reverse desperate situations, and play the fool to perfection. While others struggle to find solutions, he watches the changing tides with a smile; while others fight for power, he quietly takes control of the court. From the capital's top wastrel to the master of the empire, he stands alone at the pinnacle of power. Together with the drama queen girl Aruo, he rides the chaotic world, turning his hand to create clouds and rain, achieving the imperial ambition of a thousand-year reign.
