The Heir of Zhenbei: From Playboy to Emperor

Lu Yixuan, heir to the Prince of Zhenbei, is sent to the capital as a political hostage. The entire city dismisses him as nothing more than a wastrel who squanders money on whims. But no one knows his secret: a hidden system that rewards him with cashback points for every extravagant expense—especially when the spending appears most wasteful. He pours silver into military affairs, civil welfare, and strategic networks, turning apparent folly into a calculated game of power. With every thousand taels spent to break a deadlock and every ten thousand invested to raise a private army, Lu Yixuan navigates the treacherous swamps of the capital and the battlefields of the northern frontier. He climbs over the ruins of noble houses and royal princes, crushing rebellions and purging the court. From a despised, frivolous heir, he rises step by step to claim the ultimate throne—the sovereign of all under heaven.
