Trash Son? No, Fatal Censor!

Felix Carter is not the man whose body he lives in. He arrived in the world as the base-born son of a general, and what he wanted was to hold on to the family property and live quietly with his fiancée. His abilities were too obvious for that. Prince Quentin put a price on his head, and rulers of the surrounding states took turns hunting him and pressing marriages on him, so that he had enemies on every side. He helped the empress go after corruption in her government and gained real power out of it. With the whole world against him he asked her what would happen if he wanted the empire itself. She smiled and said she would give it to him. He had started as a rich idler in Great Zhou.
