The Idle Ninth Prince of the Celestial Empire

Emperor Wei, ruler of the magnificent Eternal Plane, gains the unsettling power of mind-reading after a celestial lightning strike. His vast empire, seemingly stable, now whispers with hidden ambitions and treacherous plots. Yet, one mind remains an enigma: his Ninth Prince, Wei Yu, a transmigrator from modern Earth, armed with a futuristic tablet in his consciousness. Wei Yu desires only an existence of unparalleled leisure, but his modern insights inadvertently initiate revolutionary reforms in governance, cultivation, and civilization building. Each "accidental" stroke of genius further elevates him as the ideal heir, drawing the emperor's scrutinizing gaze even closer. Caught between his yearning for freedom and the crushing weight of imperial expectation, Wei Yu must navigate court intrigue, an increasingly powerful cultivation world, and a father who can read his every 'idle' thought, all while reshaping the destiny of an immortal empire.
