Dream of the Red Chamber: I Really Don't Want to Become Emperor

Jia Mang transmigrates to the world of Dream of the Red Chamber, into a distant branch of the Rongguo Jia family.

With Jia Zheng pulling strings for him,

he spends three years making his way up in the army

and is awarded the title of First-Class Viscount!

This draws him fully into the Jia family's intrigues.

He had intended to pursue a path of both literary and military achievement,

but never expected to be betrothed as a child to Qin Keqing, the most beautiful woman in Dream of the Red Chamber.

Jia Zhen tries to use his power to take her by force.

Jia Mang has no choice but to boldly strike down the beast, crush the arrogant retainers, and thoroughly reform the Jia family,

turning its fortunes around and keeping the Twelve Beauties from suffering their original fates.

As chaos looms, Jia Mang has no choice but to take up his three-foot sword,

crush rebels, conquer the Tartars, expand the realm, and earn unparalleled military honors.

The Four Princes, Eight Dukes, and Twelve Marquises keep pushing him higher and higher,

until they force him into the very position that everyone covets.

Jia Mang can only sigh:

"I really don't want to be forced to wear the imperial robes!"
