Great Tang: Someone Stole the Top Spot in the Civil Service Exams from Me

Yang Yun transmigrates to the Tang dynasty. At first, he wants to live a quiet, peaceful life away from the world. But despite keeping a low profile, Li Shimin discovers his talent. After two months of pleading, the emperor finally persuades him to take the imperial examinations and bring prosperity to the people of the Tang dynasty. After thinking it over for two years, Yang Yun finally decides to go to the capital and sit the exams...

Li Shimin: "I am greatly relieved. He has finally arrived."

Zhangsun Wuji: "H-He? Who is he, that Your Majesty values him so highly?"

"He is the man who can make the Tang dynasty flourish for another thousand years!"

"..."

Yang Yun completes the examinations with flying colors, and the examiners rank him first. But when the results are posted three days later, Yang Yun discovers to his shock that someone else has stolen his place as top scholar!

Yang Yun: "Old Li, it’s not that I don’t want to help bring prosperity to the Tang dynasty. Damn it, someone stole my title as top scholar..."

Li Shimin goes mad: "Is there no justice? Is there no law anymore?"
