Great Tang: I’m More Blunt Than Wei Zheng, and Li Er Promotes Me

Gao Yang, a young man from the twenty-first century, goes to sleep and wakes up in a palace of the Tang Dynasty, after the Xuanwu Gate Incident! If Li Er has him executed, he’ll be able to return to the modern world! So Gao Yang sets out to get himself killed. Li Er: “The lychees my consort wants can be rushed here on horseback from a thousand miles away. This truly shows how prosperous the Great Tang is!” Gao Yang: “Nonsense! Only a foolish ruler would do such a thing! With a ruler this foolish, how can the Great Tang call itself prosperous?” Li Er: “Will my Crown Prince Li Chengqian be a wise ruler after he succeeds me?” Gao Yang: “He could never become emperor! You, his own dear father, drove him to rebel!” Li Er: “Guanyin Bi and I will surely grow old together, leaving future generations a beautiful love story…” Gao Yang: “Bullshit! Guanyin Bi will die in ten years, and you’ll take plenty of concubines after she’s gone. Some love story!” Li Er: “…” Gao Yang relentlessly tears into Li Er in the Tang court, hoping to get himself sentenced to death as soon as possible so he can return to the modern world. But just as he finishes speaking, Li Er gazes at Gao Yang with a smile. “Having you is my good fortune! Guards, promote Gao Yang!”
