After transmigrating to an alternate Tang Dynasty, Jiang Yu failed the imperial exams. He went to a tavern to drink his sorrows away and met Wu Meiniang, who was traveling incognito.
Drawn in by a poem Jiang Yu recited, Wu Meiniang came over to chat, and the two enjoyed lively conversation over drinks.
Drunk, Jiang Yu asked, “Who are you?”
Drunk, Wu Zetian replied, “I am Wu Meiniang!”
Jiang Yu said, “Sister Wu, I don't want to work hard anymore.”
Jiang Yu continued, “I can write wild cursive calligraphy with the tip of my tongue and whisk eggs with my index finger...”
Wu Zetian asked, “What on earth is that supposed to mean???”
They talked all night. The next day, Jiang Yu remembered nothing.
He was arrested as a spy, but after a series of twists and turns, he escaped with his life and was appointed to an official post.
The imperial decree read: “If you haven't achieved anything in three years, bring me your head!”
With no choice, he went to Lingnan, a poor county town.
After three years under Jiang Yu's leadership, Lingnan had become the Tang Dynasty's economic and industrial hub.
That year, many neighboring countries had their eyes on the Tang Dynasty.
At the same time, the struggle between the Wu and Li families was heating up.
Wu Zetian herself was in a difficult position.
Frustrated and out of options, she sent an imperial decree summoning Jiang Yu.
When Jiang Yu saw Wu Zetian, he finally understood: the woman he'd met that night three years ago was none other than the empress herself, Wu Zetian!
This is an alternate version of the Tang Dynasty, with some differences from real history.
