Chen Yuan’s soul transmigrates into the Great Wei dynasty, where he becomes the local equivalent of Fan Jin: a down-and-out scholar with nothing but the four bare walls of his home.
Looking at his mother, who is past fifty, and his lovely young wife, whom he has only just married,
Chen Yuan thinks it over: Success is his only option! And the only road to success seems to be studying for the imperial examinations!
Many years later, he looks back at the fame and fortune that have passed like fleeting clouds.
Chen Yuan can’t help but declare with bold pride:
I!
Chen Yuan!
The Grand Secretary who rose from humble beginnings!
The pillar of Great Wei!
Well written, worth reading
