Time Travel: the Road to the Emperor

Liu Zifeng accidentally transmigrated to ancient times, but something about this ancient world seemed off. Genghis Khan, Li Shimin, Zhu Yuanzhang, Hong Taiji, and the never-before-heard-of Great Xia divided the northern lands among their various regimes. Yet Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Great Song, whose reign was marred by the Jingkang Humiliation, somehow held the largest territory, controlling most of the south. On top of that, Songtsen Gampo of Tubo was ambitious, while the Western Regions had yet to return to the fold. Each city remained its own country, playing out the myths of kings and princesses from Afanti’s tales. Did any of this make sense? Not a bit! So the goddess’s fair-haired heartthrob, Huangmaofeng, could no longer sit still. He wanted to fight for supremacy and get a taste of being an emperor. Later, he discovered that Empress Ma really was dignified, Empress Zhangsun truly was virtuous, and the women in the Great Song’s imperial harem all had their own tragic stories. But why had characters from Water Margin and Dream of the Red Chamber shown up too? After finally using the emperor’s subjects as cannon fodder to unite every regime, making the Great Han the sole power, he was told there was still Caesar in the west, and Byzantium, the Eastern Roman Empire, in the middle, dividing Europe and Asia in two. Could he put up with that? Hmph, whatever Caesar had seen, he would see too! Whatever Caesar had conquered, he would conquer too! Wherever Caesar couldn’t reach, he would go! This planet was his for the taking!
