Because of the homophone in his name, Wei Qing opens his eyes and finds himself transmigrated into the body of the Han Dynasty's god of war, Wei Qing.
Except he's the teenage beggar version!
An illegitimate son, a stable hand, living in a shack, surviving on bran and scraps...
Princess Yangxin is about to marry the short-lived Marquis Pingyang. Wei Qing won't get his turn until she's widowed at forty.
Following the original course of history, he'll have to spend ten years as a slave before rising to power through his sister, Wei Zifu...
Wei Qing thinks, how could he put up with that?
Fortunately, he now has the credentials of a Chinese literature PhD from his previous life, along with the makings of the great general Wei Qing.
His rise to the top begins in no time.
In this life, he wields a writer's brush in one hand and a killing sword in the other!
He steals Princess Yangxin away from Marquis Pingyang, so she starts calling him “husband” at just nineteen.
He can compose poetry and analyze the classics when he steps back, and write policy essays for the civil service exams when he steps forward. With his pen, he can govern a great nation; on horseback, he can bring peace to the realm.
He recites Ode to the Epang Palace and shatters the scholars of the Imperial Academy's worldview. He writes the Memorial on the Northern Expedition and makes Emperor Wu of Han weep as he calls him “Father Chancellor.”
He crushes the Xiongnu ten years ahead of schedule and raises Huo Qubing to become his number one fan.
A state monopoly on salt and iron? Sorry, his sun-drying method will multiply the imperial treasury's wealth tenfold!
A civil service examination system? He'll introduce it eight hundred years ahead of schedule!
With his own strength, he extends the Han Dynasty's life by three hundred years, turning Emperor Wu into Emperor Little Brother Wu!
The official histories record: He extended the Han by three hundred years, and his achievements surpassed those of Han Xin and Zhang Liang!
Wild histories claim: He spent the night in Weiyang Palace, while the emperor personally brought him a basin of foot-washing water!
Princess Yangxin: Wait, why is my consort even more outrageous than my little brother, Emperor Wu of Han?
Hurry up and update it, it's still very interesting. The plot is to marry the princess and join the court. You can make things to exchange for rewards, or some other technology.
Come on, it looks great! ❤️
Interesting, interesting, quite interesting
