Du He, a burned-out corporate drone, wakes up to find that he has become the son of Du Ruhui, a Tang Dynasty chancellor, and history's infamous spoiled heir who gives his father nothing but trouble.
His father Du Ruhui is about to die young from overwork, and in a few years the whole family will be wiped out in a purge. Du He panics.
To save his family, he starts by helping his dad quit the Zhenguan-era 996 grind!
His life in the Zhenguan era takes a completely unexpected turn:
While other transmigrators battle powerful ministers and scheme behind the scenes, he is busy brewing goji berry and chrysanthemum tea for Du Ruhui, devising a recovery diet for Qin Shubao, and developing an asthma inhaler for Empress Zhangsun.
While others pick sides and fight over the throne, he joins forces with the guileless Fang Yiai to introduce “Tang Dynasty financial management,” and teams up with military scion Qin Huaidao to develop “new training methods.” In between, he has to counsel Li Chengqian and persuade Li Tai to become a geographer.
He only wanted to farm in peace and enjoy life in a golden age, but somehow he ends up improving the curved-plow, promoting smallpox prevention, and bringing prosperity to the people of Guanzhong...
Until one day, Princess Changle, the little girl who flies kites in the imperial palace, looks up at him and asks, “Brother Du He, why are you so different from all the other young masters?”
Du Ruhui: “My son... could he really have the makings of a chancellor?”
Li Shimin looks at the treasury reports and his ever-stronger empire, then slams his hand on the table. “Du He, I entrust both my precious daughter and this Tang realm to you!”
