After Lin Yue, a history graduate student, died suddenly, his soul transformed into Li Chengqian, the deposed prince during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty.
At the age of twelve, the foot ailment was beginning to show. His father, Li Shimin, was shining brightly, and his younger brother, Li Tai, had already shown his talents. However, he, the eldest son, was destined to be a tragedy in the history books that led to rebellion due to low self-esteem and surliness, and finally died in depression.
With a thorough understanding of this period of history from his previous life, Lin Yue knew that he could not repeat the same mistakes.
Foot disease? He used his wisdom to make up for his shortcomings and let the court see the prince's calm and far-sightedness.
Patriarchal shadow? He has to show off to win trust, but he also has to cleverly avoid the edge of suspicion.
Brothers fighting? He tore off the mask of hypocrisy and stood firm amidst open and covert attacks.
Undercurrents in the court, wars on the frontier, and squabbling between clans... The historical knowledge of the past life is his trump card, and the thinking of modern people is his sharp edge.
From the sensitive and weak prince with low self-esteem to the strategizing prince, Li Chengqian grasped the thread of fate in his hand.
In this life, he not only wants to rewrite his own ending, but also wants to make the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty shine with a different light.
"I, Li Chengqian, will never be a footnote in history books!"
