[Transmigration, ancient setting, passionate, comedy, farming, conquest]
Shi Yi, a doctoral student in classical literature, woke up to find that he had transmigrated to the An Lushan Rebellion and become a lowlife street thug outside Chang’an.
From the start, it was hell mode: rebel forces were at the gates, and human lives were worth less than weeds.
His only golden finger was the supposedly “useless” mountain of old books in his head!
“Yi, how about a wife?”
Faced with the “spoils of war” his friend had foisted on him, a wealthy young woman caked in mud but with a stubborn glint in her eyes, Shi Yi could only curse.
A wife? I can barely keep myself alive!
To survive, he used his knowledge of phonology to find his way and his understanding of history to evade the rebels. He recited a couple of lines from the Book of Songs and mused about life, only for this supreme beauty from one of the Five Great Families and Seven Noble Clans to mistake him for a reclusive master!
Shi Yi: “I just want to find somewhere to farm and keep my head down!”
Everyone else: “Such extraordinary talent, sir! If you refuse to enter public life, what will become of all under heaven?”
It looks good, the content and characters are all good
