A Dream of the Tang Dynasty: The Carefree Prince of Zhenguan

I’m Li Ke, transmigrated into the body of Li Shimin’s third son. I just wanted to be a laid-back slacker, flirt with girls, make a little money, and coast through life.

Who knew there’d be no System, and my golden finger would be nothing more than what I learned from middle-school textbooks?

I figure out how to make ice with saltpeter, and my Crown Prince brother rushes to go into business with me. I casually recite a poem and become a top-tier star in the Tang poetry scene...

Li Shimin: Ke’er, how should we fight the Turks?

I pull out compressed biscuits and frostbite ointment. “Father, let’s eat our fill before we beat them up.”

Li Chengqian: Third Brother, the throne...

I turn around and present a map of the Americas. “Brother, the world is so big. I want to go see it!”

Years later, I’m lounging in the sun in Australia with my princess consort, while the whole court is still working for me as they race to conquer the world.

How did this carefree prince end up turning the Great Tang into an empire on which the sun never sets?
