When he woke up,
Li Chengqian discovered that he had transmigrated to the early Zhenguan era,
into a position of great honor: Crown Prince of the Great Tang.
Sounds pretty safe, right?
No.
He was one of the most tragically fated crown princes in history.
Burdened with high expectations, subjected to intense pressure, and pushed step by step toward a breakdown,
he would eventually be deposed, exiled, and dead before his time.
Li Chengqian immediately understood one thing:
Being crown prince was fine, but he absolutely couldn't be a crown prince who was "too outstanding."
So, from that day on:
Other people's crown princes studied hard, trained diligently, and showed off their brilliance.
His crown prince, on the other hand...
would lie flat whenever possible and muddle through whenever he could.
His motto was to put stability first and survival above all.
But there was a problem:
The more he tried to lie flat,
the more the civil and military officials thought him unfathomable.
The more he tried to keep a low profile,
the more his father, Li Shimin, thought the boy had the makings of an emperor.
And life in the Eastern Palace spiraled further and further out of control...
This is the story of
an transmigrator who only wanted to stay alive,
but accidentally sent the history of the Great Tang off course.
