After transmigrating as Zhao Kuangyin's sworn third brother, Zheng En awakened the Dao Fruit of Longevity, gaining one attribute point every year. After helping Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin unite the realm, he lived in seclusion for forty years, accumulating an absurd number of attribute points. He had planned to lie low until the end of time, but then he heard that Emperor Zhenzong wanted to sign the Chanyuan Treaty. "Tribute payments? Not a single inch of Song territory, not a single coin!"
The white-haired old ancestor hefted the black tiger copper hammer personally bestowed on him by Emperor Taizu and rode alone to block the Liao army's ten thousand cavalrymen. Behind him, Kou Zhun shouted, "I beg the old general to set the realm right!" Before him, Emperor Zhenzong bowed his head. "Imperial Uncle, I know I was wrong..."
From then on, he smashed corrupt officials in court, carved a path through enemy ranks on the battlefield, and subdued the martial world with his hammer. He tore up humiliating treaties with his own hands and forged a path for the northern campaigns with a single step.
As the emperor's grand-uncle, he lectured him like a grandson, his seniority towering over every official in court;
A longevity-focused story: live long enough and you become invincible;
With his black tiger copper hammer, he struck down foolish rulers and beat corrupt officials, backed by the emperor's special permission to carry an "Imperial Death-Exemption Token";
He turns a shameful chapter of history around and builds a formidable Song dynasty, with thrilling action from start to finish;
Here, there is no smoke from the beacon fires falling silent after every arrow has been spent atop the walls of Taiyuan; no "Jingkang" trampled beneath iron hooves on the frozen Yellow River; no frost forming from the cooling blood and twelve golden summons on the railings of the Fengbo Pavilion;
Emperor Zhenzong personally ordered the creation of the Martial Suppression Bureau, tasked with quelling unrest and disloyalty across the martial world and the imperial court!
When all the officials kneel, only he stands and tells the emperor: Your ancestor conquered this realm so you wouldn't kneel down and give it away!
Here, you'll find the scheming and intrigue of the imperial court; the clash of arms on blood-soaked frontiers; peaceful lives in cities that never sleep; a flourishing Song dynasty where a hundred schools of thought contend; and the loyalties and grudges of the martial world.
PS: This is an alternate-history fantasy with an imaginative premise. Please don't judge it too strictly by historical accuracy! Hope you enjoy!
The novel is very exciting. I have always liked the protagonist Zheng En, a powerful general. It is very well written about the damage caused by war, and there is also a lot of integration of martial arts. Keep up the good work and keep up the good work!
The writing is well organized and worth reading. I hope it will continue to be updated to show scenes from different periods throughout the Song Dynasty.
Good book, worth reading, highly recommended
Generally speaking, the writing is good and can bring out the feeling, but there is just too little.
Good, the author keeps up the good work
