Traveling through the Mid-Tang Dynasty, he became Yuan Zhen, the most notorious scumbag in the Mid-Tang Dynasty.
Coming from a poor and humble family, with a background of separatist vassal towns, his only hope was Li Chun, Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty who was about to ascend the throne.
In order to regain the glory of the Tang Dynasty, Yuan Zhen took the imperial examination route and participated in the county examination, prefecture examination, and provincial examination. He first passed the Ming Dynasty Classics, and then won the position of Zuo Shiyi as the number one scholar, and gained the favor of Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty.
However, time travel is not a treat, but a life-and-death struggle. After entering the court, what awaits Yuan Zhen is not a smooth rise to success, but a purgatory-level test: treacherous ministers are in power inside, and vassal towns are separatist outside. How to break out of such a chaotic situation?
Yuan Zhen entered the situation personally, first impeaching powerful officials with Zuo Shiyi, and then gradually became prime minister. Together with Bai Juyi, Li Shen, Liu Zongyuan, Han Yu, Zhang Yichao, Zhang Huaishen and other famous ministers, they assisted Tang Xianzong to eliminate the feudal towns at the minimum cost and restore the glory of the Tang Dynasty.
