In the tenth year of Zhenguan, Li Chengqian, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, fell from his horse and fell into a coma. When he woke up, he was flooded with fragmented historical memories - he knew that he would eventually lose his moral integrity due to foot illness, fail in his rebellion, and end up being deposed and exiled, and ending up with hatred. In order to save his life, the prince, who was supposed to be fighting for his heir apparent, resolutely embarked on the opposite path of "self-degradation and seeking to be abolished".
He has two life-saving trump cards: incomplete historical memory, which can predict his own death but cannot see the details; reverse crow's mouth, what he sincerely hopes for will be reversed. Therefore, he deliberately raised chickens and dogs, indulged in "strange and obscene skills", hoping to be rejected by his father; he took the initiative to submit a letter to resign as the prince, hoping to escape unscathed; he even deliberately alienated the government, hoping to be impeached by the ministers.
But fate had to play a joke on him: he was praised for raising chickens and fighting dogs for "observation of farm work", for improving farm tools he was awarded the title of "caring about people's livelihood", and recruiting dandy boys to train a team of capable assistants. Even when he resigned, he was praised by the officials as "a great virtue of self-examination". The more you want to show off, the more your reputation will grow; the more you want to escape, the heavier your responsibility will be.
From being afraid of power and desperately evading, to being forced to take responsibility and taking the initiative to take responsibility, Li Chengqian not only gained the loyalty of the dandy brothers and the help of talented girls from Jiangnan through repeated ridiculous operations, but also untied the father-son relationship with Li Shimin. From a hapless prince who just wanted to save his life, he lived in tears to become a wise prince who supported the future of the Tang Dynasty.
This is a life-saving comedy of "if you fail to succeed, you will become a god", and it is also a journey of growth hidden in intrigue and tenderness - the prince who least wanted to be the emperor ended up being the most qualified heir.
