Cheng An’an, a modern office worker who drops dead after working overtime and finally getting her instant noodles ready, wakes up as a peasant woman outside Xianyang in the Qin dynasty, so poor she can barely afford to eat.
To survive, she decides to put her old skills to use and polish her image with modern knowledge. She rattles off everything from standardized roads and concrete formulas to movable-type printing, and knows all about curved-beam plows, improved irrigation canals, sanitation, and disease prevention. The First Emperor is delighted and appoints her a “remarkable talent.”
Cheng An’an is feeling pretty pleased with herself: no wonder she’s the transmigrated heroine. Fooling an emperor for the ages is a piece of cake.
What she doesn’t know is that from the moment she stepped into the palace hall, Ying Zheng has heard every single one of her thoughts.
Actually the first one to comment? Not bad, not enough. Please keep writing.
