A Commoner of Great Qin: Did the First Emperor Hear My Inner Thoughts?

Chen Chen transmigrates to the Qin dynasty and becomes Chen Ergou, the son of an impoverished commoner in Guanzhong. His family owns nothing, his father is ill, and his mother is consumed by worry. Survival is a struggle.

When the First Emperor makes an imperial tour, Chen Chen cries out in his heart, “Long live the mighty Ancestral Dragon!” To his surprise, Ying Zheng hears his thoughts.

The mindset of a modern wage slave collides with an iron-fisted empire. Chen Chen complains about harsh laws and curses corrupt officials under his breath, unaware that the First Emperor is quietly taking note.

A casual suggestion about improving farming tools sends shockwaves through the palace. A nobody has set the wheels of history turning.

Remnants of the Six States still remain, and political schemes roil the court. He wants to lie flat, but gets swept into the heart of the storm.

From selling himself to save his father to serving in a noble household, from an insignificant commoner to the ruler’s secret agent.

Every thought he has is rewriting the fate of Qin.
