   I recommend this one. It is similar to Confucianism and Taoism. It is already considered one of the better ones in the tomato genre. The author also has another book that you can check out.

    Kong Lang, a modern academic scumbag, is a top-notch entertainer who is proficient in idioms. He believes that "as long as I have no morals, no one can kidnap me morally." When he opens his eyes, he transforms into a loser in the world of Confucianism and Taoism. He enters the princess's mansion based on his appearance and is ridiculed by the literati in the capital for being a useless person. Unexpectedly, he activated the [Chinese Culture Music System], twirled the quotation, and punched the Confucian scholar with a punch; randomly selected cards to see the face, sometimes "Preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion" blasted through the ceiling of talent, sometimes "Complete Collection of Earthly Love Words" teased the crazy eldest princess.
