   I transmigrated as Gao Qiu's eldest son, infamous throughout the city. My cousin, Gao Yanei, wanted to ambush Lin Niangzi, but I swiftly suppressed him—she's the woman I've set my sights on. Lin Chong is frustrated? I'll promote him, using him as my weapon. Cai Jing and Tong Guan want to use the Gao family as pawns? I'm the one holding the pieces. Liangshan is recruiting? Don't even think about becoming an outlaw; I'll take them all, men and horses. I trained a new army and stockpiled provisions ten years in advance; before the Jin army even moved, my blade arrived first. Hu Sanniang's heart turned to me, Li Shishi followed me, Gao Qiu was stunned, Emperor Huizong panicked, and the Jin army collapsed. From the Grand Commandant's mansion to the Golden Palace, the Song dynasty's rule is now mine, the Gao family's. [Smirk]

   Reader note

   The idea originated from reading Li Yibing's biography of Su Dongpo, where I discovered that Su Dongpo's youngest son, Su Dun, who died young, was the same age as Li Qingzhao and Emperor Huizong of Song. I wanted to give Su Dongpo a happy ending where he could realize his political ideals, and to give the legendary Li Qingzhao a stage to fully display her talents. (All historical figures will be as close to their original personalities as possible, with no personal interpretations.) (A logically sound and satisfying story; the protagonist's cheat codes are the essential memory ability for time travelers and the exceptional learning talent inherited from his father, Su Dongpo.) (The marriage will follow the example of predecessors like Sima Guang, Wang Anshi, Su Zhe, and Emperor Xiaozong of Ming—monogamy and soulmates. The female lead will not be weakened; the greatest female writer of all time will fully demonstrate her talents, shining brightly in the newspaper and media industries, but because this is a male-oriented story, the female lead's role will not be particularly prominent.) (All the technological advancements the protagonist pursues are feasible under ancient conditions.)
