Being Su Shi's Son in the Northern Song Dynasty

------Lie Flat Version--------

Top chef Su Guo transmigrates to the Northern Song dynasty with a Food System, ready to make a name for himself and take the world by storm.

But when he cooks a delicious crucian carp and tofu dish for his father, who’s been thrown in jail after offending his superior, he somehow gets a one-thousand-point negative satisfaction rating?!

Looking at the death poem his father has sent out,

Su Guo is left speechless.

So the Su in his name is Su Dongpo’s Su.

And the superior his father offended was none other than the emperor!

What’s the point of working hard, then? Let’s get exiled with Father and travel all over the Song dynasty!

------Ambition Version-------

He picks up a naturally strong brother along the way. They eat, drink, and have fun together, but somehow there’s a rebellion and a flood.

Looking at the devastation and the people’s suffering,

“I’m joining the army. I’ll defeat the barbarians and reclaim the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun!”

Looking at the sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, peanuts… just unlocked in his System,

“Then I’ll join the imperial court and be your strongest support.

Northern Song scholars have made a tradition of bullying military men. How can I let my brother fight alone?”

So Su Guo works hard (not really), and encourages his father and everyone around him to work hard too.

He returns to Bianjing and rises to the post of chancellor.

But wait, why does that famously beautiful and willful young lady from the Di family look exactly like his good brother?!

P.S. A slow-burn coming-of-age story. There’s farming and food in the early stages, and, well, farming and food later too. Let’s watch Little Su grow up together~

The Short-Lived Princess in Late Tang

Li Zhaoning used to think the most dangerous thing she’d ever done was work as a war correspondent for two years.

Later, she switched to reporting on people’s livelihoods and agriculture, thinking she could finally enjoy a peaceful life, with sunshine and wind as the worst of her problems.

Who knew she’d get electrocuted on her next trip to the countryside?

She opens her eyes: it’s the year 867, in the Tang dynasty. She’s Princess Tongchang, eighteen years old, and engaged to be married.

Sounds like a top-tier scenario.

But.

Princess Tongchang dies in 870, at the age of twenty.

That’s three years from now.

Her prospective husband is dissolute, and unofficial histories even claim he had an affair with her mother.

Her father, Emperor Yizong of Tang, is either building temples or on his way to build temples.

The Tang dynasty is also nearing its end. In a few years, Huang Chao will march into Chang’an, and the rebellions and breakaway regimes will plunge everything into chaos.

To sum it up:

The mess is a disaster, her life is short, her father is unreliable, and her prospective husband is a definite no.

Li Zhaoning clenches her fists.

At least she brought her pocket dimension with her.
