Zhao Ji with Two Souls in One Body / 099 + The Young Future Emperor Raised by Two Mothers
[Two female leads + child-rearing + nation-building: watch two women raise an emperor for the ages]
[Blurb]
I, 099, an interstellar civilization rescue System, was reborn as Zhao Ji, the birth mother of Qin Shi Huang.
The good news: I bonded with a human infant rated SSS overall, named Ying Zheng.
The bad news: I can only take over the body at night, while the original Zhao Ji is always trying to abandon the child and run away during the day.
After that...
I taught the little one how to make paper, grow crops, and manufacture gunpowder, bringing out the Four Great Inventions one after another.
Zhao Ji learned to support herself, farm, and raise a child, becoming a farmer's wife respected by all. "I mean, I was only trying to keep myself fed. Does that count?"
Later, we fled all the way back to Qin.
By day, Zhao Ji diligently farmed and raised seedlings to boost yields.
By night, I pored over the history books, a dream-maker laying the road to the future for little Ying Zheng.
[Reader's Guide]
1. Two female leads: a beautiful, pragmatic Zhao Ji by day and a tech-loving System by night. This is not a split personality; two completely different souls share one body and raise the same child.
2. A coming-of-age story, from Ying Zheng at age three to the unification of the realm. Watch an emperor for the ages grow up amid twice as much, and deeply contradictory, motherly love.
3. Nation-building + livestreaming, using interstellar knowledge to outclass the Warring States era, but without an overpowered protagonist. There will be setbacks and growth.
4. This is an alternate-history work. Characters' ages and the event timeline have been artistically adjusted.
This is not orthodox history and contains many original ideas and major changes. The central plot is how women change history, so please read with care if that bothers you.
There is ambition, family affection, and political scheming, but absolutely no romance-brained characters. The main focus is the mother-child bond and love of country.

"An Emperor for the Ages: Reversing the Record of the Five Barbarians' Invasion"
[Blurb]
When the sky screen appeared, Ying Zheng had already been reviewing memorials for four hours.
He frowned and went outside to look. The sky screen was lit up.
The sky screen showed a pot of porridge, but what was boiling in it wasn't rice.
It was Han Chinese people.
During the Five Barbarians' invasion, their iron hooves swept south. Han Chinese were seized and used as army rations, and a thousand years of cultural heritage nearly came to an end.
A young man named Ran Min said, "In this life, I will kill every barbarian and restore the Han realm."
The sky screen then showed the fate of Qin Shi Huang.
"The Qin dynasty fell in its second generation. Zhao Gao usurped power, Li Si was executed by waist-slicing, and Prince Fusu was ordered to die."
Ying Zheng gripped the Tai'e Sword tightly as he stared at the words on the sky screen: "A state founded without legitimacy is bound to suffer internal strife."
Qin Shi Huang: The Great Qin also rose by usurping the Zhou. Will my empire end up like this after I die?
Then Qin Shi Huang saw the reward: hybrid rice yielding a thousand jin per mu, and technology from later generations that could save an era a thousand years of detours.
Qin Shi Huang stared fixedly at the golden rice fields, thinking of the laborers at the Great Wall construction site, the convicts at the Lishan Mausoleum, and all those who had starved to death because there wasn't enough food.
The Star Realm Council said, "Four emperors for the ages will travel to that era, end the chaos, and save all living beings."
"You cannot bring troops or supplies. You may bring only eight people, and your own lives."
Ying Zheng glanced at Fusu behind him, the eldest son he had never truly valued, the son he had once planned to exile by imperial decree.
"Fusu."
"Come with me to war."
He would save that era, and rewrite the fate of the Great Qin.
He did not know what it would cost to change the ending.
At the same time, in three other eras...
In Weiyang Palace, Liu Che saw the sky screen announce: "The Witchcraft Disaster: Crown Prince Liu Ju dies unjustly."
The wine cup in his hand spilled wine all over the floor.
In the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin saw the sky screen recount how he had killed his elder brother and forced his father to abdicate.
Everyone watched him. After a long while, Li Shimin said, "Continue. You were talking about the Turks."
In the Fengtian Hall, Zhu Yuanzhang saw the golden rice fields and leaped to his feet. "Is this rice real or not?"
Zhu Yuanzhang remembered his parents and brothers who had starved to death when he was young, and the bowl of porridge so thin he could see his reflection in it.
Zhu Yuanzhang: "I'll take all of it."
Theme: Use the wisdom of the future to nurture the roots of civilization, and the love of two souls to forge the spirit of an empire
It's not a sophisticated genre, but it's not a novice. I can see that the author has cultural background, the rhythm is just right, and the writing style is also good. There are too many repetitions. What was written in the previous paragraph is written in the next paragraph. What was said in the previous chapter is said in the next chapter. Lu Buwei had to mend that inch of his waist again and again.
Overall it's good, but some of the content is quite repetitive, which makes it seem a bit draggy. Keep up the good work!!! 🌈
The others are okay, but you should catch bugs when you have time. There are a lot of typos😮.
"When it comes to the last sentence, Sister Zhao doesn't..." This is a big bug for the author~ Zhao Ji
Woohoo, is this the end? Not enough 🥺
"The winter in the north is colder than Xianyang..." This is a big bug for the author~ Did it repeat several paragraphs???
"Ying Zheng asked again: "So for Nian..." This is a big bug for the author~ so many years
""A widow observes filial piety for one year, this..." This is a big bug for the author~ Qinwang Road or Qinni Road?
"I don't know how this word spread to China..." This is a big bug for the author~ repeated
I also like 😆 watching Zhao Ji boil eggs for Lu Pheasant. Suddenly I feel like I have raised a daughter. When I think about it, Lu Pheasant is almost the same generation as the First Emperor.
