The Lin Family Heir's Road to Success [Dream of the Red Chamber]

As zombies besieged the city, Lin Ye blew himself up, taking the Zombie King down with him. He thought it was all over, but instead, he was reincarnated. He was born into a wealthy family in ancient times. Four wet nurses cared for him, along with who knew how many maids and matrons. His grandmother, father, and mother all treasured him dearly. Was this Heaven's way of making it up to him, letting him lie flat and take it easy? When he turned one month old, terrible news arrived from his maternal family. As he went to visit, he heard some familiar names: Jia Zhu, Yuanchun, Jia Lian. Lin Ye: A bolt from the blue! This was the world of Dream of the Red Chamber, and he had become the eldest son of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min! Wait, Sister Lin is an orphan with no siblings. Does that mean she dies young? That won't do! He stayed on his guard as he grew up, dodging one, two, three... assassination attempts. Were they schemes by the women of the inner household? Political rivals trying to suppress the Lin family? Or was the plot of Dream of the Red Chamber purging him as an anomaly? As he grew up, he gradually uncovered the clues, and the reputation of the Lin family's brilliant young heir spread far and wide. He became the quintessential "other people's child." He excelled in the imperial examinations at a young age, then achieved an impressive record as an official. Working with the Ministry of Works, he invented many useful devices, surveyed the resources in nearby seas, and discovered several incredibly valuable mineral deposits, turning everyone's attention to the ocean, this vast treasure house... His parents were proud of him, while Second Madam Wang, whose son became his tragic foil, seethed with jealousy. Sadly, no matter how much she cursed him before the Buddha, all she could do was watch him rise higher and higher. And Sister Lin? With her parents and elder brother by her side, she was naturally the apple of the Lin family's eye. Reading guide: 1. An alternate dynasty, updated daily. 2.
