Lin Ruhai, a Ghost King who has lived in the realm of ghosts for over three hundred years, is suddenly swept up in a temporal rift and sent back three hundred years to the world of Dream of the Red Chamber. In this timeline, he has been dead for many years, so he has no choice but to possess the emperor and walk among the living as Emperor Jingyong.
Lin Ruhai initially thinks this will be nothing more than a simple “vacation”: getting revenge on his enemies from his past life and protecting his daughter until she can return to the realm of ghosts with him a hundred years later.
But before he can do anything, he begins to notice all sorts of clues in this world. The more he thinks about them, the more horrifying they seem.
It turns out this world is a chessboard in a game between several factions. Everyone's fate has already been neatly arranged, and even what he thought was a lucky break was actually the result of powerful beings joining forces to turn back time, defying the laws of Heaven and Earth.
And Lin Ruhai is a piece on this chessboard, one who is weighty yet almost beneath notice.
He isn't even an important supporting character. The real protagonists are his two children.
He is merely a stepping stone that brought them into this world.
This book is not supernatural or scary, and there is no emotional or physical angst. It's a warm, sweet, feel-good story~
Villainize Chanism, Jia Mu, and the second household. No love for Baochai, but Jia She is not villainized.
The human race will have a twist; they are not evil supporting characters.
There's a bit of an ensemble cast.
Lin Xu and Lin Daiyu are the real protagonists. Their father Lin has more scenes early on.
Lin Daiyu's love interest is the beautiful and outrageously powerful eldest prince of the Phoenix clan, Kong Xuan.
Content warning: Lin Ruhai's love interest is the former Emperor Yong, now the Great Emperor Gouchen, Gouchen, who has left his mortal body and returned to the primordial world. This is a danmei storyline!
Lin Ruhai is not the protagonist, though he has a lot of scenes early on. Lin Daiyu is the protagonist! The entire story revolves around her, though she appears a little later!
Lin's older brother is also a major protagonist!
The true names and forms of the powerful beings in the primordial world:
Emperor Yong, Tu Zhen (Great Emperor Gouchen, Gouchen)
Daiyu (Spring Goddess, Jiangzhu)
Kong Xuan (eldest prince of the Phoenix clan)
Lin Xu (Great Emperor Zhenwu, Xuanming)
Wang Yue'e (Holy Mother Jinling, Jinling)
Wang Hu (his true identity in the mortal world: Crown Prince Tu Hui; White Tiger Emperor, Baiwen)
Jiang Yunyun (White Tiger constellation, Baiyun)
Couples in this story:
Lin Ruhai x Gouchen
Daiyu x Kong Xuan
Xuanming x Jinling
Baiwen x Baiyun
This story has an absurdly wild premise and lots of original worldbuilding, with plenty of melodrama. Sending love~
The primordial world setting in this story draws on Investiture of the Gods, Journey to the West, the Classic of Mountains and Seas, folk legends, and other sources of ancient mythology. Any similarities in the lore are purely coincidental.
The characters' values do not represent the author's. Please don't attack the author personally.
Everything in this book is fictional and has no connection to real life.

Five Hundred Million from the Start [Transmigrate into a Book + Entertainment Industry]
The Fair-Skinned Beauty Ai Li's Lucky Days
After waking up one day, Ai Li, a walking good-luck charm, discovers she has transmigrated into a parallel-world version of herself: the villainess in her fake best friend's book.
She's the biggest obstacle in the way of the male and female leads' romance in an old-fashioned, melodramatic love story about heartbreak, reunion, and second chances, constantly creating misunderstandings and setbacks. And she meets a particularly miserable end as a disposable villainess.
Now she's just gotten divorced, been exposed in a pile of scandals, and is facing a company termination, demands from brand sponsors for compensation, and fans turning against her after leaving her fandom.
But she got five hundred million in divorce compensation!!!
Ai Li: With a fortune in hand, who needs a man? Isn't being my own queen so much better?
Wouldn't it be great to dabble in finance and investments, and become a domineering businesswoman who can crush her rivals with a snap of her fingers?
The male and female leads?
Kids, go play somewhere else!
Stop getting in the way of your big sister making money!
The whole story is absurd, melodramatic, and completely unrestrained.
Theme: Building a harmonious, stable society, and working together toward prosperity and shared wealth.
This article spans a long time. Can I see the end?
Ah, this, I feel like Kong Xuan is stupid.
Suddenly, I realized that Daiyu and her scheduled CP were not a good match?
For a more convenient operation, just use the ancestor's dream or something. The emperor scolds him and asks him to do it honestly, and the operation will not be so restrictive.
Let's get these things sorted out quickly!! Collaborating with foreigners is simply treason!! But the Supreme Emperor still thinks about his own rights. In his opinion, as long as he is good, the country will not want to do anything!! Jiangzhu and the others don't have the time to tangle with these people. What they have to deal with is the way of heaven!!
