The Unfilial Emperor (Quick Transmigration)

My new novel, After I Became the Daughter of the Richest Man, is now available! My upcoming novel, Top of the Imperial Examinations (Imperial Exams), is open for preorders. Please add them to your reading lists, thank you!

Confucius said: If, for three years after his father's death, a son does not change his father's ways, he may be called filial.

Of the three things that are unfilial, having no descendants is the worst... But I'm a disobedient son!

Since I've transmigrated and become an emperor, why should I make myself suffer?

A bold life begins with being an unfilial emperor:

Reform as soon as I ascend the throne. Building a strong, prosperous nation and developing infrastructure is the way forward.

If I have no sons, I still have daughters. Wouldn't it be great to establish an empress?

[Qin Shi Huang] No matter who my real father is, everyone will call me Dad from now on.

Today, everyone thinks I don't know I'm Qin Shi Huang.

Everyone calls me Zhao Zheng. Only I know I'm Ying Zheng, the future Qin Shi Huang.

I had two fathers. Well, later I got a stepfather, too. One died of illness, and I had the other two killed.

So naturally, I am the most unfilial father-emperor in all of history.

I tore up the ridiculous scripts other people had written for me and founded the Great Qin Empire, uniting all under heaven.

Later, I transmigrated and became the emperor of another dynasty.

Ha! You think that will change me? What a joke!

[Emperor Xiaozong of Song] You be your Wanyan Gou, and I'll be my Zhao Buxiao. First, I'll clear Yue Fei's name and launch a Northern Expedition.

[Emperor Xiaozong of Ming] You can love your Wan Guifei, while I cherish my Empress Zhang. First, I'll establish monogamy.

[Emperor Hui of Han] You be your shameless rogue, and I'll be my little intellectual. First, I'll make sure Mother is happy and protect my younger brothers.

Note: This is alternate history. The characters transmigrate into unofficial histories and wish-fulfillment stories, or their actions create parallel worlds. This is not the real world.

My new novel, After I Became the Daughter of the Richest Man, is now available! May you all find yourself rolling in wealth!

Overworked office worker Shen Qingye has transmigrated into a book!

The good news: She's the daughter of the richest man, and on her way to becoming the upgraded version of a Prince of Yan's consort.

The bad news: The Prince of Yan ran off with his first love. After using the Shen family's money to rise to power, he plans to wipe out the entire Shen family!

Shen Qingye immediately pays to level up. She won't be the Prince of Yan's consort. She'll be the crown princess instead, even if the sickly crown prince in the original story is destined to die young.

"I may have nothing else, but I have money. As long as the crown prince can be cured, I don't care how much it costs!"

The emperor is so moved by her "devotion" to the crown prince that, in a moment of enthusiasm, he agrees to open sea routes, trade routes, and border markets...

The Prince of Yan waits and waits for news of the crown prince's death, only to hear that the merchant's daughter he rejected, Shen Qingye, has ascended the throne with the crown prince and become empress!

Crown Prince: "What can I say? She offered too much..."

Upcoming novel 2: Top of the Imperial Examinations (Imperial Exams), an examination-system native versus a transmigrator.

++Tang Mingke only learned after he died that someone had stolen his fate.

Originally, he could read at three, write poetry at five, and pass the lowest imperial examination at seven. At sixteen, he became the youngest top scholar in the dynasty.

He married a princess and became the dynasty's chief minister, living the life of a winner who stood below only one person and above everyone else.

But everything changed when his father brought home an illegitimate elder half-brother born to a mistress.

The year Tang Mingke should have passed the lowest examination, he fell ill and was bedridden. His half-brother, Zhou Wenyuan, passed, while Tang Mingke's fever lasted three days.

The year he should have become top scholar, a famous Qinhuai courtesan hanged herself outside his home, claiming he had seduced and abandoned her.

His half-brother produced evidence that Tang Mingke had cheated in the examinations. Unable to defend himself, Tang Mingke lost his academic honors and became a commoner.

Though he was the legitimate son, someone even reported that he was a false son who had been switched at birth.

And so his former illegitimate half-brother became the legitimate heir, passed the examinations as top scholar, married a princess, and became her consort...

Meanwhile, Tang Mingke was driven from his home and left destitute on the streets. He died of hunger and cold in the first heavy snowfall of winter in the capital.

Reborn, he sees the young man trailing behind his father. This time, he won't foolishly treat him like an elder brother and let him steal his literary talent and destiny.

Even if he leaves this marquis's residence and loses the support of his family,

Only his name will appear at the top of the imperial examination results.

Theme: Be an unfilial emperor who reforms and strengthens the nation.
