Starting with Tang and Song Poets (Quick Transmigration)

The hot-tempered Lin Wujiu never studies properly. She can't memorize classical poems or prose, and she constantly mixes up historical figures and their stories. Her everyday complaints include, "This is driving me crazy," "I can't understand any of this," and "Why did they have to write so many poems when they had nothing better to do?" After she once again ranks at the bottom in both Chinese and history, her mother angrily kicks her into a game called Study Your Poems and Improve Every Day, declaring, "You can't come out until you beat it." Beep beep. Game notice: [Dear player, hello!] [Each stage features a main character. To clear the stage, you must obtain one of their precious possessions.] [The item must be given willingly by the main character. Stealing, robbing, or tricking them into handing it over is forbidden and will count as cheating.] World One [Endless miles of sorrow in autumn, I am always a traveler. Sick for a hundred years, alone I climb the tower.] "Du is a poor man of humble birth, without any rank or honor. Why are you so determined to pursue me, miss?" "You may not believe me, but I really love your poems." Du Fu: Took in a little menace on a moment's impulse, and now worries about her like a father every day. You long for the prosperous Tang before the An-Shi Rebellion, but I never truly went there. Featured character: Du Fu. World Two [All the birds have flown away. A solitary cloud drifts leisurely off.] "Life is but a passing guest. Little Wujiu, don't be sad." Lin Wujiu glances at Li Bai and snaps, "If you're not sad, then prove it by giving up drinking." She says she admires him, but she's got quite a temper. You said you'd had many dreams, and that your three years in Chang'an were just another dream. Featured characters: Li Bai, Wang Wei, and others. World Three [A cup of wine among spring winds and peach blossoms. A lamp in the rain-soaked rivers and lakes, ten years later.] "My fate is sealed. There's no need for you to worry about me, miss." "I'll ask that Wang Jinggong in Jiangning to plead your case. In exchange, how about you give me a keepsake from your late wife?" "..." The Crow Terrace Poetry Trial swept away not only Su Shi, whose brilliance was unmatched, but also Huang Tingjian, whose spirit was as pure as a mountain breeze. Featured characters: Huang Tingjian, Su Shi, Wang Anshi, and others. World Four [Why doesn't a man wear a Wu hook sword and reclaim the fifty prefectures beyond the mountains?] "You can put up with these despicable villains?" "What difference does it make if I put up with them or not? Chang'an doesn't value me. Why should I stay here?" The world is vast enough for countless brilliant talents, but not for Li Changji at the age of twenty. Featured characters: Li He, Han Yu, and others. World Five [Drunk, I raise a lamp and look at my sword. In a dream, I return to the camps where the horns are sounding.] "Twenty years since crossing south, my dearest wish remains unfulfilled. My life has been adrift. Miss Wujiu, I'm forty-two this year." "You know me?" Lin Wujiu asks, her eyes wide with confusion. Featured character: Xin Qiji. Reader's guide: 1. The heroine won't fall in love with the main character of each stage, the poets themselves, but she will have romantic storylines with supporting characters. She'll also form emotional bonds of varying depths with the poets, though not romantic ones. That's why this is categorized as romance. Please keep that in mind before reading. 2. This is neither a strong-female-lead story nor a wish-fulfillment story. The heroine is just an unpleasant, stubborn middle school kid. Don't expect too much from her. 3. Historical details aren't strictly researched. It's a game, after all. Please go easy on the history buffs. Thanks! Theme: Promote traditional Chinese culture
