After Historical Figures Swapped Bodies, They Reached the Pinnacle of Life

An accident throws time and space into chaos, causing many historical figures to switch places.

[Unit One: Yue Fei and Huan Wen Switch Places]

Yue Fei becomes Huan Wen. The moment he opens his eyes, he's on the way to attack the Former Yan of the Xianbei.

His strategist, Xi Chao, is frowning and urging him: "My lord, the Northern Expedition army has traveled a long way. Speed is essential. We must not delay our advance and let this opportunity slip away!"

Yue Fei catches the words "Northern Expedition" and his eyes light up: !!!

Before Xi Chao can finish, he sees his "lord" rush off. "Wait..."

A moment later, Yue Fei comes sweeping back like a gust of wind, carrying Murong Chui's head. "This is the Xianbei bandit, right? Come on, everyone, let's march straight to Longcheng and finish this campaign!"

Xi Chao: ???

Meanwhile, Huan Wen opens his eyes in Zhuxian Town. A young eunuch has brought him an edict from Zhao Gou ordering him to retreat.

Huan Wen tears up the imperial edict without a second thought and shouts, "Drag this man who forged the edict away and execute him! Follow me back to Lin'an. We'll execute Qin Hui and cleanse the court!"

Yue Fei: What an incredible start! Being a powerful minister puts no restraints on me. I'll sweep across the Northern Expedition and conquer the Five Barbarians. Let's do this!

Huan Wen: What an incredible start! Zhao Gou's incompetence is unprecedented. It's time to seize the throne!

Years later, the two switch back.

Yue Fei looks at the officials below, holding out the imperial robe and urging him to ascend the throne. Huan Wen looks at an empire many times larger than before. Each falls into deep thought.

[Unit Two: Wu Zetian and Qin Liangyu Switch Places]

Qin Liangyu becomes Wu Zetian. From then on, the officials' greatest daily headache is finding a way to stop their emperor from personally leading campaigns. "Your Majesty has Taizong's spirit, going three days without taking off her armor! Your Majesty, please stop! The Great Zhou has already taken the Mediterranean!"

Wu Zetian becomes Qin Liangyu. In the chaotic final years of the Ming, "I shall uphold Heaven's will, fight for justice, and contend for the position of ruler of the realm!"

[Unit Three: Zhu Yuanzhang and Fu Jian Switch Places]

Zhu Yuanzhang becomes Fu Jian. When he opens his eyes, Chancellor Wang Meng is sitting across from him, holding a golden knife and sighing. "The Heavenly King's nature is too benevolent. If we spare the Murong clan today, they'll surely cause trouble in the future."

Before he can finish, Zhu Yuanzhang slams the table and leaps to his feet. "Guards! Bring back the entire Xianbei Murong royal family. Skin them all and stuff their hides with straw!"

Wang Meng: ???

Meanwhile, the Four Great Cases of the Hongwu era are about to begin, with heads rolling everywhere.

Fu Jian listens to the report from the Embroidered Uniform Guard and is horrified. "How can we kill so many people? They are all old friends and comrades who helped build this realm together. How could I bear it? Issue my command: spare everyone except the chief criminals, and reward their families generously!"

The officials: ???

[Unit Four: Gao Yang and Emperor Zhezong of Song Switch Places]

Faced with the Song bureaucrats' endless nagging, Gao Yang says, "Are you telling me how to rule? I'll go mad and crush every one of you! Guards, turn the skulls of those censors into pipa lutes and bring them here. I'll perform a tune for everyone!"

Zhao Xu's daily life after becoming Gao Yang: live healthily, give up wine and women, avoid dying young, leave foreign affairs to Duan Shao and Huluguang, and domestic affairs to Yang Yin. Then spend time raising the adorable young Gao Changgong.

Before anyone knows it, our Great Qi has unified the realm!

[Unit Five: Zhang Juzheng and Sima Zhao Switch Places]

Sima Zhao gets a makeover as a Ming ruler. Wanli is terrified. "Help! The teacher is demanding I abdicate as soon as he's arrived!"

Zhang Juzheng becomes the emperor's tutor, and Cao Mao bursts into tears. "Waaah, thank you, Duke Taiyue. My Great Wei is finally saved!"
