Datang: My Imperial Career Started with Blasting

In the first year of Wude, something strange happened in Chang'an City. The nine-year-old Taiyuan County Prince Li Chengzong, the crown prince's legitimate son, suddenly became enlightened after going through hell for a while. He did not recite poems or make any objections. He pestered the old god Xian Qiping of Louguan Tao all day long, clamoring to make elixirs. Saltpeter, sulfur, charcoal... The "erysipelas" that ordinary alchemists avoid, in the hands of this child, turned out to be a magical power that changed the world, blasting a path to the emperor. When the smoke of gunfire spread over the palace wall, the history of the Tang Dynasty was waiting to be blown out of a new page.
