The Rebel Son of the Tang Dynasty

After transmigrating to the Tang Dynasty during the pseudo-Zhou period, Li Xian received a promise from the System: if Empress Wu Zetian had him executed, he could return to the modern era and become a tycoon. So he set off on a spectacular campaign of courting death. Until one day, Wu Zetian finally lost patience and roared with fury: “Guards! Drag him away! Give him a cup of poisoned wine!” That afternoon, the imperial guards carried Li Xian out of his princely residence, where he had been eagerly awaiting his death, and even dressed him in a yellow robe. Zhang Jianzhi said, “Your Majesty remained calm in the face of danger and embraced death without fear. You are truly a descendant of Emperor Taizong! We beg Your Majesty to ascend the throne at once!” Li Xian struggled in despair. “Let go of me! I still have to get back to the modern era! You’ve ruined everything for me!” Di Renjie said, “Your Majesty is a peerless ruler, one the world sees only once in an age. Only Your Majesty can make the Tang Dynasty great again!”
