The Fake Imperial Scion: Making Tang Great Again

In the first year of Shenlong, the Li Tang dynasty was restored. The entire court cried, “Long live the emperor!” They all said an age of prosperity was about to return. But I alone knew that Empress Wei was tightening her grip on power, the Wu faction had yet to be purged, and Prince Xiang and the princesses were each harboring their own schemes. I used my skills in the bedchamber to win Shangguan Wan'er’s favor, while passing myself off as Li Yixun, a fallen member of the imperial family. My bloodline was fake, my identity made up, and only my ambition was real. No one understood power games better than I did, and no one knew the Tang dynasty better than I did. Of course, no one knew better than I how to make an empire great again!
