Transmigrating to the Great Qian: I'll Build Another Golden Age

The number-one assassin, Long Cheng, transmigrates into the body of a dissolute heir who is about to be forced into breaking off his engagement. To his surprise, the prince's heir, who does nothing but eat, drink, and make merry, is targeted for assassination. The forces lurking in the shadows can hardly wait to plunge the situation into chaos. The Great Qian court is on the brink of upheaval, facing a crisis unseen in a century. The ailing old emperor shows no sign of recovery, and several princes can no longer contain themselves. Beneath the surface, a struggle for the throne is gathering force. Mongolian cavalry raid the northern frontier year after year, Western Xia in the northwest watches like a tiger ready to pounce, and coastal Japanese pirates burn, kill, and plunder. Within the realm, the White Lotus Society, organized by remnants of the previous dynasty, deceives the people and wreaks havoc across the provinces. The Beggars' Sect has disciples spread throughout the land, numbering over a million and operating beyond the government's control. As the heir to the Prince of Jingzhou, he may be descended from nobility, but on the chessboard of power he is no more than a useless piece, a little too conspicuous and liable to be discarded at any moment. The original owner may have been a useless piece, but Long Cheng is not. Since he has been given a second life, he will tear a hole in the sky itself.
