The Tang Dynasty's Upright and Declining Lord

A poor nobody transmigrates to the early Tang dynasty and finds himself in the body of a rich young heir. Qin Shou, who has no great ambitions, had originally hoped to coast through life doing nothing. He'd extort money from his cheap parents whenever he could, and when bored, take his Four Bodyguards to collect protection fees. Whether you were a prince, a princess, or a member of the imperial family, everyone had to pay! Don't want to pay protection money? OK! One-on-one or a group fight? What? You don't know what one-on-one means? One-on-one means you take on all Four Bodyguards yourself. A group fight means all four of them take on you. If you don't like it, bring enough money tomorrow! The crafty Cheng Yaojin, willful princesses, famous generals, and ministers all show up in Qin Shou's life. Fine, I'll work hard and use my all-purpose knowledge to transform Tang industry. Whether you're the emperor or some treacherous minister, I'll extort you all the same. I'll rewrite history and watch the Tang dynasty prosper. Whoever rubs me the wrong way gets a beating. I'm a beast, and I'm afraid of nobody! Watch the protagonist climb one step at a time from humble beginnings to the heights of power, becoming the legendary man whom everyone despises and whose presence makes flowers wilt! This is a lighthearted comedy. If there are any historical inaccuracies, please don't take them as fact... Beastly Readers Group (currently empty): 287461239
