A Fine Son-in-Law for the Tang Dynasty

As he is being welcomed back into his ancestral family, the modern-day Zhangsun Chong is sucked into an apocalypse dimension. Desperate to see his parents again, he has no choice but to be sent to the Tang Dynasty, where he becomes Zhangsun Chong, the Tang princess's husband!

In the Tang Dynasty, he knows no one and has no idea how things work. Of course he needs to cling to the biggest powerhouse. The emperor is at the top, so Li Er it is!

Li Er is a good emperor, a successful ruler, but not a good brother, son, or father.

To secure his place at the most powerful man's side, Zhangsun Chong goes all out to curry favor with his uncle-by-marriage Li Er, helping him show filial respect to the Retired Emperor and whip the princes into shape.

Then he discovers, to his dismay, that even this isn't enough. Apart from Zhangsun Chong, the other sons-in-law are no good either, so he has to help Li Er whip them into shape too.

Li Er gestures grandly, spittle flying as he points to the land. “One good son isn't enough. I want a whole bunch of good sons. One good son-in-law isn't enough. I want a whole bunch of good sons-in-law.”

Zhangsun Chong timidly raises his hand. “Are you sure you're training princes and sons-in-law, and not raising pigs, herding cattle, and tending horses?”
