The idle prince is not a wise prince. Zhao Yan transmigrates into the body of the third son of Emperor Yingzong of the Northern Song Dynasty. Originally infamous, he has no desire to compete for fame and fortune. He only wants to be a leisurely prince, drinking wine and enjoying delicious food. It would be even more perfect if he had a few beautiful women by his side. However, as a person from later generations, Zhao Yan's words and actions were like a searchlight in the night among the ancient people, radiating a dazzling light. Whether it was the various items he brought with him when he traveled through time or his own talents, Zhao Yan inadvertently attracted everyone's attention, and at the same time, he was slowly changing the situation between the Song, Liao and Xia kingdoms. When the people of Song looked back many years later, they found that their life trajectory had been led in another direction by Zhao Yan, this idle prince.

5 时 The Heart of Time 时光之心 Night in the Grid格子里的夜晚Infinite Myriad Worlds2.0M WordsCompleted Transmigration may offer ambitious people or down-and-out souls weighed down by regret a chance to change their lives and take part in the grand endeavor of “reviving fallen states and continuing extinct lineages.” Yet transmigration also means that while you can ask any number of wives whenever you cannot make up your mind about domestic affairs, you lose the convenience of asking Baidu whenever you cannot decide on matters abroad.

Time travel might offer ambitious individuals or those filled with regret a chance to change their lives and become involved in the grand undertaking of "reviving a fallen kingdom and continuing an interrupted lineage." Time travel also means that while you can consult your wives for domestic matters, you lose the convenience of consulting Baidu for external matters, the "Marlboro" and "Hongtashan" cigarettes you always have on your lips, the "Wuliangye" and "Remy Martin" liquors you drink, the "Zippo" cigarettes that are both a lifesaver and a cool accessory, and even the "Taitai Le," "Maggi," or "Lee Kum Kee" liquors you crave for more varied flavors... Only after the iron curtain, stretching across the torrent of time and space, falls will the time travelers realize how much they miss that world and how much they should cherish it. The protagonist, Ye Tao, is just one of the many time travelers. As an industrial designer, someone whose very being is steeped in quality of life and design philosophy, he has no choice but to lay out his blueprints and build everything he can think of, one by one... Adding a few extra touches along the way.
