Your Majesty, These Wonders Will Ruin the Country!

Ji Chang transmigrated to an ancient era in a parallel world, carrying an illustrated book of wonders, and became the last ruler of a feudal state. He discovered that by building wonders and changing how people in later generations viewed the dynasty, he could make it as powerful as they claimed it had been. Later generations would say that every one of his elite soldiers wore heavy armor and rode blood-red horses, and that each could defeat a hundred men alone. So his soldiers really did all wear heavy armor and ride mighty steeds, each possessing the strength of a hundred men. To avoid being captured after his state was destroyed, Ji Chang ignored his ministers’ objections and began building wonders on a grand scale: The Terracotta Army, the Star-Attracting Tower, the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, a mighty capital... As one magnificent wonder after another emerged from the earth, people in later generations were thrilled: What? The seven continents and four oceans have been our country’s inalienable territory since ancient times?
