The Empress's Favorite Bastard Minister

Shen Chen transmigrates to the Great Qian Dynasty, a realm unknown to history. To stay alive, he sets out to make a name for himself, never expecting to meet the Empress. From then on, everything spirals beyond control.

He joins the Embroidered Uniform Guard, punishing the wicked and eliminating evil.

At court, he battles treacherous ministers and brings princes to justice.

At the border, he crushes Northern Liang, defeats the Turks, and repels the Wu Kingdom. He campaigns across the land, making the Empress of Great Qian the most powerful ruler in the world.

In business, he invents refined salt, spirits, glass, perfume, and more, becoming the richest merchant in the realm.

Before he knows it, Shen Chen has reached the pinnacle of Great Qian.
