The bad news: he transmigrated. The good news: it's the Tang dynasty.
And there's more good news: he has been born into the most powerful second generation in the Tang, the biological son of Princess Pingyang Zhao and Duke Huo Chai Shao, and the nephew of Emperor Li Shimin himself.
With impeccable roots and a background powerful enough to reach the heavens, he's born with every advantage.
But... faced with a from-the-start setup this perfect, Chai Lingwu initially just wants to lean on his imperial uncle and his duke father and enjoy the life of a pampered princeling in this world without human rights.
Who could have guessed?
When he looks back, the ground behind him is strewn with the bones of his enemies. Before him lies the magnificent, flourishing Tang dynasty, vast and beautiful!
So Chai Lingwu strikes a pose and recites: “The great river flows east, sweeping away the heroes of ages past. West of the old fort, they say, was the Red Cliffs where Zhou Yu of the Three Kingdoms fought. Piercing rocks, crashing waves, surging spray like a thousand heaps of snow. A land so picturesque, how many heroes it produced in its time...”
