The river of history has undergone an unknown transformation, sinking into a reflection of the present. Ancient Celestial Beings have resurrected from the past, pursuing forbidden secrets. Their mighty powers use time as a chessboard, all living beings as pieces, forging a plan for eternity.

Familiar legends, folkloric ghosts, and even once-admired heroes have been distorted and transformed into strange creatures that have sunk into the abyss of the past.

Once-wise and mighty emperors have become evil dragons, hovering over their empires, using their aging and massive bodies to crave the fruit of immortality, their ambergris transformed into demons that devour the common people.

Heroes fallen in battle, illuminated by candlelight, resurrected from a mountain of corpses, establishing the Corpse Reincarnation Royal Court

. By the banks of the Red River, an ancient transmigrator sighs at the moon.

The Horse-Faced Silkworm Lady, the Star Tai Sui, the ancient Heavenly Court, the Silver Dynasty... countless realms of disease vie for passage beyond the present.

Only those who travel through history can reverse the flow of time, excise the transformation, and extract historical skills and relics from the river of history. Even worse, they can usurp the achievements of the most ancient heroes and etch their own legacy into the past.

After resigning and returning home, Jiang Yan accidentally stumbles upon a Rice God of Wealth ritual and overhears the lamentations of the River of History. This awakens his historical talent: the embryo of the Dark Mother Goddess, nurturing countless offspring. Transmuting all disease into nourishment, she nurtures spiritual pets, abilities, memories, rules, and other "offspring" under her control.

From the Corpse Reincarnation Court, he nurtures the Corpse Reincarnation Phoenix; from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he nurtures the God of Peace...

Gazing at the decaying River of History, Jiang Yan sighs,

"If I could transform history into nourishment, perhaps I could truly nurture a..."

"Forbidden Immortal God!"

The third year of Wanli’s reign, in spring.

The Grand Secretary Zhang Juzheng reinstated the practice of keeping the Veritable Records (Qiju Zhu), assigning the duty to the Hanlin historians on a rotating basis.

From that moment on—

Shen Nian, third-ranked Jinshi from the year Xinwei of the fifth Longqing reign, Bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, Compiler at the Hanlin Court, Zhang Juzheng’s most outstanding disciple, and lifelong nemesis of the Wanli Emperor,

—thus began his career as court chronicler.

⸻

That day, the young Wanli Emperor got drunk and missed an imperial lecture.

Shen Nian straightened his back and wrote:

“His Majesty, drunk, missed the imperial lecture. The Empress Dowager and the Grand Secretary rebuked him sternly, even speaking of dethronement.”

That month, a large number of eunuchs were appointed as mining and tax commissioners, extorting wealth from the people.

Shen Nian raised his chin and wrote:

“Before the throne, I declared: ‘The disasters of monopolies and mining taxes are entirely the Emperor’s fault.’”

That year, the Wanli Emperor neither performed the suburban sacrifices, nor paid respects at ancestral temples. He refused audiences, ignored memorials, and ceased court lectures.

Shen Nian and his fellow historians cried aloud:

“Better to die speaking than live in silence. The greatest honor of a court historian is to be killed by the Emperor.”

⸻

Shen Nian said:

“I must be ill. I can’t sleep at all.

I have contracted Zhang Juzheng’s illness—the burden of holding up a collapsing sky—

but I was not destined for Zhang Juzheng’s fate.

In a daze, I saw the Grand Secretariat reduced to two people:

one drafting memorials—that was me;

one issuing imperial replies—that was also me.”

The down-and-out young man Chen Tianyu was scolded by his boss at work. Dragging his exhausted body back to his small rented apartment, he thought about the dinner his girlfriend He Xiaoli had prepared for him, and it was as if all the day's unpleasantness hadn't happened. But what he didn't expect was that when he got home, not only was there no dinner, but his girlfriend greeted him with a cold, indifferent expression. Watching her lift her suitcase, he looked at her helplessly. Even though he had a bad feeling in his heart, he still didn't want to accept the outcome.

“Tianyu, let's break up. From now on, you go your way, and I’ll go mine. Let's part ways here.”

Chen Tianyu watched as his girlfriend left him, moving farther and farther away…

Professional "actor" Jiang Qiao is forced to make a comeback in the industry.

But from the moment he signs with his new boss, his life descends into chaos...

He Hongyue: "How long would it take to make a woman, troubled by love, fall for you?"

Jiang Qiao: "Three days! Just three days!"

Wen Huaixiang: "Then control yourself, and don’t get too deep into the role."

Jiang Qiao: "Don’t worry, I’m very professional."

Ye Qingqing: "Tell me! Did you...do that while looking at my photo...?"

Jiang Qiao: "That thing? What thing?"

Qing Ning: "It’s not like you’re begging me to coax you every day...like before..."

Jiang Qiao: "Stop! Just stop right there!"

Tang Guo: "Relax! When I’m holding a scalpel, my hand..."

Time travel is not about being timid, it is about being reckless.

As soon as Chen Yan opened his eyes, he found himself in the Heavenly Prison Death Prison, where he was reported by his own father and brother.

When his life was hanging by a thread, he turned around and defected to the powerful official without any hesitation, becoming his most loyal lackey!

The first task that the powerful official demanded of him as a token of his loyalty was to kill his second uncle, a close relative and beloved friend...

And this is exactly what Chen Yan wants!

What’s the first thing you should do after you have a backer?

Of course, it's revenge.

Settle accounts with all those who have bullied, humiliated, and trampled upon you!

No one knows better than Chen Yan how to deal with a father and two brothers!

It would be great if the powerful minister wanted to kill the deposed emperor of the previous dynasty and eliminate the dynasty’s future troubles forever!

I have nine ways to slay a dragon! Nine ways!

Do you know the value of professional matching?

Moreover, the powerful officials only want results and will provide unlimited guarantees.

Chen Yan met the mentor who understood him best in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

As for whether the reputation is bad?

When I achieve success and fame, there will be great scholars who will debate with me!

Under the protection of powerful officials, Chen Yan unlocked a series of achievements including Fenglangjuxu, Going South to Capture the Dragon, Carving a Stone at Yanran, and Drinking Horses from the Vast Sea.

Until he was granted the imperial seal, the imperial edict to hold the imperial seal, the title of Shangshushi, the title of Grand Secretary, the title of Commander-in-Chief of all military forces at home and abroad, the title of Prime Minister, the title of Chief Minister of all the ministers, the title of not naming when praising or bowing, the title of not rushing when entering the court, the title of wearing a sword and sandals when entering the palace, the title of Nine Gifts, and his position above all other kings and princes...

Only one step away from that position!

This is not a romance novel! No CP, pure evil woman

No rebirth, no time travel, pure villain heroine plots to conquer the world. The heroine is really crazy, cruel and black-hearted.

The unruly and domineering young princess of the Zhenbei Palace fell in love with Pei Jinnian, the legitimate son of the Hedong Pei family, and almost drowned Miss Cui, who was engaged to him.

The emperor expelled him from the capital and sent him to Baique Temple to practice hardship and atone for his sins.

Three years later, the victorious Prince of Zhenbei exchanged his merits for Qin Jinzhi's return to the capital. Everyone was looking forward to seeing Qin Jinzhi's miserable appearance, but Qin Jinzhi was still arrogant after returning to the capital. She knocked out the prince's teeth in the street on the day she returned to the city!

Relying on the favor of the emperor and empress, she falsely accused Pei Jinnian's father of poisoning her. In order to save her father, Pei Jinnian broke off the engagement and asked the emperor to grant the marriage.

But after everything was settled, Pei Jinnian discovered that this arrogant and domineering little princess did not like him.

There's something else going on with the marriage!

Anyone who stands in my way will bow down before my unparalleled power.

People in the quagmire are dreaming of climbing onto my golden branch!

Questions that arise from reading a book can only be answered by continuing to read the book.

Loser Li Hualong's online writing failed, but he drank his way out of Hong Kong on a seven-day trip. After seven days of fun in Hong Kong, when his plane broke down while leaving, Li Hualong silently prayed to God to help him travel through time or be reborn. As Li Hualong wished, the plane disintegrated, and he died, but his soul traveled through time and space to Hong Kong in 1949 and merged with the soul of a man with the same name. Thus began the story of Li Hualong's legendary life... Because of him, Hong Kong became the world's most influential financial center; because of him, Hong Kong became an entertainment capital that rivals Hollywood; because of him, Hong Kong [Lan Shanzhong]

A science enthusiast accidentally traveled to a feudal dynasty without firearms.

He started to build up his fortune by being a small bandit leader.

Are stealing treasures, recruiting refugees, and fighting other strongholds the best ways to increase strength?

No, no, no, wouldn't it be laughable if a time traveler had such limited ambitions?

I've heard a long time ago how good it is to be an emperor. Of course I want to flirt with beautiful women, polish weapons, and become a little emperor too!

Throughout history, there are countless founding emperors who started from a low point. Why can't I be one of them?

The bandits start, and the advantage is mine!
