"Xuande, come with me to seize Jingzhou! We can avoid twenty years of detours!"
Xiao Fang travels back in time to Jingzhou during the late Han Dynasty. By chance, he marries Zhuge Liang's elder sister and becomes the brother-in-law of the future Sleeping Dragon.
As a poor man from humble origins, Xiao Fang, after much deliberation, concluded that assisting Liu Bei was more cost-effective, as he could both be granted a high position and retire in peace.
Just as Liu Bei had just acquired Xuzhou, it was like a child holding gold, making it a target for powerful figures from all sides.
Are we just going to sit idly by and watch Liu Bei stumble and fail everywhere in the north, then waste his time doing nothing in Jingzhou, only to see the north fall to Cao Cao while we still have nothing?
Although he survived countless near-death experiences and established the Shu Han dynasty, he ultimately could not withstand the power of a single state and was forced to remain trapped in Yizhou, facing a slow and inevitable death.
Xiao Fang said he couldn't do it, so he decided to trick Liu Bei into taking Jingzhou ahead of schedule.
Yuan Shao: My family has held high office for four generations, yet I was destroyed by a country bumpkin who assisted a straw sandal weaver.
Cao Cao: Liu Bei's acquisition of Xiao Fang is truly a blessing from heaven. I admit I'm jealous!
In his later years, Zhuge Liang said: "I was able to serve as a minister for eighty years thanks to my brother-in-law's advice to know how to reduce my stress."
Liu Bei: Prime Minister, now that the world is at peace and the people are healthy, may I enjoy myself a little?
Xiao Fang slowly unfolded a world map.
Li Yan transmigrated to the present day, becoming Hephaestus, the lame blacksmith god of craftsmen in Greek mythology, unloved by his parents? His start was hellish, with his own mother about to throw him off Mount Olympus. Fortunately, the Codex Olympus was imprinted deep within his soul, not only recording the secrets and futures of all the gods and heroes, but also designing true divine artifacts for him! While the Olympian gods were busy vying for favors and playing power games, Hephaestus was ruling the volcanic kingdom, quietly illuminating his "technology tree." They have divine authority? I have the "Forge of Destiny." They rely on brute force? My "Conceptual Armaments" are ready to go live. They play the lyre? My "Electronic Music" is revolutionizing art. Zeus: "I need even stronger thunder." Hephaestus: "(Showing blueprints) Technology has advanced, Father. By the way, here's my price list." Poseidon: "How dare you challenge my authority?" Hephaestus: "(Pulling out a contract) Let's talk about the sponsorship fee for the 'celebration,' Uncle. I can make you lose all your dignity, and I can make you both famous and wealthy." This is the story of a rational modern craftsman who uses "logic" and "industrialization" to give this chaotic mythical land a hardcore "industrial upgrade," transforming from a "tool" in the eyes of the gods into a "rule-maker." (Please don't hoard books QAQ, I'll try to write something interesting in each chapter to ensure a good reading experience. The overall plot is pretty much conceived, so I promise it won't have a bad ending.)
He was a low-ranking Kuomintang agent, capable of spotting Japanese spies in a crowd. He was also a master of operations, infiltrating enemy-occupied territory to assassinate traitors silently. Because: "Scanning Eyes" were scanning...
Outsiders always thought that Ying Jiuque was weak and unable to take care of herself, and was plagued by bad luck, frequently stumbling upon crime scenes.
Until the emperor's birthday banquet, she effortlessly blew half of the assassin's skull off with a brick...
Ying Jiuque wiped the blood from his hands: [Would they believe me if I said I just did it on a whim?][Would they believe me if I could make salt, know where the gold mines are? Would they believe me if I could lead troops into battle?]
The old emperor, having heard her thoughts, said: "...This child is simple and honest, and she didn't ask for anything in return for saving my life. She should be rewarded!"
Afterwards, just as no one understood why the old emperor trusted Ying Jiuque so much, allowing her to rise rapidly from county princess to high rank, Ying Jiuque also couldn't understand why those people were so foolish.
Could it be that she possessed superhuman strength, compassion for the common people, and meticulous planning... all for the sake of a nominal title like Princess?
Princess of the county, princess of the prefecture, count, duke, general... and then the uncrowned king who commands the northern border!
What else, besides that supreme position, could bring her peace of mind next?
Can't a princess ascend the throne?
Power has always been the best supplement for women.

He faced widespread condemnation online, lost the first trial, and everyone was waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
In dire straits, the [God-Level Lawyer System] is activated! The [Eye of Evidence] is opened, and the truth has nowhere to hide!
"I asked you to help me win the case, so why did you send the plaintiff to jail?"
"I asked you to prove my innocence, so why did you get the opposing lawyer arrested as well?"
"No... Attorney Lu, you even dared to send a judge in?!"
In one court hearing, the plaintiff, the opposing lawyer, and the judge were all sent to prison by Lu Cheng, shocking the entire internet!
Faced with the three probing questions from the parties involved, Lu Cheng lightly tapped the table, his eyes sharp: "The law is a weapon to punish villains, not..."
Loya was incredibly frustrated. Ten years ago, he had just transmigrated and hadn't even declared his arrival. He casually rescued a little girl named Nico Robin who was being hunted. He thought his life would be spent hiding with this "devil's child." Unexpectedly, ten years later, when she found the first Poneglyph, he "awakened." "As long as I touch something that carries history, I can turn its contents into reality." When I touched the stone tablet recording the legendary Devil Fruits... —[Obtained Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Final Form (Unawakened)] When I touched the stone tablet in Alabasta recording the Ancient Weapon Pluton... —[Obtained "Pluton Blueprints"] From then on, things started to spiral out of control. The Four Emperors wanted to use us, the World Government wanted to destroy us, the Navy wanted to capture...
[A Poisonous Little Saintess + Delicate and Crybaby + Not a Saintly Mother + Silly Girl + Extremely Animal-Friendly + Beloved National Daughter + Mild Fantasy + A Little Bit of Bloodshed] The delicate and adorable little saintess Xu Zhinian opens her eyes to find herself transmigrated into the body of a soft and cuddly little baby abandoned on a deserted island. Huge monsters surround her, vying to be petted and pampered by the little saintess. But as rumors spread, poachers, mercenaries, and countless others want to explore this unknown forest. Until a "wilderness filming crew" arrived, no one realized they had stepped into anyone's territory... The explosive fruit, more powerful than dynamite, was just an appetizer; wildly mutated man-eating flowers swayed gracefully; giant lizards with chameleon-like forms lurked in the deep waters; schools of bloodthirsty piranhas and enormous crocodiles... Deep in the deserted island's forest, a colossal python coiled on the mountainside, and above its head, Xu Zhinian playfully swung her little feet, her eyes sparkling, "Brothers and sisters, come play with me~" The footage captured by the camera instantly went viral online, and netizens begged the production crew to bring back their long-lost "daughter"! Later, when the wealthy businessman and his family, who had been searching for their daughter for years, saw her on a variety show—a little girl riding tigers and lions, surrounded by wolves, holding a small black leather whip, and laughing heartily in the Amazon rainforest—the whole family was thrilled! [PS: This is a lighthearted story; there are no tropes like the real and fake heiresses clashing.]
When Lu Xinran woke up, she found herself transmigrated into a book and became the real heiress, a vicious cannon fodder who always tried to outdo the fake heiress.
The fake heiress was pampered and elegant, while she was vulgar and rude, a disgrace that the Minister's family was unwilling to mention.
While others were eager to see the Minister's mansion make a fool of itself, Lu Xinran, who had transmigrated into the book, was only interested in gossiping and arguing with everyone and everything.
Her birth mother thought she was vulgar, and she retorted angrily in her heart, "She was born of a mother but not raised by one, is that her fault?"
The servants were snobbish and looked down on her. She opened the gossip-eating system: ["Stealing things from the master's storeroom every day, how come they haven't been handed over to the authorities yet?"]
She was mocked for being impolite when she went out for a stroll, and she retaliated by commenting, "You know, your whole family knows. Your mother and grandfather gave birth to you, your father was cuckolded, and you still call him father, not brother. You're so polite!"
~~~
One day, everyone in the capital suddenly realized that as long as they stood with the second daughter of the Minister's mansion, they could have a juicy story to tell every day, and one different one every time!
As a result, Lu Xinran discovered that she had become inexplicably popular, and everyone liked to crowd around her whenever she went out.
Inside the mansion, her birth mother also hesitantly made new clothes and jewelry for her. The female lead and her mother became the closest of sisters, and the mother even wanted to give the male lead to her!
No need for that, she doesn't like big, fierce dogs, she prefers small, cute dogs!
The person who overheard her thoughts quietly changed their makeup the next day, stunning countless people in the court.
