Chen Yan, a modern-day medical prodigy, suddenly wakes up in the Tang Dynasty during Emperor Taizong’s reign—reborn as the son of a decorated founding hero.
His new identity? Absolutely legendary.
Two uncles died gloriously on the battlefield for Li Shimin, and his own father gave his life protecting Empress Zhangsun during the infamous Xuanwu Gate Coup.
In honor of his family’s unwavering loyalty, the freshly crowned emperor didn’t hesitate—Chen Yan was gifted the noble title of County Earl.
With a golden title and a powerful background, Chen Yan planned to take it easy: sip fine wine, stroll through Chang’an’s flower houses, and live the carefree life of a rich playboy.
But fate had other plans.
An imperial marriage decree suddenly dropped from the sky—and smashed his dreams to pieces.
The emperor wanted to marry him to none other than Princess Gao Yang!
Chen Yan, determined not to be remembered as history’s most famous cuckold, stormed into the palace to call the whole thing off.
Too bad Princess Gao Yang had the same idea—
She got there first.
And she brought royal attitude with her, kicking open the gates of the Earl’s residence like she owned the place.
From the moment they met, it was war.
Fire met fire, sparks flew, insults rained down—they couldn’t stand each other, and neither backed down.
The scandal shook the capital.
And Emperor Taizong?
He just sat back with a smirk and said,
“Let’s see which of these two hedgehogs loses their spikes first.”
