Tang’s Strongest County Magistrate: I Marry Princess Changle on Day One

Lighthearted slapstick comedy + multiple female leads + sharp-tongued trash talker + fatherly affection and filial piety + total reversal of the natural order + a Shura field.

Wei Wuxian transmigrates into the Tang dynasty and becomes the magistrate of Wugong County. Working with top aristocratic clans, he creates his own secluded paradise. He wanted to keep a low profile and stay in one corner, but after attending a wedding banquet, he unexpectedly hijacks the wedding night of Changsun Chong, the imperial son-in-law, and becomes the groom instead.

Even more absurdly, he turns out to be the illegitimate son of Wei Zheng, the Tang dynasty’s number one trash-talking official, who was lost outside the family.

Changsun Chong: Thief, give me back Chang’e!

Li Shimin: Find that kid who abducted Chang’e. I want to flay him alive!

Wei Wuxian: If I say I’m innocent, will you believe me?

Li Shimin: What do you think?

Changsun Wuji: Dare to steal my daughter-in-law? You’re dead!

The Five Great Clans and Seven Prominent Surnames: Whoever dares touch him is going against us!

Half a year later.

Li Shimin: Minister Wei, do you want a wife? As long as you say the word, I’ll send one to you right away!

Wei Wuxian: I’d rather not be a consort, even if dogs did it.

Li Lizhi: Husband, I’m sorry. I lied to you—I am Princess Chang’e.

The Five Great Clans and Seven Prominent Surnames: Don’t do anything rash! You can pick any noble lady you want!

Taishang Huang Li Yuan, who sneaks out of the palace, grabs Wei Wuxian’s hand in tears: Grandson-in-law, that rebellious son of mine has gone completely against the natural order. He locked me up and won’t even let me play with crickets! Sob...

Wei Wuxian: Easy! Hang him up and beat him once, and he’ll behave.

Li Shimin: ...

Wei Zheng: Son, add Uncle Yushu too, and the three of us father and son can surely trash-talk our way through the world without equal, leaving His Majesty unable to cope at both ends.

Wei Wuxian: Congratulations to His Majesty for founding the Xuanwu Gate succession system!

Li Shimin: ...
