The Eldest Legitimate Grandson of the Zhou: Rewriting the Five Dynasties’ Hierarchy

Young Guo Yi transmigrates to the Five Dynasties period, becoming Guo Rong’s eldest son, Guo Zongyi, and foresees the desperate situation in which his entire family will be slaughtered six months later.

His attempts to insist on following along fail, but his childish words wake his father and lead him to build a secret chamber, allowing them to survive the bloody disaster by a hair’s breadth.

With careful persuasion, Chai Rong changes course and abandons his impatience, quietly rewriting the structure of the chaotic age.

But with a great ruler still alive, the situation at court changes dramatically, and the throne that once seemed within easy reach instantly becomes shrouded in uncertainty.

Faced with the road ahead, Guo Zongyi has never hesitated for even a moment.

He is determined to break free of fate’s shackles, personally end the century-long chaos of the Five Dynasties, lead troops north to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun, subdue Zhao Kuangyin the jiedushi inspector, and stop the Song dynasty, with its emphasis on civil officials over military power, from ever appearing again!

With his modern knowledge, he takes control of Later Zhou’s authority, flattens wars in all directions, and by his own strength restores the world to bright order.
