Reborn: Power Over the Imperial Court

I was a cunning, crafty con man in the modern world, but an accident sent me to ancient times. Given a second life, I swore to leave my former wicked ways behind and make a name for myself in this strange ancient world.

With my mysterious supernatural ability, I thrived in officialdom, cleverly resolving one crisis after another. But I was no ascetic. I frequented brothels and became entangled with beautiful women, leaving plenty of romantic debts behind me. Still, I had a sense of justice: whenever I saw someone in trouble, I drew my sword to help, leaving my mark on the path of chivalry.

In officialdom, my intelligence and cunning sent me soaring upward, taking me from a minor official to a powerful figure who held sway over the court. Along the way, I married several beautiful wives and enjoyed all the pleasures of a life shared with many women. As my power grew, so did my wealth. I amassed a fortune worth billions and became the envy of everyone.

But the road was far from smooth. Countless plots, schemes, and attacks came my way. Yet I believed that as long as I was smart and brave enough, nothing could stop me from moving forward.
