Historical Rankings: Videos from Heaven, Emperor Shi Beheads Zhao Gao

Su Dong transmigrates to a parallel world and binds himself to the Heavenly Video App. Videos he posts can be seen by every dynasty. The first episode, counting down history's Ten Great Treacherous Ministers, has barely gone live when all the dynasties erupt.

The First Emperor sees Zhao Gao forge the imperial edict, call a deer a horse, and drive Fusu to his death. He immediately orders Zhao Gao to be torn apart by five horses. Li Si is so terrified that he bangs his head against a pillar and begs for mercy, while a divine thunderbolt strikes Zhao Gao's mutilated corpse, burning it to a crisp. Li Longji, drunk, declares, "There are no treacherous ministers in my court." The next second, An Lushan is kneeling outside the hall, asking to see him. Seeing the Yangzhou Massacre and the Jiading Massacre, Zhu Yuanzhang flies into a rage and sends Xu Da with an army of 500,000 to wipe out everyone "wearing a queue." Li Shimin orders Cheng Yaojin to fight his way through the Northeast, while Emperor Wu of Han orders the extermination of the Xiongnu, sparing not one.

Zhao Gou is still congratulating himself that the Song dynasty has no treacherous ministers, while Qin Hui quietly breaks into a sweat. The video continues: the Ten Great Rebels, Ten Great Powerful Ministers, and Ten Great Eunuchs are next, with people in every dynasty growing restless. Sitting in his villa and watching the rewards pour in, Su Dong murmurs, "This is only the beginning. I haven't even edited the Ten Great Fools of History yet."
