Feilu's Best Historical Power Fantasy for 2019 and 2020
Zhao Xu transmigrated to the Northern Song dynasty, becoming the newly enthroned Emperor Zhezong of Song, Zhao Xu.
At the time, Empress Dowager Gao Tao controlled the government and ruled with an iron fist, treating Zhao Xu as a puppet of power and a figurehead in court.
Conservative officials such as Sima Guang, Lü Gongzhu, and Wen Yanbo did not regard Zhao Xu as the emperor at all, taking their orders from Empress Dowager Gao.
When the Xia people harassed the Song Empire's borders, these conservative ministers actually kept advocating "ceding territory to make peace," giving in at every turn.
Zhao Xu was furious. In court, he roared, "I am the emperor of this Song Empire! These lands belong to me. Anyone who dares suggest 'surrendering territory for peace' shall be executed!"
When thirty thousand Black Armored Troops descended upon Bianjing, Zhao Xu unleashed a night of bloodshed in the capital.
"How could I allow others to meddle in the power over my realm? Beneath heaven, I alone reign supreme. You are merely my subjects. How dare you act so outrageously?"

You pretend to be a housekeeper and still want to fight for power without bloodshed?
