The Nine Princes Vie for the Throne, and I Back the Crown Prince Against the Qing

After suffering a cerebral hemorrhage, Zhao Lin opened his eyes to find himself in Yuhang City in the twenty-seventh year of the Kangxi reign.

He had hoped to make a fresh start and reach the pinnacle of his life, but soon realized something was wrong with this world.

Chen Jinnan of the Heaven and Earth Society faced off against imperial guards sent by the Qing court to crush them in a furious assault. Their battle sent sand and stones flying and shook the heavens.

The Dragon Sect, the Heaven and Earth Society, the Ming Cult, the Five Poisons Sect, the White Lotus Sect, and other great powers made for a dazzling world.

With no peerless talent and no system to guide him, Zhao Lin could only lie low and enjoy himself in Yuhang City.

Then one day, while traveling to the capital to sit the imperial examination, he crossed paths with the family of the former dynasty's Zhu San Taizi, who were living in hiding under assumed names.

Sensing trouble, Zhao Lin was about to make himself scarce when the unexpected happened:

“System has detected that the Host is a complete couch potato. To encourage the Host's resolve to overthrow the Qing, a mission is now being issued:”

“Mission: Save Wang Zhiming and his entire family from an unjust death.”

“Reward: One Minor Restoration Pill and three years' worth of internal energy.”

“Penalty: The Host's intelligence will be reduced to zero, turning him into an idiot on the spot.”

Uh, can I ask who wants to harm Wang Zhiming and his family?

“Kangxi.”

System, can we talk about something? I'm begging you to just disappear.
