Did the Qin Dynasty, which swept across the Six Kingdoms and established the first unified China under an emperor, really owe its success to Qin Shi Huang’s wise rule and military prowess? What if I told you it didn’t? Would you believe me? The truth is, it was all thanks to me. I, Zhao Deyi, taught Ying Zheng, held hostage in Zhao, to play a match-three game called Match Match Joy. The game helped poor young Ying Zheng go from having no ambition to striving for greatness, from frail to strong, from going hungry to feasting on delicacies, from penniless to fabulously wealthy, and from having no women to finding them wherever he went.
Zhao Deyi was an unfulfilled history student at some university. As graduation approached, he struggled to find a job he was interested in. With no other options, he became obsessed with a match-three mobile game set in the late Warring States period. It transmigrated him into the timeline of Qin’s conquest of the Six Kingdoms, where he became a servant to Ying Zheng, the future First Emperor, who was being held hostage in Zhao. Through the game, he helped Ying Zheng transform from a hostage nobody respected into a king of Qin versed in both civil and military affairs. But how could the empress who had become the game System let Zhao Deyi have an easy time? She was always setting traps for him, saying, “I’m so bored. I need someone to keep me company!” Even though the System Empress was as smoking hot as the empress from One Piece, Zhao Deyi wasn’t interested in flirting with her, because the only women he liked were Diao Chan and Dilraba Dilmurat.
With the competition between the Systems drawing ever closer, the System Empress was getting anxious. She wanted Zhao Deyi and Ying Zheng to join forces and help her compete, but will she get her way?
