Ten Years of Preparation, Building a Golden Age for Sui and Tang

After transmigrating to the Sui Dynasty, Yang Ye becomes its least-favored prince. Empress Xiao frames him and sends him to the Cold Palace, where he is forbidden from taking a single step outside!

In the Cold Palace, he has too little food and clothing, is constantly beaten and scolded, and has none of a prince's dignity!

Fortunately, he awakens a Card-Drawing System that lets him summon historical figures and decide where they go!

He summons Wei Zhongxian and sends him into the palace, improving life in the Cold Palace. From then on, Yang Ye has plenty to eat and wear!

He summons Yue Wumu and sends him to the border army, where he guards the frontier and takes command of 100,000 Sui troops!

He summons Shen Wansan to pursue business, building the world's largest bank from scratch!

From the Cold Palace, Yang Ye plots across the land and quietly awaits the collapse of the Sui Dynasty.

Then, in the eighteenth year of Daye, Yang Guang is trapped in Jiangdu, and Yuwen Huaji personally forces his way into the palace! With the fall of the Sui Dynasty imminent, Yang Guang finally comes to his senses and begs Yang Ye to ascend the throne and succeed him.
