Forced to Resign, the Entire Court Followed Me Out

Han Qi transmigrates to an ancient fictional dynasty.

At a young age, he is already a senior minister of two reigns, the Great Sui’s Imperial Tutor and the current chief minister.

But just as the realm is newly unified and the empire’s foundations remain shaky, the former emperor dies and the crown prince takes the throne. The new emperor immediately plans to enfeoff all the imperial clan’s sons as princes.

Han Qi refuses, only to be impeached by eight princes. The young emperor is also furious and forces him to resign.

Resign?

After swallowing his grievances for far too long, Han Qi agrees without a second thought. He ignores the ministers’ pleas, takes off his official robes, and walks away.

Having left court, Han Qi hopes to live a carefree life, traveling among famous mountains and rivers. Instead, he is suddenly kidnapped and taken to the border.

Before he can even figure out what’s going on, someone puts a foreign queen in his arms as his wife, and the next day he somehow becomes the chief of a tribe?

The Great Sui emperor drives Han Qi away, hoping to pursue his ambitions and make his mark, but...

Month One: Your Majesty, disaster! The Minister of Revenue has taken your treasury and defected to Han Qi.

Month Two: Your Majesty, disaster! The Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard has taken your intelligence network and defected to Han Qi.

Month Three: Your Majesty, disaster! The Duke Who Guards the Nation has taken a hundred thousand Black Armored troops and defected to Han Qi.

In just a few short months, the emperor stares at his empty court, completely dumbfounded. Have all his ministers abandoned him and defected to Han Qi?

Then the Revolt of the Eight Princes breaks out, and now the emperor is truly panicking.
