Father, If You Don't Come Back Soon, I'll Have Killed All the Ministers

This is the kind of power fantasy where, while you’re still thinking about heading out, I’m already in your house having my way with you!

I used to be a wage slave on Blue Star, bending over backward every day for a few measly coins. The fatigue was hard on my body, but the exhaustion was even worse for my mind. The only thing that gave me a little excitement was coming home each day and immersing myself in online novels. Otherwise, I’d pretty much given up and decided to lie flat. I thought I’d spend my life going nowhere, until one day my curiosity led me to stumble upon a murder scene. I thought I was doing the right thing by reporting it, but instead I walked straight into a trap and was framed as the killer. I thought my family could use the video I’d sent them to prove my innocence, but I had no idea how immense the power behind the scenes was. My family met with an accident and died in a car crash. Then, in the cycle of karma, just as I was about to be executed by firing squad, my soul crossed into another world. I was reborn as the crown prince of the Tianqi Dynasty, at a time when the prince was ruling in the emperor’s stead, corrupt officials held power, and the people lived in misery. I thought I’d be helpless without a golden finger, but as a modern person raised on online novels and a fan of power fantasies, I could still struggle my way through. A golden finger would only make things even better. In this other world, survival depends on combining intelligence with courage. Now that I’m here, how could I let anyone push me around? With power in my hands, what have I got to fear? I’ll scheme for power, shape the world, cultivate talent, plan business ventures, launch massive infrastructure projects, and build a strong, prosperous nation that draws tribute from every land...!
