Introduction to the work "The Waste Prince Counterattacks and Becomes the Emperor of Eternity"
Li Chen, the prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, was frail and not good at maneuvering since he was a child. He was ridiculed as a "waste prince" by his royal relatives and courtiers. His mother and concubine died young and he was helpless. He was struggling to survive in the deep palace. Not only was he excluded from the fight for the crown prince, but he was also repeatedly suppressed and framed by other princes.
In an accident, Li Chen activated the "Emperor System". The system not only helped him regulate his body and learn the skills to govern a country and strengthen the army, but also unlocked advanced technologies and obtained key resources. Since then, he has shed the label of "waste" and secretly accumulated strength: first, relying on the guidance of the system, he subdued the genius inventor Mo Yao, improved the steam engine, and developed cross-era equipment such as steam repeater ballistae; then he attracted loyal and brave talents such as Murong Xue and Aguda to form an elite navy and cavalry, quietly building his own power.
He took advantage of the pirates in the South Seas to plunder the caravans and led a new type of steam warship to go on an expedition. He suppressed the pirates with overwhelming force and seized the maritime rights in the South Seas. He also discovered rubber resources and laid the foundation for the Industrial Revolution of the Xia Dynasty. Internally, he reformed bad policies, reduced taxes, promoted new rice seeds, provided for the people's food and clothing, and gradually won the hearts and minds of the people and the support of the courtiers.
When the battle for the throne became intense, Li Chen used thunderous means to smash his opponent's conspiracy and successfully ascended the throne. After that, he established the Nanyang Protectorate, opened transnational trade routes, promoted Daxia's transformation from agricultural civilization to industrial civilization, and expanded its territory to the Nanyang Islands. The country became rich and the people were strong, and people from all over the world were surrendered. In the end, he transformed from the "waste prince" in the past to an emperor who will leave his name in history.
