Overworked office drone Li Yi transmigrates to the Qin dynasty and nearly starves to death from the start. To survive, he has no choice but to put his old skills to work, telling jokes and making grand promises to Ying Zheng, the First Emperor through the ages!
“Your Majesty, immortality may be a fantasy, but I can make the Great Qin Empire truly last ten thousand years!”
“Just the remnants of the Six Kingdoms? I’ll hit them with economic sanctions in one hand and cultural influence in the other!”
“The Xiongnu are tough fighters? Horseshoes and composite bows will teach them a lesson!”
With his modern knowledge, he transforms the Great Qin Empire and becomes the man Ying Zheng trusts most. He thinks he can spend his days safely clinging to the First Emperor’s coattails, but then the upheaval at Shaqiu arrives after all!
Gazing upon a world in chaos, Li Yi is dumbfounded. The military engineers he trained have become warlords, and the administrative prodigies he taught want to go their own way. Well, it looks like he’ll have to clean up this mess himself.
Years later, at the founding ceremony of the new dynasty, Li Yi walks hand in hand with the empress, who looks just like his beloved wife from his previous life. Turning to Fu Bo, his white-haired old servant, he sighs: “I only wanted to be an imperial tutor. How did I end up becoming emperor myself?”
