A Catastrophic Start! The Foolish Emperor, Surrounded by Beauties, Is Hailed as a Holy Emperor

Beautiful women, harem, raising and training, emperor, strategy, alternate history

Zhao Haoran opens his eyes and finds he has possessed the body of a young, debauched emperor of Great Qian who drank himself to death.

At court, treacherous ministers scheme to seize power. Outside the palace, the vassal princes rule as kings in their own right. Neighboring nations invade year after year, the people are seething with resentment, and the national treasury is completely empty.

With everything falling apart from the start, the only way to survive is to keep up the act of being a foolish emperor while quietly building his strength.

As a foolish emperor, having a few more beloved consorts is perfectly reasonable, right? Opening a couple of clubs to make some money is perfectly reasonable, right? Cutting down a few treacherous servants is certainly reasonable too!

As a fine young man of the new era, he will put socialism with Great Qian characteristics into practice!

The treasury is empty? Then he’ll start a few small businesses, rob rich merchants who exploit the poor, and investigate corrupt officials!

Powerful ministers who dominate the court? Execute them!

Wicked consorts who wreak havoc in the harem? Reform them thoroughly and give them a fresh start!

Arrogant, overbearing vassal princes? Beat them into submission!

Grandmasters with formidable martial arts? Within ten meters, a gun is faster! Beyond ten meters, it’s both accurate and fast!

There must be club hostesses, but there must also be technological progress. The people must have faith, and the nation must have strength!

Only by encircling the cities from the countryside, reforming the education system, and boosting scientific productivity can he strengthen the nation, bring peace to the land, and unite the realm!
