[Ding! Your “State-Sustaining Cauldron” System is online!]
On my second transmigration, I became Shen Zhou, a centenarian grand secretary of the Ming dynasty. Bound to the fate of the nation, my mission was to “restore order to the world”!
From the start, I was thrown into the “Zuoshun Gate Massacre.” The emperor and his ministers were at odds, and the State-Sustaining Cauldron was sounding the alarm!
[Warning! National fortune -10! Current luck: 5 (critical)!]
[Warning! If your luck reaches zero, Host will be cast into the animal realm!]
Me: Panic? Not a chance.
With the Jiajing Emperor on the verge of exploding, I was carried into the great hall. One line, “Your Majesty, have you had enough?” left him completely stunned.
A few words later, I had resolved a deadly crisis and taught the emperor how to behave!
[Congratulations, Host, on resolving the “Zuoshun Gate Massacre” and averting a rupture between ruler and ministers. State-Sustaining Cauldron luck +20!]
[Congratulations, Host, on establishing the authority of an “Imperial Tutor.” National fortune +10!]
From then on, I appeared to be a dying veteran who had served seven reigns. In secret, though, I was the only mastermind holding the State-Sustaining Cauldron and keeping the Ming court alive!
Jiajing, go practice your Daoism all you want. I’ll govern in your stead! Not enough national fortune? Then we’ll open the seas, reform the laws, and wipe out the Tatars!
As long as my luck stays high enough, I’ll become the Celestial Emperor in my next life!
A veteran of the Seven Dynasties? If you are not respected by the emperor at the top and respected by all the officials at the bottom, you have lived in vain for so many years!
By actually rejuvenating one's youth
Living seven days in vain means all the previous work was in vain
Why is there so much description😵💫
