Saintly Lord System: I Rule the Sui Dynasty

In the twelfth year of Daye, the realm was in turmoil. Emperor Yang Guang of Sui toured Jiangdu, while the imperial court fell further into decline. The protagonist transmigrates into the body of Yang Tan, the emperor's eldest grandson, deep within the palace. Rebellions are breaking out across the land, and warlords are carving up the realm. In this world, powerful clans are deeply entrenched, undercurrents swirl through both the martial world and the imperial court, the Turks threaten the borders, Goguryeo remains unconquered, and flames of war blaze along the Grand Canal.

Raised in the depths of the palace, Yang Tan has been reborn with modern memories and knows how history will unfold. He does not rush to seize power and claim the throne. Instead, he uses his position to navigate the emperor's schemes and the dangers of a chaotic age. On the battlefield, there are crack troops and countless fierce generals; in court, powerful clans vie for influence as commoners rise. Beyond the borders, Li Mi of Wagang and Li Yuan of Taiyuan eye the realm hungrily. In the name of the heir apparent, the protagonist acts to save the realm and restore order, whether by rescuing it from collapse or overturning the old game board altogether. This is a late-Sui world where history and political intrigue intertwine, aided by a System golden finger as he uses strategy and his understanding of human nature to break through every impasse. As the realm crumbles, a young man joins the game, making each move with heart-stopping care.
