Reborn before the Yellow Robe was placed on my shoulders, this time I refuse to seize power through a bloody coup.
My name is Zhao Kuangyin. In my previous life, I launched the Chenqiao Mutiny and surrendered military power over wine, yet was branded a usurper for a thousand years.
This time, I choose to do what everyone wants.
When the Khitan cavalry invades south, I lead the campaign myself and crush the enemy, until the young emperor weeps and begs me to ascend the throne.
When arrogant generals refuse to obey, a cup of wine is all it takes for them to willingly surrender their military authority.
With the realm still unsettled, I use my foresight to plan ahead and sweep across north and south.
From Palace Guard Inspector to founding emperor, this time my Song dynasty will know neither the “axe shadow by candlelight” nor the “Humiliation of Jingkang.” Instead, all nations will come to pay tribute!
Personally, I think the writing of this book is good and the pace is relaxed and moderate. It is worth reading.
It's pretty cool. I've never seen anything like this in 10 years.
