The Xuanhe Chessboard: Ying Zheng as Emperor, Who Can Stand Against Him?

(Reborn emperor + iron-fisted rule + discerning talent + defying fate. Transmigrator warning: an emperor takes the lead throughout! No romance! No romance! No romance!!)

While the novel is updating, there are two new chapters every day, so enjoy with confidence~

Ying Zheng's soul transmigrates into Emperor Huizong of Song. He opens his eyes to face the Song dynasty's hopeless predicament:

Cai Jing abuses his power, Tong Guan brings ruin to the nation,

the Flower and Stone Convoy drains the people,

the imperial guards are utterly lax,

the Liao and Jin loom over the northern frontier,

and the Jingkang disaster is just around the corner!

Ridiculous!

I am the First Emperor, who swept across the Six Kingdoms and unified all under heaven.

How could I allow my realm to fall and Huaxia to suffer humiliation?

With no cheats or future knowledge, he relies solely on an emperor's discerning eye to distinguish the loyal from the treacherous:

He promotes Li Gang, entrusts Zong Ze with responsibility, elevates Yue Fei,

and puts Han Shizhong to use, reorganizing the army with an iron fist and strengthening the defenses.

Decisive in meting out punishment, yet steadfast in upholding the law, he crushes corrupt officials with an iron hand:

He abolishes the Flower and Stone Convoy, executes corrupt officials, and topples the Cai-Tong faction,

restoring peace to the people!

After hearing the reckless claims of a transmigrator

who knows the suffering of a century of national humiliation,

Ying Zheng resolves all the more firmly:

In this life,

I will protect the Song realm,

safeguard the people of Huaxia,

put an end to the Jingkang disaster,

and end a century of national humiliation!

Let loyal ministers and worthy generals all meet good ends,

let the Song stand strong, and let Huaxia enjoy lasting peace!
