The social beast Yang Guang traveled through time and became the infamous Sui Yang Emperor in history.
Facing the coming chaos, he did not choose to repeat the mistakes of the past, but determined to use what he had learned to reshape China.
A wealthy family monopolizes power? He broke the old rules and promoted meritocracy, so that children from poor families could have a chance to succeed.
Are the Turkic cavalry watching? He then encouraged farmers to cultivate mulberry trees, organize the army and practice martial arts, and create an iron-blooded army that could protect the country and the people.
While others were still fighting for power and expanding territory, Yang Guang's eyes had already been set a thousand years in the future.
"Your Majesty, what you are doing... Does not conform to the ancestral system!" The old minister cried bitterly.
Yang Guang looked at the new city under construction in the distance and smiled slightly: "Ancestral system? What I want to establish is a thousand-year new system that will allow people all over the world to live and work in peace and contentment."
This is a story about using innovation as an edge to carve out a path to a powerful country on the ruins of the old era.
