Reborn in the Sui Dynasty: This Illegitimate Son Is a Master of Making Trouble

With no System and the realm newly unified, Li Xinghe begins sweeping reforms, but things soon take an increasingly absurd turn: he establishes a "Crosstalk Pavilion" to promote new policies, selects officials through an "Imperial Examination Variety Show," and holds a "Great Sui Games" to replace military-camp tournaments. In his later years, when conservatives strike back and his sons compete for the throne, he foils them with a series of "open schemes." At last, he "retires" during the Lantern Festival, passes the throne to the crown prince, and sets sail with his veteran ministers as the "Global Trading Fleet."
