“Your Majesty, you can't kick the Grand Secretary!”
“I already kicked him. Is he going to kick me back?”
“Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager poisoned the ginseng soup!”
“Mm, tastes good. Bring me another bowl.”
Chu Yi, an overworked internet company drone who died suddenly after being worked to the bone under the 996 schedule, transmigrates into the useless emperor of the Great Chu Dynasty, a ruler everyone despises.
With only seven days to live from the start, he faces ministers who have usurped control of the court, an Empress Dowager secretly poisoning him, three border cities already lost, and just 300,000 taels left in the treasury.
Luckily, the heavens give him a System: every time he shocks someone, he gains extra life and a blind box.
So he decides: If he's going to die either way, he might as well go wild until the very end.
He kicks a three-dynasty veteran minister flying, and the System rewards him with a pair of black stockings.
He publicly curses the Empress Dowager as an old hag, and the System rewards him with twelve cans of ice-cold cola.
He appoints the most corrupt man in the land, pulled straight from death row, as Minister of Revenue. In three days, they confiscate the estates of seventeen families, and the treasury swells to seventy times its former size.
The old Grand Secretary, who had spent his whole life clinging to rigid principles, falls to his knees, trembling and weeping:
“Could the righteous path I've followed all my life... really have been wrong?”
Chu Yi sits on the dragon throne, takes a sip of cola, and burps.
“I'm not a foolish ruler.”
“I just can't be bothered to explain it to you.”
A worker drone's guide to self-preservation: As long as I keep causing trouble until I'm dead, the King of Hell can't catch me.
The queen should be regarded as the heroine. She knows martial arts, goes to the battlefield to guard the city together, and can participate in politics afterwards. Qian Duoduo is exhausted. Qian Duoduo does everything. Regardless of whether he makes money or not, Qian Duoduo will definitely participate. Cheng Hu and the Queen were added later. Pure and refreshing novel, all of them are the tool of the male protagonist. The disadvantage is that there are too few characters, and the few supporting actors do everything. It feels like one person is filming multiple roles, or a company worker wears multiple hats.
Super nice 👍 A good book worth recommending 👍 Super cool, so cool 👍 👍 👍
It's a good read, a domineering, brave and strategic emperor. This book is really worth reading. The writing is brilliant. Thumbs up for the author!
Very crazy, but well organized, very cool 👍
It's pretty good-looking, and a bit humorous. The main line is clear and there are no messy sub-lines to mess it up. The second male lead, Qian Duoduo, is the most unique. He is imprisoned for corruption, but the time-traveling male protagonist bails him out of prison but makes the best use of everything and becomes his most loyal money chest.
Well written. The story is compact. Worth a look
The writing is very innovative and suitable for the general public to read!
So far I feel pretty good, but can the items released be better? [Awkward laugh][awkward laugh][awkward laugh]
Courageous, resourceful, no-nonsense, good-natured person
It's beautiful, every link is linked together, it's beautiful!
