Synopsis

The emperor's illegitimate son was doomed from the start.

With no maternal clan or powerful backer, even his fiancée wanted to break off their engagement. When Zhao Chengyan transmigrated into this world, he faced not wealth and glory, but a cup of poisoned wine.

He climbed out of the ruins, extorted the local wastrels, recruited refugees, improved salt and liquor production, and built bastioned forts.

In ten years, he went from Prince An, someone anyone could bully, to the emperor who unified the realm.

No System, no golden finger, only a heart unwilling to be a pawn.

I have never believed in fate.

If this realm insists that I die

then I will seize it by the throat first.
