[Alternate history + play the pig to eat the tiger + scheming + female-oriented world + contrast humor]
One moment, Su Jingchuan was slacking off at his desk and scrolling through a female-oriented fiction rant thread. The next, he had become a victorious general!
The original owner commanded a million elite soldiers and had conquered half of Great Chu, only to be condemned by the empress, misled by treacherous officials into believing he had become too powerful, and sent off with a cup of poison.
As soon as he opened his eyes, the eunuch who had brought the poison crept in through the curtain. Seeing that he wasn't quite dead, the man actually picked up the half-empty cup and tried to force him to drink more.
His mind went blank. He nearly dropped to his knees and apologized out of reflex, but then it hit him: I've got a million elite soldiers, and twelve fearless generals at my back. Why the hell should I kneel?!
He grabbed the eunuch by the collar, slapped him three times, and sneered, “Go tell that lovesick empress to wash her neck clean. I'm going to tear down the whole damn sky of Great Chu with my own hands!”
The corrupt officials burned my grain? I'll just help myself to everything for free!
The barbarians want to take advantage of the situation? I'll blast the barbarian king's head off!
The lovesick empress is protecting a traitor? I'll march into court with my blade drawn!
The world is about to change!
This isn't about purging the court of corrupt officials. I'm the one who's going to rewrite the rules!
