Gu Linzhao traveled through the Liang Dynasty and became the frail seventh prince. The imperial doctor declared that he would not survive until twenty-five, and no one in the court took him seriously. But he is a careerist at heart. The worse his health is, the stronger his desire to conquer the world.
On the day of the time travel, the [Emperor Development System] was activated, and it came with a full-fledged complaint function - the system not only issued tasks, but also complained in real time about his physical condition, decision-making style, and those stupid opponents. The harder the system complains, the more generous the rewards will be.
Above the court, the prince is domineering, the second prince is ruthless, and the officials and generals all have their own agendas. In the marketplace, the Liang Dynasty is undergoing a technological change - the mysterious genius inventor "Mr. Yuan" has successively developed steam engines, telegraphs, and muskets, and is using technology to change the world structure.
Gu Linzhao made plans while vomiting blood, using gunpowder to blow up the bandit's stronghold to establish his power, using glass and cement to make money, and using steam ironclads to sweep away the water bandits. Each of the craftsmen he recruited became industry leaders, and his 32 inventions completely changed the world. When the mysterious "Mr. Yuan" was finally unveiled, Gu Linzhao discovered that this genius inventor turned out to be his nemesis.
A sick man who is fighting for his life and an inventor who is using technology to change the world. Who is the real king of this era?
