Pei Yu, a history graduate, went straight from graduation to unemployment. He was watching short videos to make a little money for living expenses when, to his surprise, he bonded with the Myriad Dynasties Shared Projection app!
Every video he watched was broadcast in real time to emperors and ministers across the dynasties.
When he casually remarked that “plain rice porridge is a poor man's meal,” the First Emperor immediately ordered better food for corvee laborers.
When he marveled at the efficiency of the “combine harvester,” Emperor Wu of Han's eyes turned red. “Build one for me! Whoever can do it will be made a marquis with ten thousand households!”
When Pei Yu complained that “the competition to become an ancient emperor's concubine is brutal,” Zhu Yuanzhang directly abolished the old rules.
When videos of white phosphorus bombs and nuclear bombs came to light, the emperors fell silent as one.
Just as Pei Yu was happily raking in a hundredfold payout in cash, thinking it was all just a beginner's bonus, a new title slowly appeared on the sky screen:
[The Top Ten Emperors Across the Dynasties]
Pei Yu was mortified. “If this gets broadcast, a bunch of emperors are really going to hunt me down!”
