Stop Imagining Things! I Really Am a Fatuous Emperor!

Xiao Chen transmigrates to Great Qian and becomes a young puppet emperor who has just ascended the throne.

He thinks he’s landed in a living hell, but unexpectedly awakens the [Tyrant’s Ascension Record]. By committing the deeds of a foolish ruler and accumulating enough Foolishness Points, or by being overthrown by his subjects, he can take trillions in assets to the modern world and gain an immortal body!

Xiao Chen is overjoyed and immediately starts trying to get himself killed in every possible way!

The treasury is empty? “Promote that eunuch who sweeps the Cold Palace to chief eunuch of the Directorate of Ceremonial, then send him to collect taxes!”

The eunuch uses an iron fist to recover a fortune in unpaid taxes and even wipes out corrupt officials’ hideouts, filling the treasury to bursting!

The border is under attack? “Put my good-for-nothing younger imperial brother, who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun, in command of the army. Give him three random strategy pouches!”

His brother wins a crushing victory with strategies he made up on the spot, earns the title of Wolf Dweller at Mount Langju, and becomes famous throughout the land!

Building a lavish palace for pleasure? “Pick the worst saline-alkali land and dump ten million taels into it!”

The ministers are thrilled, imagining all sorts of things: “His Majesty is using labor to provide disaster relief and revitalize the trade routes. He is an economic genius for the ages!”

Watching the ministers kneel and cry, “Long live His Majesty’s wisdom!” and seeing his Foolishness Points plummet into the negatives while his Wise Ruler Points soar, Xiao Chen collapses on the dragon throne in utter despair.

“I really do want to be a foolish ruler! Why hasn’t Great Qian fallen yet?!”
