[Historical Transmigration] + [Political Intrigue and the Struggle for Power] + [Feel-Good Power Fantasy]
Li Shimin transmigrates into the body of Fusu, and from the start, the difficulty is hellish:
The emperor father has died, and Zhao Gao has forged an imperial decree., A death sentence is right before his eyes., Hu Hai is about to ascend the throne, and the Great Qin dynasty is on the verge of perishing after just two generations.
But he is not the original Fusu.
He is the Supreme General of Heavenly Strategies, the mastermind behind the Xuanwu Gate Incident, and the founder of the Reign of Zhenguan.
Li Shimin sneers. “A coup for the throne? I know that game.”
And so
First, refuse to take his own life and survive. Second, win over Meng Tian and seize control of the military. Third, fight his way back to Xianyang and reclaim the throne. Fourth, purge Zhao Gao’s faction and secure the court. Fifth, reform the corrupt government and usher in a golden age.
Years later, the history books record: Fusu, the Second Emperor of Qin, surpassed even the First Emperor in civil and military achievements, and was revered by later generations as “the greatest emperor of all time.”
Li Shimin: “Keep it low-key, keep it low-key. I just brought the Reign of Zhenguan forward by a few centuries.”
