[Transmigration + System + mind reading + everyone is a transmigrator + lighthearted political intrigue]
Xiao Che transmigrates into the emperor of the Great Jing dynasty and binds himself to the Transmigrator Survival System.
[Warning: In three years, the Host will be killed by a transmigrator.]
[Mission: Capture all transmigrators within three years to avert the crisis.]
[Rule: You must not kill any transmigrator. Violators will be erased immediately.]
Xiao Che: ?
Can’t kill them? That’s easy.
There are still over two hundred empty cells in the imperial prison. Perfect.
Wait, did he just hear the Minister of Revenue’s thoughts during court?
Minister of Revenue Pei Yuan panics.
[Holy crap, that Su Wen in Yong’an County is causing trouble again? Cement, glass, traffic lights: is he building infrastructure or plotting a rebellion?]
[Is that censor Lin Yan nuts? He begs for death every day. Is a trillion taels really worth that much?]
[Wait, how does the emperor know everything? Could he be one of us…? Impossible! I’ve scanned him with my radar eight hundred times!]
Xiao Che smiles as he listens to Pei Yuan’s inner complaints, silently writing down the transmigrators’ names in his little notebook.
The county magistrate obsessed with infrastructure, the censor begging to die, the minister who wants to retire…
No rush.
One at a time.
My imperial prison provides food and lodging, with plenty of beds.
