On the twenty-fifth day of the fourth month in the fifteenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Ying, gravely ill with a cold and on the verge of death, awakens the most powerful make-believe System...
Whenever someone else imagines something, it goes up for sale in the System Shop, where items can be purchased using their imagination points.
The more people imagining, the more imagination points he earns!
And so, the greatest riddle-teller in the history of the Great Ming takes the stage. With the help of everyone’s wild imaginings, Zhu Ying steadily builds a prosperous Ming empire surpassing even the Han and Tang dynasties...
“Host has displayed martial prowess. Others imagine that the Host possesses the potential of a tyrant king. The Xiang Yu template is now available!”
“Host has explained proper etiquette. Others imagine that the Host is like the Duke of Zhou. The Duke of Zhou template is now available!”
“Host claims he can cure Empress Ma. Others imagine that the Host possesses a Nine-Turn Golden Elixir. The Nine-Turn Golden Elixir is now available in the System Shop!”
Many years later, Zhu Ying waters his horses in the Mediterranean. Gazing at the Golden Horn, he sighs, “I just wanted to be a riddle-teller. How did I end up being enfeoffed at Langjuxu?”
