[Historical what-if] [Feudal prince builds his domain] [爽 System novel] [Firearms crush all opposition] [Decisive and ruthless]
Lu Wenchuan transmigrates as the least favored of the Great Qian Dynasty's nine princes. From the start, his biased father and the hypocritical crown prince scheme against him, sending him away to govern Youzhou, a remote, bitterly cold wasteland in the far north.
The entire court believes he is doomed to die. Even the Eastern Palace has prepared a coffin for his return.
Who could have known that Lu Wenchuan would awaken the Divine Overlord System!
On the eve of his departure from the capital, he pretends to be poor and dutiful, then turns around and empties the imperial treasury and the Eastern Palace's private vault. He also takes the opportunity to break a fallen God of War, a military engineering genius, and a mathematical prodigy out of the death row prison!
After taking control of Youzhou, he blows apart the city gates and purges corrupt officials. With blast furnaces, red-coat cannons, flintlock rifles, and snow-white refined salt, he transforms the barren frozen wasteland into an industrial and military empire!
Three years later, 300,000 Northern Mang cavalry attack the border passes, while rebellions break out across Jiangnan.
Only then does the old emperor finally remember this castoff son. He issues an imperial decree ordering the Prince of You to bring his guards to the capital, rescue the emperor, and take a blade for the crown prince.
Three days later, 100,000 heavily armed cavalry and 3,000 red-coat cannons surround the imperial city, leaving it no way out!
The old emperor trembles atop the city wall. "Ninth Son, I sent you away to govern your domain. Why have you brought an army of 100,000 to surround the palace?!"
Lu Wenchuan sits astride his warhorse and smiles faintly. "Father is growing old. Your son has come to the capital today to ask you to abdicate!"
