After finally completing the achievement "A Benevolent Ruler in a Golden Age" for one unit, she unbound herself from the System and, with the mausoleum she received as a reward, transmigrated to the Qin Dynasty, where the master linked to her [SP-Rank Talent Card] lived. Zhan Yuanxi only wanted to find her master and then achieve her ultimate goal: living off her elder.
However, the System's deployment was far too careless. It only dropped her into Xianyang, the city where her master lived.
With Qin's conquest of the Six States and unification of the realm just around the corner, the streets and markets of Xianyang were charged with impending upheaval. Unable to find her master and completely penniless, Yuanxi had no choice but to take treasures from the mausoleum as an offering and ask the Meng clan to introduce her to the King of Qin [to find her master].
One moment she was being brought into Zhangtai Palace, terrified out of her wits; the next, the King of Qin was her master. Retirement secured?!!
Perhaps even Heaven couldn't stand to see her living so comfortably. One day, a sky screen appeared out of nowhere:
[If I can't be comfortable, neither can you: Emperor Zhanxi's Theory of Rebellion]
[Rule the realm with a brush, secure it with a sword: Emperor Zhanxi's Ten-Year Plan]
[Emperor Zhanxi's Ten-Year Plan: Achieve Great Unity by Unifying Writing, Civilization, and Culture]
[Emperor Zhanxi's Ten-Year Plan: A Thousand Jin per Mu, New Crops Arrive. Making "The state is founded on its people, and food is heaven to the people" a reality]
[Emperor Zhanxi's Ten-Year Plan: New Science and Technology, the Development of Weapons and Shipbuilding, and a Navy That Sweeps Across the Six Directions]
[Worry before the world's worries, rejoice after the world's joys: Emperor Zhanxi's philosophy of governance]
[The realm is unified, the seas are calm, and the rivers are clear. "Emperor of the Ages" is the most straightforward assessment history has given Emperor Zhanxi for a lifetime of accomplishments]
[The people voluntarily contributed money and labor, carving through mountains and reclaiming the sea to build an entire island as the foundation for history's most legendary imperial mausoleum: Yuanling]
Emperor Zhanxi? The Zhan state? Was that the next dynasty after Qin?
The remnants of the Six States stirred in the shadows.
The same circumstances, a philosophy of governance built on great unity? Could it be applied to the Qin of today?
The First Emperor fell into thought.
A thousand jin per mu? What kind of divine grain was that?
The Minister of Agriculture's eyes lit up.
"The state is founded on its people, and food is heaven to the people!"
The common people across the realm were astonished and envious.
There were also designs for new crossbows, swords, guns, and other weapons, along with practical blueprints for ship models and their components.
The Three Excellencies, Nine Ministers, and remnants of the Six States all erupted: Hurry and write it down!
Yuanxi had never imagined that even after she had "taken" the exam, she would have to go over it publicly and correct her mistakes. She felt she was on the verge of a humiliating public death.
Meanwhile, the First Emperor, an SSSR-Rank Talent and one of the imperial tutors who had cultivated such an "Emperor of the Ages," gritted his teeth and declared: "Good thing we're reviewing it. This child needs a firm hand!"
"I clearly had the chance to make other people serve me, but I didn't use it. I only came here to live off my elder. How did you end up living off me instead...?" After rising to become the Empress, Yuanxi looked back and remained utterly perplexed.
"I was going to let you off, but you came right to me yourself! You... were always meant to belong to me!" Hearing this, Ying Zheng went from a muffled chuckle to hearty laughter. It was the relieved laugh of someone whose long-laid plans had finally come true.
Please note before reading:
1. This is not accurate history, and some things have been changed. History buffs, please go easy on me.
2. Qin will keep getting better, especially after it has the Zhan state as a model. In this story, it will not fall after the second emperor.
Theme: The state is founded on its people, and food is heaven to the people. Win the people's hearts, and you win the realm!
In fact, I want to say, from an emperor to an empress, is it really adaptable?
The text is very nice. The extra is so scary...
"Qiuji will never forget his melancholy eyes👁👁"
I feel like the character of the empress is broken. She is an empress and has gone through so many storms. I feel like the character is broken.
"No matter who it is, at this moment..." This is a big bug for the author~ Not to mention the empress, the emperor was the first one to come, they were all kings before.
"Opening the imperial examination to women? Ridiculous!" This is a big bug for the author~ During the Qin Dynasty, people didn't even know what the imperial examination was.
I like [orange candy] so much. [Orange candy] so good. [Orange candy] so good.
When will the author update?
This timing is a bit strange, isn't it? The First Emperor helped the heroine, and how long has he been with her? How come he doesn't know the heroine's experience of becoming emperor later????
Is it because carbon is not used as fuel?
