Play the Ambitious Schemer, Rebel, and Ascend the Throne! Right Now!

The Tianqi Dynasty was an era Cheng Yue had never heard of. She had transmigrated there decades ago, and her family had gone from a feudal small-landlord household that favored sons over daughters to a family that had survived droughts, locust plagues, floods... and finally left her all alone.

At least she had a little money. If she spent carefully, she could still find a remote mountain forest and live off the land by herself.

"Ding-dong! Hello, Host. I'm Wild Roleplay System No. 001. Would you like to bind yourself to a System?"

Well, now she had money, and her golden finger had arrived.

"Bind! Bind! Bind!"

"Congratulations, Host! You have received the role of a rebel leader. Begin your path to rebellion!"

Great. Rebellion? The money she had would make a smaller splash in a rebellion than it would if she jumped into a lake right now!

"Unbind! Unbind! Unbind!"

"Once bound, it cannot be undone. Host, you drew an S-rank role card! While you are performing the role, you cannot die! You can also assign role-playing tasks to newcomers. If they succeed, you'll share the rewards!"

Right. She just had to build a team beneath her.

In a time of chaos, after Cheng Yue spent every day shouting at the sky, the earth, and the flowers and trees, "Are lords and generals born to be noble?" "A man should be like this!" and "The Blue Heaven is dead; the Yellow Heaven shall rise!", her roleplay progress reached 1%.

Now she could assign a role to the little beggar she'd picked up!

Wait, why was the role Strategist Jia Xu?

-

Jia Xu had been working for Cao Cao just fine when one day he opened his eyes and found himself facing an exquisitely beautiful... madwoman.

"Starting today, you're playing Jia Xu. Let's rebel together!"

He wanted to refuse, but somehow his mind began playing images of oversized weapons of war... land mines, hand grenades, mortars...

He could get those by playing "Jia Xu" well?!

All right, no need to say anything else.

"My lord, I am Jia Xu. When shall we rebel, and against whom?"

Jia Xu was eager to get started. Playing himself was just so...

So difficult!

"My lord, there's a group up ahead. Perhaps we should..." Take another route.

"We found a group of people on their own! As Jia Xu, you should offer three strategies: the best, the middle, and the worst. The best strategy is to get in front of them, set an ambush, and wipe them all out! The middle..."

No, this wasn't right.

Jia Xu was starting to have doubts.

"My lord, there's a well here. Perhaps we should..." Get a drink before we go.

"A wild well, with people nearby! As Jia Xu, you should come up with a scheme: find some poison and prepare an antidote, poison them, and then play the savior when everyone here falls ill!"

No, that definitely wasn't right, was it?

Are you sure this is Jia Xu?! What kind of Jia Xu is this?

Jia Xu questioned his life. Jia Xu played along. Jia Xu earned rewards. Jia Xu gradually mastered the essence of the role!

So he didn't need brilliant schemes. He just had to be vicious enough?

- Misleading Jia Xu from "Poison Strategist" to "Poison Strategist"

- Drawing Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, then forcing them to play "Since Yu was born, why was Liang born?"

- Drawing Confucius, but changing "Conquer people through virtue" into "Conquer people through virtue"

Cheng Yue kept drawing cards and playing roles until she led a professional team of rebellion specialists to the imperial city.

Then an imperial edict arrived, declaring her a princess who had been lost outside the palace!

All she had to do was wait for the emperor to pass away, and she could compete for the throne!

"Then let His Majesty pass away." Cheng Yue smiled at the messenger. "I'll be emperor right now."

"That is forbidden! Besides, after His Majesty passes away, you'll still have to compete against the Crown Prince, the First Prince, and the Fourth Prince..."

"Compete? Never heard of it."

Cheng Yue turned her head slightly. "Have you heard of it?"

The Xuanwu Gate Succession: Li Shimin said, "No."

The Jingnan Campaign, purging the emperor's evil ministers: Zhu Di said, "Never heard of it."

The Yellow Robe Incident: Zhao Kuangyin said, "Doesn't ring a bell."
