When Qin Shi Huang Is Reborn as Emperor Huizong of Song

Ying Zheng died suddenly at Shaqiu, regretting before his death that his methods had been too harsh and had kept his subjects under crushing pressure. He feared Fusu wouldn't be able to keep them in line.

When he opened his eyes again, he had become an emperor in the Song Dynasty, a thousand years later.

The dynasty was wealthy and prosperous, but its emperor was addicted to pleasure, corrupt ministers held power, scholars were valued over warriors, and the military had fallen into disrepair. Even a minor tribe from the Qin era now dared to cause trouble on his turf.

Ying Zheng: "???"

Too harsh? Had his methods been too soft, leaving later generations to forget what the iron-fisted Qin was like?

The next day, Cai Jing was dragged out and beheaded for entering the Chui Gong Hall with his right foot first.

The following year, the Jin invaded on a flimsy pretext and were sent fleeing by the Great Song's iron cavalry.

Five years later, Jin, Liao, Western Xia, Mongolia... all had been incorporated into Great Song territory. All nations came to pay tribute, reviving the glory of the days when he was hailed as the "Heavenly Khan."

Ying Zheng sat on the throne, his sharp gaze sweeping across the envoys in the hall. "Don't call me Heavenly Khan. Call me, Emperor!"

His virtue surpassed that of the Three Sovereigns, his achievements exceeded those of the Five Emperors. The one and only First Emperor.
