Transmigrated as the Tyrant's Leading General

[Complete] Chu Xiu, a politics and military history enthusiast, transmigrated one day into the body of an illegitimate son born to a high-ranking official in the final dynasty. Chu Xiu knew his history. The emperor at the helm of this dynasty was deeply paranoid, cruel, and bloodthirsty. His nominal father would soon become a prisoner, going from a life of luxury to languishing behind bars. Chu Xiu would be dragged down with him, with his own life at stake. On his first day after transmigrating, Chu Xiu swore he would kill the emperor. Then the emperor suddenly paid a visit to the Chu residence. Chu Xiu gazed at the jade-skinned, deadly beauty and was utterly transfixed. "I hear Prince-Regent General once tried to have me assassinated?" Steam filled the palace hall. The beauty had just emerged from his bath. The emperor's most trusted favorite, Prince-Regent General Chu Xiu, stood at the foot of the steps. At the words, his face turned impassive, and he said nothing. The beauty came closer and seized the general by the chin. "Answer me." The general suddenly let out a laugh, swept him into his arms, and parted the layers of suggestive curtains. "Yesterday's ambition is not today's deed." 1.
