Hu Hai Livestreams His Rise to Greatness: Father and Brother, Great Qin Still Stands

The Qin dynasty fell in its second generation.

After being forced to take his own life at Wangyi Palace, Hu Hai thought he had died. But then he realized he was still alive, in a bizarre and wondrous world where he could see countless people from later generations harshly condemning him.

[The Qin dynasty fell in its second generation. He was the greatest wastrel in history, the one who destroyed the great empire built by the First Emperor!]

[If only Fusu had ascended the throne! The position of Second Emperor should have been his all along. Hu Hai was nothing but a laughingstock, fooled by Zhao Gao's "pointing at a deer and calling it a horse"!]

[Hu Hai, Hu Hai, you destroyed the entire Qin dynasty! You were incompetent and foolish!]

As the accusations came one after another, Hu Hai began to cry.

He thought, They are right.

Before his father's death, he had been the prince his father doted on most. On his father's last tour, he was the only prince taken along.

His elder brother Fusu was gentle, like a bright, clear moon. If he hadn't been forced to take his own life, he would have inherited their father's great empire and carried the Qin dynasty through three generations, five generations... perhaps even ten thousand.

But Hu Hai was nothing more than a sinner whose actions had destroyed the Qin dynasty's legacy.

If he could start over and make things right, there were only three things he wanted to do:

First, cut off the head of the traitor Zhao Gao.

Second, return the throne to his elder brother Fusu, help him build the Qin empire, and protect it so it could endure for generations to come.

And lastly, he wanted to see his father one more time and say, "Father, your son Hai knows he was wrong..."

Then Hu Hai really was reborn, and he really did see his father, Ying Zheng. But the father he met wasn't the mighty emperor who would unite the six kingdoms. Instead, he was a two-year-old baby who had nearly been killed by the people of Zhao...

Reborn and determined to work hard, Hu Hai: ...Help! What am I supposed to do when my father has turned into a toddler!

These days, roleplaying historical figures is all the rage. Every day, people with usernames like "I Am Qin Shi Huang" and "I Am Prince Fusu" roam the internet.

But one day, a creator named "I Am Prince Hu Hai" became an online sensation. The title of his very first video was:

#Help!! I've been reborn as Hu Hai and want to work hard to save the Qin dynasty, but I came back at the wrong point in the timeline. My father is still a toddler QAQ!#
