After the Tyrant Is Reborn

The tyrant He Mingjue is reborn in the days when he is still a prince and has yet to seize power. He is also bound to a Sickly Beauty Self-Rescue System: every time he saves someone, his lifespan increases.

The white-haired young man, born sickly and guilty of countless evil deeds, sneers. "Do you know how much blood these hands of mine have soaked up?"

After reviewing the Host's life story overnight, the System breaks down. "Help, I bound myself to the wrong person!"

Even if it bound itself to the wrong person, the tasks still have to be completed. The System nervously assigns its Host a mission:

A palace maid in Consort Shu's residence has been framed and is about to be beaten to death. Host, go save her!

The young master of the general's family has fallen into the water. Host, go pull him out!

Consort Qi's cat is having a difficult birth. Host, go save the cat!

For the sake of the System's ability to ease his physical pain, He Mingjue grits his teeth and goes to save people and cats.

As the missions progress, the range of people He Mingjue saves grows ever wider, from the imperial palace to the common folk and then the battlefield. His reputation steadily improves, and after the people petition for him, he ascends the throne and becomes an emperor for the ages.

Even more absurdly, the man who wanted him dead in his previous life now kneels before the imperial throne, reverently kissing his fingertips with an infatuated gaze. "Your Majesty, could you look at me a little more?"

He Mingjue x Xie Wuhui

* "Guilty of countless evil deeds" refers to the previous life, when he did whatever it took to claim the throne. The shou isn't a good person, either.

* In their previous life, they were locked in a fight to the death. This time, the vicious dog has been tamed (referring to the gong).
