Livestreaming the Empress's Retired Life to the Ancients

[Blurb] 2024.10.4

During the summer vacation of her junior year in college, Jiang Yin unexpectedly transmigrated to an alternate ancient dynasty and became an unloved consort of the reigning emperor.

If she didn't compete for his favor, she'd die. Jiang Yin didn't want to die, and she wasn't willing to live beneath anyone, either.

So she fought fiercely for power, seized the throne, and became the first empress in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, ushering in an age of lasting prosperity.

When she grew old and fell gravely ill, she issued an edict passing the throne to her eldest daughter, then closed her eyes and died in peace.

She thought her life had finally reached its end, but who knew her golden finger System would suddenly spring back to life and bring her some good news:

She could go home!

The empress's death plunged the entire Great Zhou Dynasty into mourning, while forces lurking in the shadows began to stir.

Just then, a sky screen appeared. From nobles of the imperial family to street vendors, everyone could see it.

On the sky screen, the twenty-year-old Empress Jiang Yin wore a short-sleeved shirt and hot pants, freely wandering down a bustling commercial street with her best friend.

She had no idea that every aspect of her daily life was being livestreamed with no blind spots.

Sleek steel behemoths speeding by, lavish skyscrapers, and a dazzling array of delicacies and fine clothes.

The many conveniences and modern amenities left the ancients yearning for more.

During Jiang Yin's first month back in the modern era, her eldest daughter came through. "Mother Empress, your daughter wants high-yield seeds!"

"Here you go."

During Jiang Yin's second month back in the modern era, her youngest daughter came through. "Mother Empress, your daughter wants blueprints for the Four Great Inventions!"

"Here you go."

During Jiang Yin's third month back in the modern era, her eldest daughter came through with the little princess. "Mother Empress, your granddaughter misses you."

The little girl wrapped her arms around Jiang Yin's leg and looked up at her with a sweet, soft voice. "Grandmother, Zhaozhao wants to go to school. I want nine years of compulsory education!"

Jiang Yin beamed. "Of course, of course."

Before long, Jiang Yin's home was gradually taken over by a crowd of little dumplings.

"I want to watch Pleasant Goat!"

"No way, you haven't finished your homework. Let me watch Peppa Pig first!"

"Waaah, you... you hit me! I'm telling Grandmother!"

Jiang Yin was at her wit's end. "Don't come any closer!"

Hadn't she retired already?
