After Everyone at Court Dreamed of the Same Person

This novel will go VIP on October 1, with a 10,000-word update that day. Stay tuned~ The new dynasty has just been founded. With the autumn imperial examinations over, Emperor Taizu of the Feng Dynasty has a dream. He dreams that tomorrow, as the new top scholar rides through the streets, a flying pumpkin will knock him unconscious! He'll be stuck in bed for three whole days! Having spent half his life at war and weathered every kind of storm, Emperor Taizu finds this unbelievable. It's just a dream. Surely it won't come true? And yet... it does. Later, he learns that he wasn't the only one. More than half the officials in court had the same dream. Then they dream that General Lu's son puts an arm around the top scholar's waist in the middle of the street and says, “So slim.” General Lu wakes up feeling terrible and, furious, rushes off to derail his son's schedule for the day and prevent any chance of him turning gay! Everyone else at court, meanwhile, runs off together to watch the drama unfold. But the scenes in their dreams grow increasingly surreal. They dream that: 【The realm is in turmoil, and the useless top scholar Xie Yuanbai becomes Grand Secretary, single-handedly saving the Feng Dynasty!】 【A silent, modest prince ascends the throne and turns out to be a foolish ruler. Grand Secretary Xie Yuanbai secretly assassinates him!】 【The son of General Lu, whom they once mocked, casts off his carefree facade and goes to guard the frontier with his army, only to die at the hands of his own people!】 【Xie Yuanbai returns to court, but this time he becomes Regent, overturns the entire court, and turns into a tyrant feared by all and condemned by all!】 Everyone is shocked, moved to tears, and indignant, unable to believe it. Only later do they learn that he was the one they couldn't forget, their unattainable ideal, their loyal minister and treacherous chancellor alike. In their dreams, Xie Yuanbai was a loyal servant of the state, leading troops across the battlefield and bringing peace to the realm. He was also once sunny, sincere, sweet, and funny, doing his utmost to raise the young emperor. Yet he was also the Regent who was enshrined with incense-scented flowers made from his skull; the one who poisoned the grasslands until thousands of miles lay deserted, acting like a madman with no regard for taboos; the one whose shocking deeds and bloodstained hands brought the Feng Dynasty to ruin and ushered in a new age. Xie Yuanbai, who thinks of himself as a rookie, finds it strange that the powerful people at court seem to look at him differently every day. When the System finally revives, he asks, “What's wrong with them? Why does everyone act like they know me so well?” System: “...I have some bad news. You might not remember this, but fragments of your memories from your first two missions may, possibly, very likely have appeared in these people's minds as dreams.” Xie Yuanbai: “So... my secret identity is exposed?!” No wonder they look at him so strangely, sometimes sad, sometimes angry, sometimes afraid. Plenty of people come over to befriend him, of course, and some even try to kill him with a knife. ●An epic historical fantasy, coming soon: 【Frost and snow, orchids and grass; one character holds a world of longing. Blood knocks at the shrine of heroes; the soul returns home.】 【The Yan banner flies south; when will the old wish be fulfilled? Three drinks in a lifetime: the first for life, the second for death.】 【Why did you betray me in two dreams? Only upon waking do I learn the subject never betrayed his sovereign. Xie, my friend... how should I treat you?】 【Brothers at daggers drawn, a childhood lie turning into a road to the ends of the earth.】 【All lies, yet believed without question; one true name, never taken to heart. Jinbao and Shiyu, help you rise to the clouds.】 【The crane returns to the lonely sky, a solitary shadow in flight; the immortal youth of yesteryear is nowhere to be seen.】 【Cold face, quiet words, misunderstood intentions; a gentleman's friendship is as clear as water.】 PS: 1. The author is terrible at writing synopses. In short, the protagonist failed his first two missions to save a dynasty (middle plot omitted), then starts the mission again. But the people in the dynasty dream about his experiences from those first two missions, blah blah blah (the ending and the middle are omitted too; there are lots of questions that can only be answered by reading the story, so I can't reveal more). 2. The protagonist has no romance. Rest assured. 3. The dreams make up more of the story than the present-day plot (because the dreams cover two entire lifetimes and therefore last longer and have more plot). Through the dreams, the dreamers learn that the protagonist transmigrated here. 4. To keep the comments section friendly, please don't argue. Just focus on the story itself. If you see anything upsetting, simply report it. Please don't conflate the contents of the book with the author. If you can't keep reading or don't like it, just leave and find something you do enjoy. You can't please everyone. Thank you all for your support!
