I, Son of a Warlord, Am Recruiting Online

Only when the two armies clashed, and Yuan Yi's own father shot him through the heart in front of both armies to steady his troops, did Yuan Yi realize he was living inside a book.

In the book, his father was a hero of a chaotic age who led an army with his extraordinary personal charisma, overthrew the former dynasty, and united the realm.

His younger brother took the throne and ushered in a golden age, becoming a wise ruler beloved by all. The father and son were praised by later generations, while Yuan Yi alone died in the campaign that won the empire for his father.

Reborn, Yuan Yi returned to the time when his father was still just a commander ruling one territory. He looked at his younger brother, who would later be hailed as "a wise ruler for the ages" but was currently shorter than him.

Thinking of all the misery he'd endured in his previous life, Yuan Yi, who was barely taller than a bean himself, decided to start his own enterprise! If it went well, he might even let his father retire as the emperor emeritus.

Little Yuan Yi came up with the following business plan:

1. Recruit talented people just like his father, and treat them with respect.

2. Get along with his younger brother, so he could at least save his own life if anything unexpected happened.

3. Train in martial arts, so he could save himself even if he ended up a hostage again.

But where could he find talented people? Yuan Yi set his sights on the sons of the talented people in his cold-hearted father's network.

His father recruited a deputy general. The next day, Yuan Yi ran to the man's home and won over the deputy general's only son with a string of "Big brother, you're so good at martial arts!" The boy blushed and secretly vowed to protect his little brother from then on.

His father recruited a strategist. Yuan Yi brought a special prescription to the room of the strategist's frail, gravely ill son and promised, "Big brother, I'll find better medicine someday. I'll definitely cure you." The strategist's son, who had suffered from illness for so long, burst into tears.

And so, every time his father recruited a talented man, Yuan Yi gained a future ally. His younger brother even became a full-fledged older-brother obsessive.

As for Yuan Yi, the "new generation of wise ruler," who would inherit the dynasty from his father in the future and have a newly crowned top scholar, the youngest general, and the most easygoing brother-obsessed prince among his subordinates, he had this to say: It's better when you win them over yourself.

"Preview: The Younger Brothers of the Tragic Male Lead"

A three-year-old employee joined the quick transmigration bureau.

System 007 looked at the little Host, who couldn't be sent back because of a binding error, and could only explain the rules through gritted teeth.

"You'll become the male lead's younger brother. Our mission is to correct the world's storyline, return male leads who've strayed from their proper paths to their original places, and get the worlds running normally again..."

The System explained until its mouth went dry. Looking at the chubby little bundle, it asked uncertainly, "Host, do you remember what we're supposed to do?"

The little bundle, Lin Yu, tilted his head and thought for a long moment. "Um... cling to the male lead's coattails."

The next second, the System watched helplessly as its Host toddled off, patter-patter, to the young boy nearby, spread his arms around the young male lead's short little leg, and called out in a baby voice, "Gugu!"

World One: Raising a Child with a Cold-Hearted Crown Prince

On the day Xu Yu was born, his imperial grandmother dreamed of a divine carp carrying a golden scale into her arms.

The imperial astrologer read his fate: This child bears Heaven's mandate and can protect the dynasty for three hundred years of peace.

The emperor personally named him Jinyu, then decided it lacked enough royal grandeur and changed it to Xu Yu. He even built a "Golden Scale Terrace" in the palace to answer Heaven's mandate.

The true child of destiny in the Eastern Palace, the crown prince, initially paid little attention to this younger brother born to a favored consort.

That changed when he met a little bundle wrapped in silver fox fur in the imperial grandmother's palace. Three-year-old Xu Yu stood on tiptoe and tugged at his sleeve, softly calling him "Big Brother Crown Prince."

Later, everyone in the Forbidden City knew that although the little prince Xu Yu wasn't the heir, he had the right to live in the Eastern Palace.
