The Great Song: The Emperor Returns

Ji Yun has always lived by the creed of an eye for an eye and blood for blood. A geological surveyor by trade, he incurs his superior's displeasure and is sent to investigate a bottomless cavern. Suddenly, the rope is cut by someone, and he plunges into the depths. When he wakes, he finds himself in the reign of Emperor Renzong of Song. The emperor has only just taken personal control of the empire and hopes to appoint Fan Zhongyan and others to launch sweeping reforms, but the court officials oppose him. In the end, after barely a year, Fan Zhongyan is sent away from the capital, and all of Emperor Renzong's ambitions come to nothing.

To the emperor and his ministers, it is merely a power struggle born of conspiracy. But for ordinary people, it means enduring one hard day after another...

His original plan to help Emperor Renzong is abandoned in the face of the officials' indifference!

From then on, the Son of Heaven returns to power, extends his grace across the realm, and leads the people toward the happy lives they deserve.
