The Martial Emperor's Lackeys, Hounds of the Sacred Dynasty

After Emperor Wu of the Dayin Dynasty destroyed the Six Kingdoms and unified Tianque Lingzhou, he founded the Great Dayin Sacred Dynasty, earning glory for all eternity.

In the fifteenth year of the Sacred Dynasty, Emperor Wu comprehended the path to immortality and appointed the crown prince to govern in his stead.

But treacherous ministers rose in court, demons and monsters ran rampant beyond the borders, and remnants of the former dynasty plotted to stir up trouble and plunge the world into chaos.

By imperial order, the crown prince established the Embroidered Uniform Office to control the court and keep the realm under surveillance.

Jiang Ping unexpectedly transmigrates into the body of a newly appointed Embroidered Uniform Guard, only to be framed and forced to accept a deadly, difficult assignment.

He also gains a peculiar ability: he can see the greatest worry currently weighing on anyone's mind.

Bandit: "You can beat me to death, but I'll never talk!"

Jiang Ping: "That elderly mother of yours, alone in the countryside..."

The bandit bursts into tears. "I'll talk! I'll tell you everything!"

Upright Censor: "The Embroidered Uniform Office is domineering and controlling the court. It's the root of the nation's troubles and chaos!"

Jiang Ping: "Your son is infatuated with a brothel girl. I can help you..."

The upright censor beams. "I was terribly out of line before. Lord Jiang is truly a pillar of the nation!"

Enemy general: "Our army is invincible! Why don't you surrender at once?"

Jiang Ping: "Your achievements are so great they threaten your ruler. General, you'd better think carefully about what awaits you."

Enemy general: "I... am willing to surrender with my entire clan!"

By the time Emperor Wu leaves seclusion and resumes control of the Great Dayin court, he discovers that every official in the entire court is Jiang Ping's ally.

Emperor Wu falls silent. "Where is the crown prince? Where is my crown prince?"

The crown prince quietly steps out from behind Jiang Ping. "Father, I... I have already acknowledged Jiang Ping as my adoptive father!"
