The Fierce Song Dynasty: Swallowing Ten Thousand Miles Like a Tiger

The Eighth Year of Tiansheng, Bianliang, the Eastern Capital. A college boxer transmigrates into the Northern Song dynasty and becomes the young Emperor Zhen, Zhao Zhen, whose power has been seized by Empress Dowager Liu E. The old case of “swapping the cat for the crown prince” still haunts him, while his birth mother is imprisoned at the imperial mausoleum, shut away from the light of day. In his previous life, he resented the three centuries of weakness under the Song dynasties and the humiliation they suffered at the hands of foreign invaders. In this life, he sits upon the imperial throne and refuses to be a puppet at anyone’s mercy. At court, eunuchs run rampant, civil officials paint a picture of peace and prosperity, and the powerful treat human lives as worthless. Beyond the western frontier, famed generals fall, Yuan Hao sharpens his blades and founds a state, and the smoke of war begins to rise across the desert. Then he will steady the realm with a single punch: Purge treacherous ministers, end rule from behind the curtain, destroy Western Xia, reclaim the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and sweep across ten thousand miles like a tiger! Fan Zhongyan, Bao Zheng, Di Qing, Ouyang Xiu, Han Qi, Fu Bi, the Three Su, Liu Yong, Wang Anshi… A galaxy of luminaries, all gathered under his command! A great ruler of his age, forging the Song into an iron-blooded force!
