The Night Emperor of Great Zhou

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, an empress rules, but the aristocracy holds the real power. Floods ravage the land, foreign tribes watch hungrily from beyond the borders, and the realm is beset by troubles within and without, teetering on the brink of disaster. Lin Xun transmigrates into this world and rises from humble beginnings. He dominates the court through the way of governance, pacifies the realm through the way of war, enlightens the people through the way of the heart, and ushers in a golden age through the way of literature. He is no Son of Heaven, yet he surpasses one.
