An overworked modern man unexpectedly transmigrated into the body of Xiao Che, the famous puppet emperor of Great Qian. The Empress Dowager and Regent controlled the court, and he was constantly pushed around. Every meal was watery gruel, and even the palace maids and eunuchs dared to bully him with impunity. When he could take no more, Xiao Che finally struck back in public and activated the Emperor’s Comeback System, gaining extraordinary abilities such as the strength to lift a bronze cauldron, the Golden Bell Shield, and the Eye of Truth. He cowed Wang Zhen, the treacherous eunuch who had betrayed him, punished the arrogant palace maids, and provoked the Empress Dowager by sending her a bloody broken tooth along with filth at Cining Palace, setting off a full-blown palace conflict. Enraged, the Empress Dowager secretly ordered the commander of the Longwu Guards to assassinate the emperor in the dead of night. Seeing through the plot, Xiao Che stormed the military camp at night and won over Zhao Long, a deputy commander frustrated by his lack of prospects, then secretly set a counterattack in motion. The once-timid emperor now revealed his full edge, seizing power step by step and crushing the factions around him. Thus began his grand comeback as emperor, taking control of the realm and restoring imperial authority.
