《Emperor System: I Just Want to Die, Not Rule the World》

share time: 2026-01-16 00:36:38

Lin Chuan, a modern corporate slave, died from overwork and woke up as the short-lived emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty—besieged by rebels just three days after ascending the throne! Worse still, he’s bound to the "Emperor System": only unifying the world allows him to reincarnate; otherwise, he’ll be trapped in the throne forever. But Lin Chuan’s only goal is to "die quickly and return to modern times to lie flat"! He tries every trick to "kill" himself: taking poison that turns out to be a fake death pill, saving plague victims instead; jumping into a river to drown, but fishing out a hermit war god; even trying to abdicate to a traitor, who gets struck by lightning by the system… To make it worse, Su Wantang, the prime minister’s daughter, always "spoils his plans"—she came to persuade him to rule, but secretly feeds him osmanthus candy when he pretends to be unconscious, saying, "You look cuter pretending to be dead than attending court." While outsmarting the system and being teased by the sweet girl, Lin Chuan suddenly finds being a wise emperor isn’t that hard? But the system issues a new task: "Marry Su Wantang as queen, or trigger the 'lifelong loneliness' punishment"?!
