Planned to Be a Tyrant, Ended Up a Legendary Emperor

share time: 2026-04-10 02:31:21

Modern office worker Lin Zhou accidentally travels back to ancient China and becomes Zhao Heng, the doomed crown prince of the Great Jing Dynasty. His only goal is to laze around and be a useless tyrant — drinking, indulging in pleasures, and appointing corrupt officials just to survive. But every clumsy attempt to ruin his reign accidentally benefits the people: trying to seize a merchant's daughter saves the family from local bullies, sacking a flood control expert leads to a permanent river management project, and even his greedy tax plans turn into welfare reforms. Now his tyrant persona is completely gone, and he's being hailed as a legendary sage emperor. Lin Zhou is totally stuck between his original plan and his unexpected fate.
