The Empress Slays Her Heroes, So I'll Take the Throne Myself

Betrayed after placing her on the throne, Li Jize was left to die under the scorching sun for three days—all because the Empress believed a dream. Reborn with memories intact, he realizes her paranoia was justified: this time, he'll actually rebel. Armed with modern knowledge, he forges muskets and cannons, rallies the desperate, and builds an army that will shake the empire. When his forces march on the capital, the Empress who once condemned him now begs, "Prince of Qin, please don't rebel!" But it's far too late for mercy.
