A History Professor Became Emperor
A modern history professor transmigrates into Zachary, the timid puppet emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty, where he must outmaneuver the controlling Empress Dowager Wilhelmina and fend off the invading Great Jin. Leveraging his knowledge of modern technology, he introduces mechanized looms, steam engines, trains, and tanks, while using economic tactics like dumping low-priced goods and financial manipulation to dominate rival states. He ultimately defeats the Great Jin, crushes Wilhelmina's schemes, unifies all seven states under his rule, and cements an enduring imperial legacy.
