Su Dao made a move, and the world is mine. Originally a skilled thief, who would have expected to travel back hundreds of years because of a single theft? For the sake of this worthless book, I have transported myself to a chaotic era. It would have been better to bring me a copy of "Dream of the Red Chamber," at least then I wouldn't have to worry about finding someone to spend the night with. Su Dao secretly cursed in his heart, "Shit, this is the Republic of China! Give me this useless book, it would be better to give me a copy of the martial arts legacy of Wu Mu, or a military strategy or martial arts manual would do." "What? The Japanese are coming? Send an army and wipe out their base, why panic?" "What? The Americans are coming? Just send the navy and they won't be able to leave their own doorstep. Let's focus on developing the people's livelihood first." "What? The British and French are causing trouble too? Damn it, sell some equipment to the little mustache and tell him that if he doesn't beat those two ruffians to the point where he doesn't recognize himself, the price of the equipment will increase tenfold." Carrying this almost moldy book, with illustrations of weapons and equipment from various countries, Su Dao arrives in this world and begins an exciting and passionate life. If any readers find "Rebirth of the Super Empire" enjoyable, please don't forget to recommend it to your friends in your QQ groups and microblogs!

Reincarnated into this body, I ascended the throne at the age of five, assumed full power at fifteen, and now at the age of twenty-five. During my reign, I learned glassmaking, soap making, developed cement, and bred rice. I taught the empress dowager to play mahjong for leisure, led my soldiers to barbecue in the frontier, established the royal bank, and repaired the main roads of each province. This led to a prosperous era of peace under the mighty Mount Yue! However, the good times did not last long, as the world became unpredictable. Massive floods in the southeast, severe droughts in the northwest, frequent earthquakes, and border troubles disrupted the peace that had lasted for a long time. Upon the earnest request of my courtiers who had enjoyed peace for so long, I issued a decree to admit my own faults and pray to the heavens sincerely. I chuckled, for this is a historical fiction, and you all seemed to have stumbled upon the wrong channel. Thus, I issued four imperial edicts and dispatched three envoys, and within just over two months, the court was no longer filled with complaints.

On an auspicious day atop Mount Tai, the young emperor, full of spirit and vigor, is ready to embark on this momentous occasion. Just then, a person, wielding a sword, emerged from the clouds, forever changing my perception of the world...
