This is the 41st millennium of the galactic human empire, and this is the story of that era;

Humans have forgotten the power of science and technology, and because they have forgotten too much, they will never be able to regain them.

On shattered reefs and desolate isles, the nobles and loyalists gather.

Drive out the Manchu invaders and restore China!

Let the Emperor of the Seas achieve his great legacy!

The double-headed eagle watched over his empire, gazing both at its former glory and the abyss of reality. In 1185, Constantinople fell to rebellion and betrayal, and the Komnen family's eagle standard fell sadly amidst blood and fire. In 1192, Tiberius on the banks of the Cura River welcomed two extraordinary guests. Alexius Komnen, a name born to bear the destiny of an empire, was forced to make his judgment before the end times. Would he follow in the footsteps of the old gods into destruction, or would he build a new order upon the ruins? His choice would determine the ultimate answer to Roman civilization. ——————Book Club: 809500903 (Welcome to join and discuss)

By 1204, the Byzantine Empire had crumbled, and its sole heirs, Nicaea, Epirus, and Trebizond, were still embroiled in infighting, completely forgetting their past grievances. In Constantinople, the Latin tyrant proclaimed himself emperor of the Romans, while in the north, the Bulgars were rampaging, greedily devouring the empire's legacy, and the Turks were also stirring, eager to gnaw at its flesh. Meanwhile, in the far east, a latent force, the Mongols, was quietly rising. The empire's collapse seemed utterly irreversible, but how would Justinian reverse the tide and raise the banner of revival once more?

Lazy and pleasure-loving, she decided to use her beauty to find a more powerful patron to cling to.

Finally, while wavering between two decent sugar daddies, he was shocked to discover that he had actually transmigrated into a book!

He's dressed up as a background character who appears in the side stories, the short-lived white moonlight of the female lead's white moonlight...

Daiyu: "When you were a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard being chased and killed, like a dog with its tail between its legs, why didn't you look for the problem within yourself?" Zheng Yang: "Then let me ask you, why didn't you look for the problem within yourself when you were unwell? Why didn't you look for the problem within yourself when your father was poisoned? Why didn't you look for the problem within yourself when you were forced to flee with me? Answer me..." Years later, Daiyu, on her throne, looked around and said, "He was a reckless man, a scoundrel, but he was my husband!" And all of this began in the fifth year of the Kangning era, when the Imperial Guards of the Northern Garrison came to Jinling to inspect the salt...
