Water Margin: The Beginning - Assassination Attempt on Emperor Huizong of Song and Robbery of Li Shishi Author: Panda in the Gobi Desert

Zhao Yuan transmigrated to the world of Water Margin and immediately received a system notification.

"If the host wants to activate the rebel system, he/she needs to complete one of the following two tasks."

"Mission One: Assassinate Emperor Huizong of Song, Zhao Ji. Regardless of success or failure, the system will be activated and you will obtain the Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Fiends Diagram."

"The Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends Chart: The host can bestow the title of Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends upon his followers. Those who obtain the title will receive the attribute bonus of the corresponding star lord."

"Mission Two: Successfully abduct Li Shishi from Bianliang (Kaifeng) will activate the system and grant the ability: Mastery of Martial Arts."

"Mastery of martial arts: Proficient in all eighteen martial arts, invincible in foot combat, mounted combat, and naval combat!"

Faced with two task options provided by the system,

Zhao Yuan had only one answer.

"Only children make choices; adults want it all!"

Travel through the Water Margin, acquire a rebel system, defeat the Song Dynasty, and restore the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties!

Chapter 1: Transmigrating into the World of Water Margin

In the second year of the Zhenghe reign of the Northern Song Dynasty,

He was now Prince Duan.

That is, the twelfth year since Emperor Huizong ascended the throne.

Although it was the cold winter month of December,

Within the city of Bianliang, Tokyo,

Yet, the shops still lined the streets, and the crowds were still immense.

Everywhere in the streets, there was a scene of prosperity.

Brothels and brothels were no exception.

But among all the brothels,

The most successful business was still Yuxianglou.

At this moment, in the main hall of Yuxianglou,

Many guests sat at the table,

But they were all listening intently to a young man on stage telling a story.

Even the maids, prostitutes, and numerous thugs who served the place listened with great interest.

The young man telling stories on stage was handsome and had a tall, straight figure.

Despite being surrounded by onlookers, she showed no stage fright whatsoever.

"What surprised Xiao Yan the most was that a transparent, aged figure was floating above the ring..."

The guests were listening with great interest,

But then a maid in red suddenly strode onto the stage.

He said something to the young man who was telling a story.

Immediately afterwards, the young man tapped the gavel on the table.

He left behind the words, "To be continued..."

He then hurriedly followed the maid off the stage.

"What happened? Why are you suddenly silent?"

"I'd like to hear how Xiao Yan plans to keep his three-year promise."

"What exactly happened? They usually talk for a full hour, but today it's only been a short while, how come it's all over?"

.......

Inside the lobby, numerous guests were making a noisy and disruptive noise.

The madam and her prostitutes quickly smiled and appeased them.

And the young people who caused all of this

But they had already followed the maid who had gone up on stage earlier.

We arrived at a small courtyard behind Yuxiang Tower.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the courtyard,

The maid immediately stopped and whispered a reminder.

"Brother, that guest is inside. Today is Miss Li's day for her hair-combing ceremony, so you must make sure that guest is happy to hear it."

"Don't worry, it's not like I'm new to telling stories to that person."

The young man chuckled, then reached out and put his arm around the maid's slender waist.

"After I finish telling that story, I'll come and play with you."

"Hmph, your junior sister is too busy to care about you today, so you finally remembered me?"

The maid in red rolled her eyes at the young man.

He then left with the words, "I'll be waiting for you in my room tonight."

Only then did he say goodbye and leave.

After she left,

The young man's originally lazy gaze,

But it gradually became more and more incisive.

"After preparing for more than half a year, everything depends on today!"

......

The young man's name was Zhao Yuan, but he was not a citizen of the Song Dynasty.

More than half a year ago,

He came from another world.

I initially thought it was the Song Dynasty in history.

Unexpectedly, a system notification suddenly appeared in front of him.

"To activate the Rebel System, the host needs to complete one of the following two tasks."

"Mission One: Assassinate Emperor Huizong of Song, Zhao Ji. Regardless of success or failure, the system will be activated and you will obtain the Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Fiends Diagram."

"The Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends Chart: The host can bestow the title of Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiends upon his followers. Those who obtain the title will receive the attribute bonus of the corresponding star lord."

"Mission Two: Successfully abduct Li Shishi from Bianliang (Kaifeng) will activate the system and grant the ability: Mastery of Martial Arts."

"Mastery of martial arts: proficient in all eighteen martial arts, invincible in foot combat, horse combat, and naval combat."

Upon seeing the four characters "天罡地煞",

Zhao Yuan immediately realized that

The world he came into may not be the true history.

It's the Song Dynasty from the Water Margin.

As for the two task options provided by the system...

For Zhao Yuan,

But neither of them was willing to give up.

The former, the Heavenly Fiends and Earthly Fiends Diagram, is clearly a good tool for gathering subordinates and enhancing strength.

The latter, with its mastery of martial arts...

Zhao Yuan, who also comes from modern society,

The necessities for living in this world

Not to mention Li Shishi, a renowned beauty throughout history...

Chapter Two: Zhao Ji Wants to Listen to Storytelling

In order to complete two tasks in one go

Receive all the rewards,

Zhao Yuan pawned all the things he wore when he transmigrated.

After being converted into silver coins,

He first bribed the officials to register his household in Bianliang.

Then it took quite a bit of effort.

Finally, they relied on talking about "online novels from past lives".

To be a storyteller

They successfully infiltrated the Jade Fragrance Pavilion where Li Shishi worked.

The reason for coming here is

Firstly, because Emperor Huizong of Song was the current emperor of the Song Dynasty.

They usually lived deep within the palace.

It is heavily protected.

It was simply impossible to assassinate him there.

The only chance to assassinate

That is, taking advantage of Emperor Huizong's lust for beautiful women,

They would strike when the person left the palace and went out for a stroll.

And Yuxianglou,

Since Li Shishi became famous throughout Bianliang,

This was a place that Emperor Huizong of Song often visited.

Zhao Yuan then chose this location as the assassination site.

Furthermore,

By infiltrating the Jade Fragrance Pavilion, one could also make contact with Li Shishi beforehand.

It will also be of great help in completing Task Two.

After working hard for more than half a year,

Today is the day Li Shishi is to be dressed and groomed for her wedding.

The so-called "getting married"

This refers to a courtesan's first time receiving a customer and staying overnight.

before that,

They only sing, they don't sell their bodies.
