About This Novel
Qin Tian, CEO of a foreign trade company, died suddenly while working overtime. When he woke up, he became Emperor Chongzhen who had just ascended the throne for seven days. Open the ledger - there are only 800,000 taels left in the national treasury, Liaodong is owed wages for four months, and Shaanxi is suffering from a severe drought, with people eating people. Opening the history books - there are still ten months until the Ningyuan mutiny, two months before the Shaanxi rebellion, and thirteen months until Huang Taiji enters the fortress and marches to the gates of Beijing. What's even more frightening is that he remembers the ending of everyone in the history books-- Yuan Chonghuan was defeated, Lu Xiangsheng died in the battle of Julu, Sun Chuanting died in the battle of Tongguan, Cao Wenzhao was defeated and committed suicide, Qin Liangyu fought alone, Fang Zhenghua died in the battle at the city gate... And he himself will end everything on a crooked-neck tree seventeen years later. But this time, it's different. The first pot of gold starts with a house raid. The first dead man was the eunuch who was buried for him in history. The first bloodshed, kill for everyone to see. Huang Taiji is coming? Then let him never come back. Li Zicheng wants to rebel? Then let him become one of his own. Civil officials want to fight? Then let them fight, and I will just close the net. This is the story of a modern soul, in a crumbling empire, making startling steps and turning the corner. He wants this nation to stand up from now on.
