Great Ming: With the Nation on the Brink of Collapse, I Tear It Down and Rebuild It

"Your Majesty, it's time for morning court," said Chen Hong, an eunuch of the Directorate of Ceremonial Service.

Zhu Youxiao woke up and discovered that he had transmigrated into Emperor Tianqi.

It was the Tianqi era, and the Ming dynasty was at a critical point, with its very survival at stake.

In Liaodong, beyond Shanhai Pass, Nurhaci's Jurchens watched like hungry tigers.

In the southwest, native chieftains rebelled every year.

The countries of Western Europe and lands overseas were beginning to rise.

Yet court factionalism remained rife.

There were only twenty-seven years left before the Manchus would breach the pass and invade.

After taking it all in, Zhu Youxiao drew a deep breath.

He realized that the entire country was rotten to the core and beyond saving.

The only way forward was to tear it all down and rebuild, establishing an entirely new Ming dynasty!

Zhu Youxiao said, "I won't be attending court today."

"Tell them to go back where they came from."

Zhu Youxiao activated the Space-Time River Fishing System, fishing one item after another across time from the future.

From then on, wherever the sun and moon shone was Ming territory!
