Governing by Legalism: Reform Begins in the Ming Dynasty!

In troubled times,

harsh laws must be enforced!

The Great Ming Dynasty has just been founded,

so harsher laws are all the more necessary!

This is the ironclad rule Ji Menghan lives by!

The weaker the court's authority becomes,

the more people are tempted to take desperate risks!

Only by restoring the law's authority

and commanding the respect of all under Heaven

can the court function in an orderly manner!

The battered city of Yangzhou

is being rebuilt almost from scratch!

And it all begins with his first meeting with Zhu Biao!

Two brothers!

One, the emperor;

the other, his minister!

Gazing at the immense city before him, as if it had appeared out of thin air,

Zhu Biao could not help but exclaim in heartfelt admiration:

“Sir, you possess such extraordinary talent.

Why not enter the court and govern the country?

I, Biao, would appoint you Left Chancellor.

Please come out of retirement and serve!”
