Ding! Take a nobleman's daughter as a concubine: lifespan increased by one year! Reward: high-yield crop seeds, including sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn.

Ding! Take a Ming princess as a concubine: lifespan increased by ten years! Reward: steam engine technology...

Yan Xuan originally planned to keep himself alive by taking concubines, while developing the county on the side and living like a carefree little emperor.

But one day, Emperor Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang, showed up...

Wide cement roads, six-story apartment buildings, free schools, hospitals with skilled doctors, high-yield farms, convenient banks, strange bicycles, a county office with nine-to-five hours... Yan Xuan's astonishing remarks also left Old Zhu dumbfounded.

In the end, Old Zhu excitedly took Yan Xuan's hand. "Minister Yan, please become the Imperial Preceptor of our Great Ming!"
