Rising to Power, Beginning with the Apocalypse

A homebody wakes up one day in the body of the Tianqi Emperor, who died just two days ago, with a phone in hand. This is a wonderful age, but also one beset by troubles at home and abroad. The good news is that he can lead the Ming Dynasty into a revival. The bad news is that first he has to figure out how to raise money and stay alive, while dealing with officials and gentry who are waiting for him, as well as fending off foreign enemies. Even more surprisingly, his younger brother Chongzhen has just ascended the throne.
