I, Chongzhen, Will Never Hang Myself from a Crooked-Neck Tree

Beacon fires blaze as the empire teeters on the brink of collapse. The land is lost, China falls into ruin, and the people suffer.

Wait, that's wrong. Let's try again.

Peace and prosperity reign, the nation's fortunes flourish, and China's magnificent power commands awe. The surrounding tribes pay tribute, and the people live in peace and prosperity.

This is the story of the Chongzhen Emperor, armed with an AK, saving his dynasty from the brink of destruction with love and truth, and building a harmonious new world.
