Great Ming: Rising to Power as a Tyrant

Eighteen-year-old Chen Mo transmigrates from the modern world to the Tianqi era, into the body of Prince Xin, Zhu Youjian, who has yet to ascend the throne. After a brief spell of helplessness and panic, he secretly builds up his strength. Once he becomes emperor, he sets about dismantling the rotten system, developing the Ming Dynasty's technology, and building an army of his own. Facing the Jianzhou Jurchens and Mongol Tatars, treacherous civil officials, incompetent nobles and generals, princely clans draining the nation of its wealth, and greedy merchants and gentry, he does not hesitate to swing his blade and cut them down one by one. Thus the Ming Dynasty is restored, and China stands forever at the pinnacle of the world.

P.S. This is not a summoning novel or an army-building novel. It is about an emperor's struggle for supremacy. The pacing will not be too fast, but it will not be slow either. Thanks for supporting the story if you enjoy it. If you don't, then I apologize.

This novel and its characters are entirely fictional. Any resemblance to real people or events is purely coincidental. Do not imitate.
