The Overbearing Ming

During the Zhengde era of the Ming dynasty, the eunuch Liu Jin held power at court, Prince Anhua was plotting rebellion, and a Tatar prince was always ready to raid the south. Across the imperial court, eight or nine out of every ten officials cowered beneath Liu Jin's tyranny. Watch as Shi Yifeng, who transmigrates into the body of a dim-witted illegitimate son from a martial arts family, uses his ahead-of-his-time understanding of entertainment to win Emperor Zhengde's trust and take command of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. He takes on the celebrated orthodox sects below and the powerful officials of the Eastern Depot above, helps Zhengde execute Liu Jin, quell internal turmoil, and lead campaigns beyond the frontier. “What? Li Fengjie, Su San, the young lady of the Duke of Wei's family, and that domineering Mongolian princess? You're arranging marriages with all of them for me, Your Majesty? And granting them noble titles?” “What? You're bored, Your Majesty? Then shall we play mahjong or Three Kingdoms Kill? Or should I continue serializing The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants for you?”
