[Late Ming Dynasty + Transmigration + Farming + Strategy + Childfree + War] Zhu Meirui worked overtime every day until she finally couldn’t take it anymore and quit her job, deciding she might as well go home and find someone to marry. But fate played a joke on her, sending her straight to the end of the Ming Dynasty, where she became the daughter of Empress Zhou and a princess of the late Ming. Money was tight, the country was beset by constant warfare and frequent natural disasters, and the imperial palace had begun promoting frugality again.
But if they carried on pinching pennies, they would be left with nothing but coarse grain and vegetables. What was the point of living like that?
And when she thought about how her cheap father, the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youjian, might eventually order her death, she could hardly believe it.
“I refuse to be a princess of a fallen kingdom! If I grow vegetables and develop technology, can’t I bring the Ming back from the brink? Why should I become a princess of a doomed kingdom?”
The blurb doesn’t do the story justice. Please read the novel.
