I got the idea for this novel after watching videos and seeing so many “mites”!!!!
Transmigrate into the orphan of an early Qing clothing-persecution case, escape execution from the start, and try to stay alive, only to be forced into revolution?!
A modern scholar of history and social sciences transmigrates with maxed-out knowledge, tears up the queue order, stands up to the Qing Eight Banners, builds a stronghold in the mountains, develops the land, trains soldiers, and spreads education. Before long, a miniature utopia has become the ruler of the realm?!
Her generals call for her to be made a prince and minister; scholars from the former dynasty beg her to ascend the throne; even enlightened members of the Qing imperial clan follow her around, praising her ideals. The whole world is basically forcing me to become emperor
Fine, I’ll put on the crown and burn the dragon robe!
In the name of the female emperor, I’ll found a new Huaxia, establish a constitution to limit imperial power, promote new learning and educate a new generation. I’ll even choose a successor from among the refugees, a true champion of new ideas. The whole point is to ascend the throne myself, then dig the grave of the imperial system with my own hands!
By day, I’m the diligent and enlightened Emperor Qiming. In private, I’m the mentor training the gravediggers. My ultimate goal in life: turn the dragon throne into a bench and make emperors into wage workers!
Rebuilding civilization amid the blood and fire of the early Qing, idealism taking on the shackles of feudalism. This is outrageous and addictive, exhilarating and thought-provoking!
P.S. Don’t ask. It’s the transmigrator’s ultimate compromise: use the shell of the old imperial power to house the core of a new era, and work every feudal relic into the ground!
