The Great Son-in-Law at the End of the Ming: A New Face for Chongzhen, Ruling Through Conquest

[Ming dynasty + Chongzhen + transmigration + political intrigue + invincible protagonist + decisive and ruthless]

Transmigrated into the body of a useless son-in-law at the end of the Ming dynasty, he is thrown out of the house from the start, penniless. But watch me activate the [3D Printing System]: silver, firearms, prosthetics, even everything in this world can be printed for me.

With the System’s gifts, I heal beauties with my medical skills, use my poetic talent to face-slap the powerful, and make a name for myself throughout Jiangnan with a peerless song from the Qinhuai. Those who once hated and humiliated me now kneel and beg for my mercy. The beauties who once cast me aside like trash now plead for me to take them back.

The four great beauties of Jiangnan fall for me, the one-armed eldest princess gets a new lease on life thanks to me, and I can even recreate Emperor Chongzhen’s face down to the finest detail...

But my gaze has long since passed beyond this land of soft comforts and splendor. The Ming dynasty is on the brink of collapse, Chongzhen will hang himself, and the Qing armies will march south... The age of chaos is here. How can I stay out of it?

I head north alone, use the System to scan the emperor’s face, and make a perfect mask.

From then on, my double sits on the Dragon Throne, while I pull the strings from behind the scenes! I purge the court, put down the rebels, take control of the army, and hold off the northern barbarians...

Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, and Dorgon all want me dead? With a wave of my hand, I raise an army beyond this era, ready to crush anyone who dares defy me.

Just when everyone thinks I’ll lose myself in Jiangnan’s soft embraces, I gently tear off Chongzhen’s mask and put it on myself.

“This Dragon Throne is due for a new occupant.”

From son-in-law to regent, then ruler of all under heaven. This is an imperial campaign that uses technology to crush the chaos of the age, a battle fought on an entirely different level.
