"Chongzhen: I, Rebuild the Ming Dynasty" tells the story of Li Mingyuan, a modern history student, who accidentally traveled through time and became Zhu Youjian in the 17th year of Chongzhen. At this time, the Dashun army was approaching the city, Wu Sangui was hiding his dissatisfaction, and the Hou Jin cavalry was eyeing him. The Ming Dynasty was like a candle in the wind.
Relying on his prediction of history, he started with the bloodshed at Xihua Gate, battled wits with Wang Dehua, the Supervisor of Ceremonies, dealt with Wu Sangui at Chongwen Gate, and united with the Portuguese artillery team to defend the Black Wind Pass. Wang Chengen's secret files, the fragments of Yuan Chonghuan's case, and the gunpowder magazine in Heifengkou, all the clues connect the shocking conspiracy of the late Ming Dynasty.
When the Queen of the Zhou Dynasty paid off her hairpin to pay her salary, Shang Ke happily accepted the order in the face of danger. The Donglin Party and the remnants of the Eunuch Party fought secretly in the court. He not only had to use Fo Lang machine guns to fight against Hou Jin's cavalry, but also relied on potatoes from Jingyang Palace to appease the hungry people. At a turning point in history, he tore up Wu Sangui's letter of surrender and rewrote Yuan Chonghuan's ending, making Chongzhen no longer the last monarch who hanged himself in Meishan, but an iron-blooded emperor who rebuilt the foundation of the Ming Dynasty in the flames of war.
Amidst the light of swords and shadows, it is a contest of power and loyalty; in the smoke of gunfire, watch how a grain of rice takes root in troubled times and holds up the hope of rebuilding the country.
