The protagonist Li Xian wakes up from a hangover and finds himself wearing a dragon robe with a group of eunuchs kneeling around him, led by the famous Wei Zhongxian. After the initial shock and panic, he realized that he had become Zhu Youxiao, the carpenter emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
In order not to be burned to death as a monster, he could only play the role of emperor cautiously. At the same time, he took advantage of the original owner's "obsessed with carpentry" characteristics and hid in the carpentry room to think of countermeasures.
Many years later, the Ming Dynasty did not perish, but turned into a strange "constitutional monarchy" country. Hou Jin was blocked from the customs, and the two sides entered into a long-term economic and cultural competition. Domestically, industry and commerce are extremely developed, and all kinds of novelty things emerge in endlessly.
The instigator, Li Xian, got his wish and became the "hands-off shopkeeper", handing over most of the government affairs to the cabinet. He himself took the queen with him to continue to indulge in his inventions and creations in the largest "Royal Academy of Sciences" in the Forbidden City, dedicated to developing the first "steam tractor" and "pixel game console" in the Ming Dynasty.
