When the soul of Li Mingyuan, an auditor who graduated from Modern University with a bachelor's degree, entered the body of the thirteen-year-old Xin Wang Zhu Youjian in the third year of Tianqi, the trajectory of history has quietly swerved.
With memories from the future, he knew the fate of the crooked neck tree in Meishan twenty-one years later. He also knew that the seemingly peaceful dynasty in front of him had been hollowed out by Wei Zhongxian's eunuchs, was eyeing the Hou Jin outside the customs, and was torn apart by famine and refugees everywhere.
Zhu Youjian, who didn't want to make the same mistake again, quietly made moves under Wei Zhongxian's eyes. In the name of adopting disaster children, he built a secret base in Xifeng Mountain on the outskirts of Beijing, and took those orphans struggling in the famine - the iron eggs who are good at forging, Lin Mo who is good at calculation, and the powerful stones... They are all under his command, and they are trained with concepts that transcend the times and become confidants.
From lurking in the abyss to wearing a dragon robe, he worked step by step: he used the power of civil servants to overthrow Wei Zhongxian, used thunderous means to rectify the eunuchs and imperial guards, and secretly supported poor men to infiltrate the officialdom; he used Sun Chengzong, Lu Xiangsheng and other good generals on the Liaodong battlefield to engage in a life-and-death game with Huang Taiji for decades; he fought against all opinions to reform the tax system and focus on commerce and agriculture.
When the defense battle of the capital shattered the myth of the invincibility of the Later Jin Dynasty, when the Liaodong defense line was impregnable, and when overseas immigrants planted Ming dragon flags all over Luzon and Java, this monarch who should have perished was single-handedly dragging the dying dynasty back to the track of resurgence.
This is a story about redemption, and it is also a wrestling match between a time traveler and the torrent of history. Let's see how Zhu Youjian used orphans as chess pieces and the country as a board. In the troubled chess game of the late Ming Dynasty, he found an iron-blooded road to rebuild the Ming Dynasty.
I like this work very much
Basically respect historical facts
