The social animal king of the history department woke up and transformed into the fourth prince on the edge of the Ming Dynasty in the parallel world. At this time, the Longqing Dynasty seemed prosperous, but in fact it was troubled internally and externally: the emperor was obsessed with practicing Taoism and did not care about political affairs, the prince's city government deeply controlled the government, the civil servants formed cliques for personal gain, and the Tatars in the north were eyeing him. As the fourth prince, he was just a dandy and a transparent person in the eyes of everyone, and he could become a victim of the power struggle at any time.
With modern knowledge and historical prophet, Wang Chong refused to be the "good king" who could be manipulated by others. During the period of confinement, he secretly investigated the shady story of water transport, dared to go against Long Lin in the court to propose reforms, copied corrupt officials, fought against the prince, and increased military pay, and just relied on his "rebellion" to carve out a way out. He wooed the royal guards and appointed officials from poor families. From water transportation to salt and iron, from the court to the border army, he stirred up the situation step by step.
When everyone thought that this rebellious prince was just messing around, Wang Chong had already laid out the chess game. In this game between imperial power and people's hearts, he used the name of "the traitor" to save the country and vowed to find his own counterattack in this crumbling Ming Dynasty.
