[Transmigration + absurd comedy + political intrigue + cosmic horror]
Zhang San woke up one morning and found himself as Zhu Houzhao, the Zhengde Emperor of the Ming dynasty.
Others transmigrate to lie in the arms of beauties and rule the empire once they wake.
As for me, every move is watched by countless eyes, and I could be “ushered into the afterlife” at any moment! Court audiences are like listening to gibberish! The Empress Dowager’s intentions are impossible to read, and the powerful eunuch Liu Jin wants to make me his puppet!
Just when I finally managed to find my footing with modern thinking and a few sarcastic remarks, I discovered the inner palace was darker than I’d imagined!
The empress died mysteriously by suicide, and her belongings pointed to a shocking conspiracy. The chief eunuch I trusted turned around and became an enemy bent on silencing me. A loyal old minister was poisoned to death right before my eyes!
It wasn’t until I was lured beneath the imperial mausoleum… that I discovered the Ming dynasty had gone completely mad!
The ruins of a discarded workshop concealed the remains of a mechanical behemoth! Five thousand iron guards had been wiped out by bizarre shamanic sorcery! The royal family’s greatest secret turned out to be a living extraterrestrial, “Star Hub,” held captive!
Now, an ancient presence beneath the earth is roaring to tear everything apart.
All I can do is clutch half of a broken tiger tally, carry a notebook filled with madness, and struggle to survive in the collapsing imperial mausoleum.
The Ming dynasty I rule has been off the rails from the very beginning!
