Great Ming: Reborn as Chongzhen, I Keep Myself Alive with Lucky Draws

Zhu Ming, a history student who could barely pass his classes, wakes up as the Chongzhen Emperor, Zhu Youjian, facing a dying dynasty beset by natural disasters, human calamities, and flames of war. Just as all hope seems lost, the [Lifesaving Lottery System] activates. But something about this System seems a little off?

[Beginner’s Ten-Pull]

“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you’ve won one copy of Postpartum Care for Sows!”

“Ding! Congratulations, Host, you’ve won a case of ‘Fat Geek Happy Water’!”

“Ding! Better luck next time!”

“...System, the Ming Dynasty is about to fall, and you want me to deliver piglets?!”

After transmigrating as Zhu Youjian, he uses a lottery whose results work only some of the time to drag a crumbling dynasty back onto the right track.

“Pass the throne to the crown prince and set sail! Host, your journey is among the stars and oceans. What’s one little emperorship worth holding on to?”

And so, the least dutiful retired emperor in Ming history is born: “I’m done being emperor. I’m going to sea to become the Pirate King!” “They can industrialize back home while I go shopping abroad!”

When Zhu Youjian’s invincible fleet blankets the oceans, and “Chongzhen-style” steam engines roar in every corner of the world, he will make the whole world understand one thing: the sun will rise for the Ming Dynasty alone, forever!
