When history professor Hu Lu woke up, he was already sitting on the dragon chair——
That year was the seventh year that Chongzhen ascended the throne.
That night, Wei Zhongxian was still in great power;
At that moment, the Ming Empire was only twenty-three years away from collapse.
He is not Zhu Youjian, he is a history expert from modern times. He has a [Historical Knowledge Core System] in his mind, which can call upon all the knowledge of human civilization.
Others only know that Chongzhen perished, but he knows how the Ming Dynasty perished.
So he laughed.
Now that you know the ending, rewrite it.
From eliminating eunuchs to reforming the imperial examinations, from improving gunpowder to building steam engines,
From restructuring finances to building a maritime fleet,
Step by step, he used technology and rationality to drag the dying Ming Dynasty back on track.
He made craftsmen become officials, made the people literate, made steam roar, and made artillery roar.
When Hou Jin's army moved south, his armored ships had swept across Liaodong;
When the Donglin Party is fighting for power, his AI think tank has made thousands of decisions.
Others only traveled across time to become kings and generals, while he traveled across time to keep the empire alive.
He said: "I am not Chongzhen, I am the new ancestor of the Ming Dynasty!"
And three hundred years later, when archaeologists discovered the gold seal on the seabed——
Five big characters are engraved on it:
"Science is the way, the bright light is immortal"
