Synopsis

Reborn three times, Kong Xuan became a living fossil from the founding days of the Ming Dynasty.

He thought he could enjoy his old age during the Hongwu era, but the System forced him to "extend the dynasty's reign." Failure meant his soul would be obliterated!

To set right the "Tumu Crisis," he faked his death, then boldly returned to court twenty years later, entering the Fengtian Hall as an "old friend of the founding emperor."

Facing a murderous Zhu Di, he said, "Your father never drew his sword when he saw me," forcing the Yongle Emperor to sheath it on the spot!

When civil officials tearfully remonstrated against the costly, labor-intensive relocation of the capital, he countered with "replacing corvee labor with commerce": abolishing hereditary artisan status, hiring workers, and holding bids, using commercial logic to drive the empire's construction projects.

With the treasury empty and the new capital impossible to build, he finally revealed his trump card: "Lift the maritime ban!"

He would use the profits of maritime supremacy to forge an unshakable foundation for generations to come!

He spent lavishly to attract talent, secretly established the Shenji Battalion, outmaneuvered the Jiangnan gentry, and cut down corrupt parasites...

Meanwhile, on the sky screen above the Hongwu era, Zhu Yuanzhang watched helplessly as his "dead" old friend surpassed Guan Zhong and Zhuge Liang on the historical rankings of chief ministers!

"Kong Xuan, are you a pillar of the state or a monster?!"

Looking for Historical Novels with a Well-Informed Sky Screen

I looked around on Tomato and found that lots of people watch short videos, get worked up about history, and then write novels. Many treat novels and TV dramas as actual history, and even marketing-account content gets taken as fact. Please, I want authors with a little more cultural knowledge. No more romanticizing our ancestors; portray the Yuan and Qing objectively.
