Introduction to the novel "The Record of the Ming Dynasty - Zhu Qizhen"
Shen Yan, a history college student who had just finished writing the thesis "History of the Ming Dynasty: Tumu Fort Incident", fainted in front of the ancient book shelf in the library. When he opened his eyes, it was already the campus of the 14th year of the Ming Dynasty - Zhu Qizhen, dressed in bright clothes and angry horse, was drawing his sword and swearing an oath. The disaster of Tumu Fort was close at hand.
He used the "civil service appraisal system" to promote official performance, allowing those who were sitting on the job to be dismissed like graduates. On the sea, he reproduced the "global route" blueprints, allowing Zheng He's treasure ships to carry movable type printing and high-yield crops, and open ports on the European and African coasts along the monsoon.
From the ice fields of the Onon River to the waves of the Cape of Good Hope, from the spice stacks of Malacca to the silver mines of the American continent, Shen Yan borrowed the hand of Zhu Qizhen to write the "Ming Dynasty Regret" in the paper as a footnote to territorial expansion: when the Spanish fleet saw the shadow of the sail embroidered with "Sun and Moon" lowering its flag, in addition to the map of all nations on the royal desk of the Forbidden City, the "Han territory" he wrote finally crossed the boundaries of the history books.
