The soul travels through Emperor Jiajing and sees how he regained his little life step by step.
In 1550 AD, the smoke of the "Gengxu Rebellion" burned the Forbidden City. The soul that woke up from modern times found that he had become the emperor who was the most proficient in power and the most addicted to monasticism in history - Jiajing.
Above the court, Yan Song's gang members are intertwined; outside the country's gate, Japanese captives from the north and south are plagued by gangrene. But this time, what is refined in the deep palace alchemy furnace will no longer be the illusion of immortality.
In the name of spiritual practice, we can implement changes. Internal funds became the experimental ground for modern accounting, and Huangzhuang quietly transformed into a technical workshop. He pushed the forbearing Xu Jie and the young Zhang Juzheng to the forefront to design a blueprint for the new law; he gave Hu Zongxian unprecedented authority to weave a large net of suppression along the southeastern coast. The "Royal New Army" trained by Qi Jiguang in Yiwu was equipped with epoch-making firearms; the fleet led by Yu Dayou carried the dream of sea control that transcended the times.
In the interstices of palace machinations, modern consciousness merged with the iron fist of empire. When the artillery of the new army roared on the coast of Kyushu, and when the Ming Dynasty treasure ships once again dominated the waves, a forcibly reversed Jiajing era suddenly arrived - it not only wanted to clear away the border troubles, but also pushed the empire's borders and ambitions to the deep blue distance that even the ancestors had never imagined.
However, the military and commercial behemoths unleashed by his own hands will eventually bite back the foundations of the empire. This is a crazy game that begins with self-rescue and ends with adventure. The emperor and his era are heading towards the abyss of fate between turning swords into plowshares and wielding swords to dominate.
