Is It Really a Mistake to Do Stand-Up Comedy in the Hongwu Era?
After transmigrating into the body of a destitute military household in the eighth year of Hongwu, Chen Mo discovers that his survival System has a serious problem:
Want to stay alive? First, make Zhu Yuanzhang laugh!
And so the most timid transmigrator in history begins a series of bizarre antics:
He writes memorials using PowerPoint logic, turns maps of the empire into jigsaw puzzles, and performs stand-up comedy in the imperial court.
The entire court thinks he’s lost his mind. Only Crown Prince Zhu Biao’s eyes light up. “This fellow may be a troublemaker, but he always seems to solve my problems.”
As the bloody Hu Weiyong case spreads across the capital, Chen Mo stares at a System notification and falls into deep thought:
[Task: Use a joke to delay a massacre]
[Failure penalty: Perform the Fengyang Flower Drum song before the court]
He grips the potato seeds he just exchanged for “Favor Points” and smiles bitterly at the System:
“You call this… saving the country with comedy?”
