I transmigrated into the Chongzhen Emperor, only to discover that being emperor is just another day job.
Boss: Wei Zhongxian, who wants to sideline me
Coworkers: The Donglin faction, who write malicious reports every day
KPI: Keep the Ming dynasty from falling, difficulty level: hell
Pay: A one-way trip to the gallows at Coal Hill
How am I supposed to do this job? Anyone online? I need help, fast!
My plan: Turn my boss into a partner, transfer the troublemaking coworkers to the front lines, and rebuild the Ming Group with modern management.
“My history teacher told me that Chongzhen killing Wei Zhongxian was like tearing down the Great Wall myself.”
→ “So the first thing I did after ascending the throne was give the Ninth Thousand Years a raise.”
→ “The textbook says Li Zicheng was the leader of a peasant uprising.”
→ “I recruited him as a Ming general: ‘Go fight the Jurchen. Win, and I'll make you a marquis.’”
→ “The history books say the Ming fell because of the Little Ice Age.”
→ “I promoted potatoes and corn: ‘Let Heaven see what it means when people triumph over nature!’”
→ “A transmigrator's greatest golden finger is knowing where history went wrong.”
