In the nineteenth year of Yongle, a soul from six hundred years later woke up on the dragon couch in the Qianqing Palace.
He is a doctor of Ming history from Lanzhou University, but now he has become the emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di.
"Yongle Dadian" has just been completed. It has 11,095 volumes and 370 million words. It is the culmination of thousands of years of Chinese civilization. And those envoys from the West were kneeling outside the palace gate, willing to pay thousands of gold and spices just to see the fragments.
No one knows that six hundred years later, it was the transmission of this great classic to the West that gave the firewood that ignited Western civilization. From here they learned arithmetic, astronomy, mechanisms, and shipbuilding, and then built strong ships and cannons to blast open the gates of China.
At this moment, everything is still too late.
He blocked the outflow of knowledge, but ignited another revolution within the Ming Dynasty - locust control, mining, cannon building, and shipbuilding. The industrial fire quietly sprouted in the ancient East.
He wants Chinese civilization to grow into a truly towering tree in this era.
But will the wheel of history turn out as he wishes?
