In the third year of Hongwu's reign, Chen Fan, an unofficial history blogger, accidentally traveled through time and became a death row prisoner in Yingtian Mansion. He was about to be executed by the Queen of Autumn just because he spread rumors about Zhu Yuanzhang among the people. In a desperate situation, he risked his life to seek an audience with Emperor Hongwu with his head full of secrets about the emperor's unofficial history.
From stealing dog meat to the abbot of Huangjue Temple, to eating calves while grazing cattle to deceive the landowners, the hilarious and real teenage embarrassments actually made the decisive and murderous Zhu Yuanzhang laugh heartily. Not only was he spared the death penalty, but he was also named the "Compilation Envoy of the Unofficial History of the Ming Dynasty" and followed him around.
With his exclusive unofficial history, Chen Fan rose through the ranks, rising from a seventh-rank petty official to a first-rank unofficial king, and he was hereditary. He used unofficial history as a blade to expose the treacherous schemes of corrupt officials; he used unofficial history as a bridge to resolve conflicts between nobles and nobles; he used unofficial history as a strategy to control floods, secure borders, promote imperial examinations, and benefit people's livelihood. From launching the "Unofficial History Newspaper of the Ming Dynasty" to gather people's hearts, to establishing a library to inherit the cultural heritage, and then to promoting the legislation of the "Unofficial History Law" to solidify the foundation, he used a pen to rewrite the official ecology of the Ming Dynasty and protect thousands of people.
The monarch and his ministers know each other and laugh and chat for eternity; unofficial history forges souls and the people's hearts are forever solid. This time-travel journey that started with laughter and brought peace to the country with wisdom finally made Hongwu prosperous for generations to come, creating an eternal legend in which kings and ministers know each other and the people's hearts are at home.
