Chen Mingyuan died suddenly.
Before his sudden death, he was the CEO of an Internet company. He had no wife or children, and his parents died young. His only regret was that he had never experienced the feeling of "home" in his life.
When he opened his eyes again, he became Zhu Houcong, a young man who was about to ascend the throne in the 16th year of Zhengde in the Ming Dynasty.
Before she could be happy, there was a burst of crying in Prince Xing's Mansion - the biological mother, Mrs. Jiang, knelt down and the 14-year-old boy was trembling. On the way to Beijing, he learned that he had been kidnapped this time when he "ascended to the throne". Yang Tinghe, a powerful official in the court, was waiting to take advantage of him. Empress Dowager Zhang in the palace was eyeing him. The real Jiajing in history struggled between power and family affection all his life, and finally became a lonely alchemy maniac.
Chen Mingyuan (now named Zhu Houcong) looked at all this and made a decision:
"Fuck the imperial hegemony, I just want to live a good life in this life."
So he started——
Use modern negotiation skills to settle the grand ceremony and coax the two queen mothers into becoming biological mothers;
Use KPI assessment to reform the court, making officials love and hate it;
Using the three-stage attack tactic to defeat the Mongolian cavalry, he also adopted Qi Jiguang and Wang Yangming as his younger brothers;
Using the principles of economics to open the sea ban, the Ming Dynasty navy can go to the sea a hundred years ahead of schedule.
He won the world, but he never forgot his original intention——
When his biological mother was seriously ill, he stayed at her bedside for seven days and nights, fully clothed;
When the Queen gave birth, he was so nervous that he circled outside the delivery room and was even more panicked than in the previous court;
As his sons grew up, he began to have headaches: the eldest son was too honest, the second son was too stubborn, and the third son was too naughty;
The old ministers left one by one. Before his death, Wang Yangming said to him: "Knowing and doing are one. Your Majesty has done it."
At the age of 58, he voluntarily abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor.
He smiled and said: "This life is worth it."
