I Went Back to the Ming Dynasty to Serve as a Strategist

Modern historian Shen Yanci transmigrates one night into the Ming Dynasty, becoming a poor scholar with no power or influence.

No System, no supernatural abilities, and certainly no world-defying high-tech inventions.

All he has is a thorough knowledge of Ming history and a pair of eyes that can see through people.

From a young scholar trapped in a desperate situation to a newcomer navigating the official world one careful step at a time;

from maneuvering between rival factions to stirring up turmoil at court.

He takes on corrupt officials, clears wrongful convictions, secures the borders, and steadies the court.

He neither curries favor with the powerful nor defies fate to change the world. Relying only on genuine strategy and courage, he carves out a path to power in the treacherous Ming court.

This is the legend of an ordinary man who turns the tables through wits in the most authentic of Ming-era officialdom.
