My name is Shi Ye, and I’m a history streamer with barely any followers. Lately, my livestream has blown up!
I said the Manchus would enter through Xifeng Pass, and the very next day, news of the Ming army crushing the enemy beyond the pass was trending!
I joked that potatoes and sweet potatoes were national treasures, and before long, the discovery of high-yield crops in the Ming dynasty had the whole internet in shock!
Fans across the internet call me the “Prophet Emperor.” Only I know that I’m just a hack who reads from historical sources and cracks jokes!
Then one day, I unlocked a new System feature: once a month, I could possess a Ming-era Imperial Guard who shared my name.
When I put on the flying-fish uniform and stepped onto the streets of the capital for the first time, I discovered that history had already been changed beyond recognition by the things I’d “said.”
Even stranger, why was the supposedly stubborn and self-willed Chongzhen Emperor looking at me with such warmth and admiration, with just a hint of amusement?
It was as if he knew everything!
