[Dark Comedy, Satisfying Read + Infinite Reincarnation + Anti-Cliche Late Ming + Rule-Based Revival]
While others transmigrate to the late Ming, get cheat abilities, and conquer the world, Hu Xunhuan's full-time job is finding creative ways to die!
From the start, he transmigrates into the imperial palace's charcoal room as a low-ranking eunuch. He doesn't know the palace rules and says the wrong thing, so he's beaten to death on the spot, setting a record for the fastest death.
From then on, he's trapped in the Ming dynasty, embarking on an endless cycle of reincarnation in its final years!
He hates evil and holds grudges over the smallest things. The moment he wakes up, he starts plotting revenge.
From eunuchs, commoners, refugees, merchants, and soldiers to generals and court officials... He experiences every level of Ming society and suffers countless absurd, humiliating deaths.
After hundreds of cycles, Hu Xunhuan finally sees the cruel truth. Under the rules of the real world:
"Bringing endless silver will cause inflation. Bringing endless food will offend monopolistic merchant groups. Bringing advanced firearms will only make the powerful factions join forces to kill me. This is a dead end no cheat ability can solve!"
When he is reincarnated as the empire's highest commander, Zhu Youjian, he relies solely on the ironclad rules laid down in the Great Ming Code and the Great Instructions.
The people of the Ming have suffered under privilege for far too long. They rise up in response, exercising the right to arrest officials granted to them by the Great Instructions.
The literati, gentry, and nobility are dealt with so thoroughly that they howl in distress...
With the emperor and the people united, they put down the rebels at home and defeat the Eastern Tartars abroad, breathing life into a shattered Ming dynasty on the verge of collapse and bringing about the glorious Chongzhen Revival!
Packed with jokes, with reincarnation kicking in immediately upon death, this is a fun revenge romp with no tragic melodrama and nothing depressing.
