Chen Chuan, a graduate student in the history department, woke up and became Zhu Di, the king of Yan who was pretending to be crazy in Peiping.
At this time, Zhu Yunwen had ascended the throne, the five kings of Zhou, Hunan, Qi, Dai, and Min were convicted one after another, and the imperial army was approaching Peiping. There are eyes and ears all over the Yan Palace, and Zhang Bing and Xie Gui are under surveillance outside. The three sons may become hostages at any time. What's even more fatal is that Zhu Di just broke his head - as long as he behaves a little normally, he will be convinced that he pretended to be crazy and deceived the emperor, and everyone in the house will die.
In order to survive, Chen Chuan can only continue to go crazy.
But he knew that even if Jingnan succeeded, it would only be the beginning of the story.
Clan salaries, corruption of guards, land annexation, salt administration corruption, heavy water transportation, craftsmen trapped in craftsmanship, all sea trade turned to smuggling... These cracks buried deep in the foundation of the Ming Dynasty will eventually drag the empire into the abyss more than two hundred years later.
In this life, he not only wants to seize the throne.
He also needs to make Ming Dynasty no longer rely on a certain Ming Jun before it can move forward.
