Late Ming: A Life Transmigrated as the Tianqi Emperor

(Ming Dynasty, slow-paced farming, no factional power struggles, no melodrama, harem, hard-core industry, expanding the realm) A fated wage slave from the twenty-first century transmigrates into the Chongzhen Emperor Zhu Youxiao.

With the Manchus led by the old boar skin closing in step by step, what will he do?

He sends Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, and other key Donglin faction figures out to serve elsewhere, and transfers the heads of the various factions among the Six Ministries' Censors. Factional power struggles? Not happening!

He also saves his birth mother, Lady Wang, from dying young in 1619. The Palace Shift Incident? Not happening!

Scorched-earth defenses in Liaodong, making the Manchus rich overnight? Not happening!

He puts Xu Guangqi to work and widely introduces high-yield crops like sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn. Famine? Not happening!

Coking, iron smelting, and steelmaking: unable to cast iron cannons? Not happening!

He gathers renowned physicians like Wu Youxing and Zhang Jingyue, and combines their work with optical-grade glass. Failure to develop modern medicine? Not happening!

He puts Sun Chengzong, Xiong Tingbi, Yuan Chonghuan, Sun Chuanting, and countless others to good use. Our Great Ming has more brilliant generals than anyone could count!

A century-long plan must put education first! Education reform based on Germany's advanced dual education system is essential!

Why write so many brainless plot points that create conflict just for the sake of conflict? Just make it satisfying!

You can write with your head on straight, and readers can read with theirs. So why write a brainless novel?
