A graduate student in science and engineering from the twenty-first century is caught in an accident.
By an uncanny twist of fate, he transmigrates into the body of the Tianqi Emperor, Zhu Youxiao, who drowned after falling ill.
That year, Huang Taiji once again assembled a massive army and attacked Jinzhou and Ningyuan.
That year, northern Shaanxi suffered years of severe drought. The authorities nevertheless continued to demand taxes, and the people, driven to desperation, followed Wang Er in rebellion. The great peasant uprisings at the end of the Ming dynasty began this way.
That year, the Shanxi merchant alliance had just established trade ties with Huang Taiji, selling the Manchu Qing salt, iron pots, grain, iron goods, saltpeter, and sulfur from the Ming.
That year, the Netherlands had entered its Golden Age. Known as the “Carriers of the Sea,” it had established outposts across Southeast Asia and even in Taiwan.
See how this transmigrated graduate student in science and engineering rewrites history and restores the Ming dynasty to glory!
