Chongzhen: Give Me Ten Years, and I'll Make the Ming Great Again

[Political Intrigue] [Scheming] [Cold-Blooded] [Decisive and Ruthless]

After reading books, shameless people often become even more shameless.

The Donglin Party indulges in drunken revelry in the gentle embraces of Jiangnan, while leaving the soldiers of Liaodong to suffer hunger and cold in the frozen wilderness.

For the sake of profit, the Eight Great Shanxi Merchants collude with the Jurchens, smuggle supplies to aid the enemy, and sell the Later Jin the border army's deployment plans.

The Eunuch Party brings ruin to the nation and misery to its people, while the Donglin Party gnaws away at the foundations of the state.

Confronted with this rotten Ming dynasty, Qin Ming, who transmigrated into the body of the Chongzhen Emperor, has only one thing to say: "Kill them, confiscate their estates, and distribute their land."

The Eight Great Shanxi Merchants will have their estates confiscated, their clans exterminated, and their heads displayed at the nine border passes. The gentry of Jiangnan will be relocated to Liaodong and sent to the front lines.

I don't care if you're with the Eunuch Party or the Donglin Party.

If you're not with the "Imperial Party," then you're part of a faction!

The Great Ming Code: Any court official who forms a faction and disrupts the government shall be executed. His wife and daughters shall become slaves, and his property shall be confiscated!

The laws of the ancestors must not be abolished. The Donglin Party's strictest father has arrived.

We'll drink together from this golden cup, but I will show no mercy with the naked blade.

I am not Zhu Youjian, who can do nothing but weep and beg his ministers for donations. I have plenty of ruthlessness and methods at my disposal.

If your scalp itches, I'll peel it off.

If the water is too cold, into the oil you go.

Give me ten years, and I'll give you a golden age under the Chongzhen Emperor!
