    A good historical article with brains, but forced into the trap. Also known as "The Ming Zhenhai King". Zhang Wuxian, a 36-year-old entrepreneurial failure, traveled back eleven years to Hongwu and became a 20-year-old spirited young man. He originally wanted to lie down and be a salted fish, but his severe obsessive-compulsive disorder made him unable to see anything "unreasonable" - wrong food prices must be corrected, medical care is backward, the army must be corrected, and Ming Dynasty must not conquer the world. What's even more outrageous is that he has a system in his mind that automatically stuffs him with solutions and supplies every time he suffers an episode of obsessive-compulsive disorder, without paying for it. So - he saved the dying Crown Princess Chang after childbirth, and Chang Yuchun's daughter survived; he vaccinated the emperor's eldest grandson Zhu Xiongying with cowpox, and the child who should have died at the age of 8 was alive and kicking; he gave infusions to rescue Queen Ma when she was critically ill, and Zhu Yuanzhang's favorite woman lived twenty more years; he diagnosed Zhu Biao's terminal illness in advance, so that the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty would no longer die young. Once these four people were alive, the history of the Ming Dynasty was completely rewritten - Emperor Jianwen was gone, the Battle of Jingnan was gone, and the Lan Yu Case was gone. Empress Ma recognized him as her adopted son and said "this is my son" when meeting people; Zhu Biao and Zhu Di called him brothers, one called him "virtuous brother" and the other called him "brother-in-law"; Xu Da took the initiative to marry his daughter to him, and he became the son-in-law of Wei Guogong; Lan Yu regarded him as his savior and blocked the knife for him in the court. Zhu Yuanzhang patted him on the shoulder and said, "You are the most diligent person we have ever seen in this life." Zhang Wuxian replied with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I am really not diligent... I am sick!" Later, he led Zheng He to capture the Shijian Yin Mountain, crossed the Pacific Ocean, discovered America, and planted the flag of the Ming Dynasty all over the world. On the day when the Ming Dynasty unified the world, he could finally lie down. But there is a tree planted crookedly in the yard...
