   Reader note

   In reality, they were just ordinary people who transmigrated; there's no such thing as a wish-fulfillment story. The common people suffered, the human heart is the most terrifying thing, and human nature is even more unpredictable. Power struggles are born out of necessity. Unofficial histories are also part of official history. We don't really know what the real Ming Dynasty was like. This book tries its best to restore the truth of that time. Betrayal, growth after struggle, and ultimately, the realization that they were powerless and that their own historical views were wrong. The Ming Dynasty is not the one we romanticize through our later filters, but it is also the era we most want to explore, the era we most admire, and the era of resilience.
