Jiajing's First Treacherous Minister

I clicked in just to reply with the book title: Who was the biggest traitor in the Jiajing reign? Of course, it was Jiajing himself! Who could be as treacherous and harmful to the people as the Emperor Wanshou?

A so-called treacherous minister is one whose fellow officials all know he is treacherous, but the common people call him a loyal minister. The key is that when he does something bad, he makes sure to find a good person to take the blame for him beforehand.

Yet another time traveler becomes someone else's servant.

My personal opinion: The plot involving pirates, Japanese pirates, and maritime trade was overdone; I skipped through it. I don't know about others, but personally, I was drawn to the book by the title because I expected the protagonist to simultaneously deceive the Jiajing Emperor and outwit the Yan faction, all within the central government.

Of all the time-travel novels I've read so far, only "50 Years After the Battle of Yamen" is closest to reality, without a doubt. It's exciting, but also quite tragic, and it involves a group of people who transmigrate together, all ordinary people without any cheat codes or advanced technology. They endure years of hardship, countless brushes with death, and unwavering dedication to achieve even the smallest things. 🙂

Why do I always have my subordinates call me by my courtesy name? It seems a bit disrespectful.

They really rebelled! 😰

Isn't the Eastern Barbarians of the Ming Dynasty the Ryukyu Kingdom? I'm totally confused.

Great, excellent, exceptionally good, exceptionally good, super good, incredibly good. 😰
