Chongzhen of the Great Ming: Your Majesty, Stop While You Can!

Killing Wei Zhongxian right off the bat is completely brainless and shows a lack of consideration for the actual situation. Wei Zhongxian was bloodthirsty, but what happened after he killed them all? The eunuch faction has seized control of the government and has become a system.

The Ming Dynasty fell due to lack of money, land annexation, and its flawed system. Two major groups annexed land: the imperial family and nobles, who had seized countless plots of land over 270 years; and the scholar-official class, who had also amassed vast tracts of land over the same period. How many independent farmers remained by the time of Chongzhen?

I'm reopening this thread because the previous thread was too chaotic! Whether comparing the politics of the Ming Dynasty or the present day, the underlying logic is actually the same! Let's assume we are a mid-level official in the eunuch faction at the end of the Ming Dynasty!

It's beautiful! 🙂

It's well-written, but too short.

Ugh, I always fatten up my plants before checking on them, and they end up dying! QAQ The author is one of the few who insists on using logic in writing.

Hey, now I hope everyone can leave more comments and give some encouragement, and it would be even better if you could vote!

So it's a new book by a big name; no wonder it has such powerful writing.

I read it twice before I understood the characters' scheming and intrigue. The power struggles were quite sophisticated but complex; many people probably wouldn't understand the game. Haha, it's a web novel, so it's written a bit more simply, but I quite like this kind of political intrigue.

I'll save this for now and come back later when it's longer.
