Countdown to Jiajing

Zhao Mingyuan, a graduate student in the Department of History, woke up and found himself in the prince's palace in the 27th year of Jiajing's reign. He became a down-and-out prince targeted by Yan Song's gang. Snow lay on dead branches outside the window, and the smell of sandalwood and old wood intertwined indoors. The servants whispered and revealed murderous intentions - a perjury of "rebellion" was about to arrive with the imperial envoy. Relying on his prophetic knowledge of history and modern reasoning, he caught flaws in whispers on snowy trails, secret rooms in warehouses, and secret conversations under lamps, and set up a bureau to expose the ironclad evidence of corruption, reverse the deadlock, and win real power. However, this is just the beginning. The fiefdom tax system, coastal Japanese invasion, hidden sea trade lines, and firearms innovation meshed like gears, drawing him into the double whirlpool of the court and the battlefield. From nurturing talents in the school to rectifying military affairs, from verbal battles in the capital to bloody battles in the southeast, he used modern knowledge to leverage the ancestral system, balancing the emperor's intentions and the safety of the prince at every step. "The Ming Xiaoyao King" (also known as "Countdown to Jiajing") uses high-density details and multi-line plots to present Chang'an's twelve-hour on-site immersion and the tension of every second. It tells a magnificent legend of a time traveler who uses knowledge and courage to change his personal life and death and shake the direction of the empire in the bloody storm.
