Great Ming: I Told You to Hang Yourself, Not Become a Tyrant

[Court intrigue + scheming protagonist + satisfying revenge + no System + single heroine]

After transmigrating as the Chongzhen Emperor of the Ming dynasty, he has less than half a year before the Jisi Incident. Huang Taiji is about to take a detour through Mongolia, breach the Great Wall, and threaten the capital!

What? The treasury is empty, so we can't fight the barbarians? Don't panic. Let me kill a few ministers first!

What? Li Zicheng is going to rebel? Don't panic. I'll make him a general and send him to fight Huang Taiji!

What? The Later Jin barbarians are invincible? Foreign pirates overseas are threatening to invade in an alliance? Heh. If you don't want your people wiped out, then from now on, you'd better learn to sing and dance!

Years later, Huang Taiji and the pale-skinned foreigners from the West become utterly obsessed with singing, dancing, and rap...

Years later, Chongzhen is a tyrant in the eyes of the warlords, but an emperor for the ages in the hearts of the people!
