[Great Ming]+ [Feel-good story]+ [Nanyang]+ [Emperor]+ [Infrastructure]+ [Multiple female leads] A California wildfire sent Zhu Shengfeng, a Chinese student studying abroad, to Luzon in Nanyang in 1639, at the end of the Ming dynasty.

Far away in the Great Ming, Chongzhen gazed sorrowfully at the crooked-neck tree before him. “Cheng’en, go save yourself!” “After I die, cover my face with my hair. Do not harm a single commoner!” Just then, a “family letter” was secretly delivered.
