"The Autocratic Ming Dynasty", Guan Sheng, level 5 author.

Category: History - Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties.

【Introduction】

The protagonist is the sixth son of Emperor Guangzong of the Ming Dynasty. He felt that the future Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian could not be allowed to be the emperor, so he shouted in the Forbidden City: I want to be the emperor!
【Golden Five Chapters】

Chapter 1: The Prince Writes an Imperial Edict. The protagonist, Zhu Xu, is on an archaeological expedition with a friend when a mine explodes. He travels back in time to the 44th year of the Wanli reign of the Ming Dynasty and becomes the sixth son of the Crown Prince, Zhu Youxu, and younger brother of the Tianqi Emperor, Zhu Youxiao. While the Emperor is busy working as a carpenter, the seven- or eight-year-old protagonist dares to write an imperial edict on his behalf, telling Sun Chuanting to temporarily leave the capital and wait for his chance to return.

Chapter 2: Eunuch Wei. The protagonist is young, running around the harem without complaint. But Emperor Chongzhen, Zhu Youjian, is no exception, as he's already older. The protagonist visits Empress Zhang in Kunning Palace, claiming to be seeking a favor, but actually seeking to steal some treasures. Afterward, he prepares to discipline Eunuch Wei, but first, he needs to see someone else.

Chapter 3, Luo Yangxing. The protagonist goes to a restaurant and has the owner meet with Luo Yangxing, the son of the Jinyiwei Commander-in-Chief. His goal is to have Luo Yangxing inform his father to submit a memorial overnight, resigning and recommending his son as his successor. This is to undermine Wei Zhongxian's power, as Empress Dowager Keshi is not in the palace at the time.

Chapter 4: Luo Sigong. Luo Sigong learns that his son has met someone and obtained a memorial impeaching him, which was then taken from the palace before the emperor even saw it. One can only imagine the power of the person behind this. Therefore, he quickly figures it out and goes to the palace to take action. The protagonist arranges for Cao Huachun to gather information and confirm the plan is complete. To win over Cao Huachun, he asks him to manage his residence. By the time Wei Zhongxian learns of this and returns to the palace, it's too late.

Chapter 5, Zhang Wenda. The protagonist enters the palace to meet the emperor, but the Tianqi Emperor, having spent the entire night working as a carpenter, finally returns to the palace to rest after hearing the protagonist's advice. The protagonist reviews memorials and discovers that the Minister of Personnel, Zhang Wenda, has resigned. He first visits Empress Zhang's residence but is stopped. He then goes to the Minister's home, only to be turned away. Desperate, he feigns the Empress's oral instructions, only to be allowed in.

【Brief Comment】

Guan Sheng, a level 5 author, has written four works, namely "Official and Business Paths in the Prosperous Era", "Autocratic Ming Dynasty", "Ming Court" and "Song Xu". The first one of them is no longer available now, probably because it was not signed.

But judging from the data, the best performing one is "The Autocratic Ming Dynasty".

There are 14 collections on Qidian, 15 collections on Shucheng, 44 fans, and 4 alliance leaders.

The story mainly tells about the time-traveling Zhu Youxu, who was originally just the emperor of the Tianqi Emperor. He was good at carpentry and worked with the Tianqi Emperor. He also got along well with Empress Zhang.

He was a man of foresight and had planned to suppress Wei Zhongxian early on to prevent the eunuchs from causing chaos in the government, which prevented Wei Zhongxian from succeeding in taking charge of the East Factory and the Imperial Guard. He was a man of great intelligence and was good at selecting and appointing people to positions, and he had long since cultivated his own team of supporters, including Cao Wenzhao and others.

However, he ultimately rewrote history, eliminating neither the Qing dynasty nor Li Zicheng's invasion of Beijing. He succeeded the Tianqi Emperor as the Jingzheng Emperor, expanding the Ming's territories to encompass the entire globe. Japanese pirates and Burmese kings were forced to submit or be educated. His sons, each with their own talents, established remarkable military exploits and commercial empires. Not only did he preserve the Ming dynasty, he also made it a globally renowned empire.

Therefore, in the end, this book truly conveys a feeling of dominating the world and ruling the Ming Dynasty.

Very good~
Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is a very good ideal.
