Ming Dynasty 1627

I've traveled through time, so why isn't Wang Chengen, the standard NPC, in the Prince Xin's mansion?
……
Yes, in real history, Wang Chengen could never have appeared at the Prince Xin's residence.
— Li Chengen did have one, but he was just a eunuch with a title.
What are eunuchs? They're the little eunuchs behind the emperor in TV dramas.
By the way, the legendary imperial bodyguard Cao Huachun was not at the Prince Xin's residence at this time.
He was selected through a civil service examination for eunuchs after Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne.
……
But this is completely different from what's described in those time-travel novels!
Isn't this a bit too hardcore?
Never mind, it's alright.
Let us place this chess piece from later generations into this real "endgame of the late Ming Dynasty".
Flying towns invade and vanquish, dismantle and maneuver, slay dragons to turn the tide, and vie for supremacy.
Within these nineteen meridians of heaven and earth, one plays chess with the beasts of the court, with wild boars from beyond the pass, and with the endless natural disasters.
Only when the smoke of war clears do we realize the extent of the devastation that has befallen this land.
Who holds the center, who falls to the sidelines, who ultimately becomes the player, and who, in the end, is nothing but ashes!
Come, come! Zhu Youjian of the Ming Dynasty, please take the black stone and go first!
This book is also known as "The True Record of the Holy Ancestor Emperor of the Ming Dynasty", "The Ming Dynasty is a Bit Difficult to Save, But the Problem Isn't Major", and "The Revival of the First Ming Empire".
