Great Ming: Zhu Chongba, I'm the True Son of Heaven

After transmigrating, he becomes Zhu Yun Tong, Zhu Yuanzhang's grandson. Though he is the legitimate grandson born to the principal wife, the old Zhu doesn't value him.

Zhu Yuanzhang names his illegitimate grandson Zhu Yunwen Crown Prince and sends Zhu Yun Tong to govern a remote, impoverished fief.

But on the day he sets out, Zhu Yun Tong is unusually excited.

Grandfather, you miscalculated. Leaving the capital to govern my fief was my plan all along.

I wanted to get away from Yingtian Prefecture and build up my own power elsewhere.

Six years later, as Zhu Yuanzhang lies gravely ill and prepares to pass the throne to Zhu Yunwen,

Zhu Yun Tong returns to court with a million troops and surrounds Yingtian Prefecture.

Zhu Yuanzhang roars in fury: "You insolent brat! What is this supposed to be, are you rebelling against me?"

Zhu Yun Tong: "Old man, I just want to ask you: which of us is the Son of Heaven, me or Zhu Yunwen?"

Zhu Yuanzhang: "Zhu Yunwen is the Crown Prince I appointed. Who do you think the Son of Heaven is?"

Zhu Yun Tong: "Zhu Yunwen isn't fit to be emperor! Today, I shall purge the court of traitors and destroy that so-called Crown Prince!"
