Great Ming: Zhu Di Hears News of the Dynasty's Fall

In the fifteenth year of the Hongwu era, Zhu Xiongying, the legitimate imperial eldest grandson, died at the tender age of eight. On the day of his burial, his body mysteriously vanished.

The Hongwu Emperor flew into a rage, executing 896 eunuchs deemed responsible, along with 1,300 Imperial Guards and palace guards.

In the twenty-fourth year of the Hongwu era, in a small courtyard by the Qinhuai River, Zhu Huai had been in the Ming Dynasty for over nine years since he transmigrated.

At that moment, he was reminiscing about the past with an old man.

"Old Master, I can only tell you what happened after I turned eight."

"I'll let you in on a secret: I actually climbed out of my coffin."

"Good grief, I don't even know what terrible crime I committed. I was only eight back then, and thousands of imperial guards surrounded me!"

The old man suddenly froze. His eyes reddened, his hands trembled, and he cried out in excitement:

"Grandson! You're alive?!"

*Damn it! Is this old geezer crazy or something?

The old man stared blankly at Zhu Huai and said, in a voice that shook the world: "Do you want to be emperor?"

Zhu Huai: "Old Master, how many dishes did you have? You're drunk out of your mind!"

The old man grew flustered. "I'll let you in on a secret too: I'm Zhu Zhanji! You're my legitimate eldest grandson!"
