On the Day of the Imperial Examination, My Identity as the Ming Crown Prince's Eldest Grandson Is Exposed

Zhu Ying, a transmigrator who was once the eldest grandson of the Ming emperor but grew up among the common people, settles on the banks of the Qinhuai River and depends on Old Huang, a veteran Imperial Guard, for support.

He takes the Imperial Academy entrance exam and sits the civil service examinations, hoping to return to the center of power.

On the day of the Imperial Academy's final exam, the academy's director does everything he can to make things difficult for Zhu Ying, unwilling to let him enter the imperial city and take the palace examination.

Then an imperial edict arrives, summoning Zhu Ying to sit the palace examination!

Just as everyone is giving thanks, Zhu Ying stares blankly at the lofty Ming emperor!

Zhu Ying: "Grandpa Huang, why is it you?!"

Every minister in the hall is stunned.

The ministers: "What did he just call His Majesty? Grandpa?!"
