Great Ming: The Deposed Emperor Chongzhen? I'm Zhu Yuanzhang!

Time: The late night of the nineteenth day of the third month of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen.

When Zhao Mu wakes, a powerful feeling of suffocation has him in its grip!

Beneath the famous crooked tree on Coal Hill, Wang Cheng'en lies prostrate, weeping tears of blood. "Your Majesty, this servant has attended you on your way to the afterlife..."

Zhao Mu struggles desperately. "Damn it, did I transmigrate into the body of the useless deposed emperor Chongzhen, who hanged himself?"

Wang Cheng'en: "Your Majesty, you're not dead?"

Zhao Mu touches his neck, which nearly got broken by the noose. "Chongzhen, you useless fool! I, your ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang, have been angered back to life by you!"

Wang Cheng'en: "Your Majesty, the bandits of the Great Shun are about to attack."

Zhao Mu: "Don't panic. The spirit of the Great Ancestor has possessed me. I will rebuild the Great Ming. Come, follow me out of the palace!"

Ding!

A soul meeting the requirements has been detected. The Divine Emperor System has activated...

Zhao Mu sets himself his first small goal: break out of the capital, head straight for Shanhai Pass, seize military command, and kill Wu Sangui...
