Great Ming: Grandpa, You Want Me to Marry Changsun Wugou?

I transmigrated to the Empire's mainland and became Zhu Yuntong, the least favored grandson of the Great Ming emperor.

One day, at court, as they discussed how to fund the northern campaign, Huang Zicheng proposed an alliance through marriage with the immensely wealthy Zhangsun family and recommended Zhu Yuntong as the groom.

Thus began Zhu Yuntong's rise to power.

Zhu Yuanzhang: "Biao, you've left me a fine grandson. With Yuntong around, the Great Ming's territory will stretch for far more than a million li."

Zhu Yunwen: "Huang Zicheng, tell me, were you Zhu Yuntong's spy planted at my side, lying in wait..."
