Old Zhu Sneaks a Peek at My Diary, and the Ming Dynasty Becomes an Empire on Which the Sun Never Sets

After transmigrating to the Ming dynasty, he becomes Zhu Yuntong, the emperor's eldest grandson, just as Crown Prince Zhu Biao falls gravely ill.

Zhu Yuntong knows the miserable fate awaiting him, but powerless to change things, he can only pour out his thoughts in a diary.

Who could have guessed that a palace maid close to him would secretly report every word of it to Zhu Yuanzhang?

"Zhu Yunwen has been clever and studious since childhood, sincerely filial, and very much like Biao'er. He's the best choice for Crown Prince."

Old Zhu has spent his whole life being wise and mighty, yet he actually names that idiot Zhu Yunwen Crown Prince. Even a pig would make a better choice than him!

"For the Ming dynasty to endure for generations, it will be safest in the hands of my own flesh and blood. All my descendants will be enfeoffed as princes!"

Enfeoff them, sure. Otherwise Zhu the Fourth wouldn't have raised an army, seized his nephew's throne, and brought the Ming dynasty down by letting the princes devour it. The emperor wouldn't have ended up hanging himself, either.

Zhu Yuanzhang: You little brat, Grandpa is giving you this fine throne. Stop running your mouth behind my back. What, you don't want to be emperor and would rather live as a carefree prince? Dream on!
