Ming Dynasty, Yongle Era: From the Start, I Led Zhu Di's Imperial Campaign

Zhu Zhanjun transmigrates to the Yongle era and becomes the Prince of Zhao's heir. He was raised among commoners for ten years, and his return sends the capital into an uproar!

"What? There's no money to build the new capital? You should've said so earlier!"

"Japanese pirates are running rampant in Liaodong? Give me five thousand soldiers and I'll toss every last one into the sea to feed the turtles!"

Zhu Di is overjoyed: "Grandson, you're incredible! Come, come, you can lead the troops in my place on this northern campaign!"

What does Northern Yuan matter?

Old Zheng, lend me a few ships. I'll go fishing in the East China Sea and wipe out a country while I'm at it!

Zhu Zhanji: "My father is the Crown Prince, and I'm the Crown Prince's heir!"

Zhu Zhanjun: "What heir? I call you that to show you respect. If I don't, I'll bury you!"

As Zhu Zhanjun displays ever greater abilities and earns more and more merit, Zhu Di decides to depose the Crown Prince, appoint Zhu Zhanjun as the imperial heir, and draft an edict announcing to all under Heaven that the Ming throne will pass directly to the imperial heir.

Zhu Gaosui, Prince of Zhao: "So I'm the retired emperor now?"

The Prince of Han: "Nephew, don't worry. If you become emperor, I absolutely won't rebel!"
