Great Ming: Wanli Slacks Off, and the Officials Beg Me to Ascend the Throne!

After transmigrating, he became Zhu Changluo, the shortest-lived emperor of the Great Ming, known as the One-Month Emperor.

It was still the Wanli era. Emperor Wanli was locked in a protracted struggle with his officials over whether his eldest son, Zhu Changluo, or his third son, Zhu Changxun, should be named crown prince.

In a fit of anger, Emperor Wanli simply gave up: he stopped attending court and stopped reviewing memorials.

From then on, the Great Ming's national strength plummeted, leaving the dynasty on the brink of disaster.

Zhu Changluo arrived in this world just as Japan invaded Korea. Toyotomi Hideyoshi planned to use Korea as a stepping stone to invade the Ming dynasty.

The entire court was at its wits' end. Just then, Zhu Changluo stepped forward and accepted the command to lead the expedition.

In a campaign to resist the Japanese and aid Korea, he forced Toyotomi Hideyoshi to bow his head and submit.

Nurhaci harbored treacherous ambitions, so Zhu Changluo wiped out his entire clan, cutting off the Later Jin's rise at its source.

Next, he crushed the Tatars in the north and the native chieftains in the south.

Mongolia, the Western Regions, Tibet, and Annam all became part of the Great Ming's territory.

With his great conquest complete, the officials jointly petitioned Emperor Wanli to abdicate and welcome Zhu Changluo to the throne.

Yet Zhu Changluo calmly replied, "Let's talk about the throne after I unify the world!"
