Great Ming: I Take You Through Time, and You Want Me to Rule the Empire

Zhou Chen transmigrates to the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty.

The System binds itself to the fate of the Ming Dynasty. This lousy System demands that Zhou Chen extend the dynasty's fate to five hundred years before he can return to the present day...

In a fit of anger, Zhou Chen takes Zhu Yuanzhang to see how Zhu Laosi stages a rebellion. Afterward, he takes him to see how the Ming Dynasty's God of War, Zhu Qizhen, ends up begging at the city gates.

Finally, he shows him Chongzhen and that crooked-neck tree, letting Old Zhu witness how the Ming Dynasty started from nothing and ended with a single rope.

Zhu Biao: "Uncle, don't joke about our Yingying! He's only four or five years old."

Old Zhu: "Immortal Master Zhou, Brother Zhou, my good brother. I'm begging you, save the Zhu family! We're nearly out of capable people!"

Zhu Yunwen: "Zhou, just kick me to death! I don't want to live anymore. I have no face to meet my ancestors."

Chongzhen: "Emperor Gao, the founding emperor! The Ming Dynasty is gone. Everything is gone...! Stop fighting me for the rope. I'm in a hurry... See you at Coal Hill."
