Great Ming: Zhu Yuanzhang Takes Over Chongzhen's Body and Goes on a Rampage

In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, the Ming emperor Zhu Yuanzhang died. But instead of being reincarnated, his soul transmigrated to the end of the Ming dynasty, entering the body of the Chongzhen Emperor, Zhu Youjian, just as he was hanging himself on Coal Hill.

After Zhu Yuanzhang was rescued, he discovered that his Ming dynasty had fallen and was stunned. But when he learned just how humiliating its downfall had been, he flew into a furious tirade!

What? The Donglin Party dares to challenge me, Old Zhu?

What? Li Zicheng dares to seize my empire?

What? The puny Qing dynasty thinks it can take on the Ming?

Damn it, I haven't even shown you what I'm made of, and you're already getting cocky! And these descendants of mine are useless as hell. They lost the country over a little trouble like this? What a joke!

"Song Nie, get up. We're leaving!"

"It's time to teach these grandsons how things are done!"

So Zhu Yuanzhang dropped the noose and strode off with Song Nie, beginning his campaign as Chongzhen: beating Li Zicheng, kicking the Qing to the curb, and rebuilding the Ming dynasty.
