Synopsis

I am Zhu Xiongying, Zhu Yuanzhang’s eldest grandson and the most qualified heir to the throne of the Ming Dynasty.

Eight years ago, I survived when I was supposed to die. The price was that I had to become the most powerful minister in the Ming court to earn a hundred years of life in the future.

So...

I sat the imperial exams and passed as the top candidate, then served as an official in constant fear under Zhu Yuanzhang’s watchful eye.

I will expand the Ming Empire’s borders, restore the nation to greatness, and shine for future generations, just like the glorious Tang Dynasty!

Recommend Some Worthwhile Ming Dynasty Novels

I’ve read several books about the Ming Dynasty. Overall, they had excellent prose, deep historical knowledge, and well-crafted characters. But a few seem to share the same flaws: too much exposition and overly contrived schemes. Any good recommendations?

Please Recommend High-Quality Historical Novels, Preferably About Emperors, Princes, or Imperial Grandsons

Please stop recommending mindless System novels or stories about princes and grandsons of the emperor who were raised among commoners. Those plots are just ridiculous.
