Synopsis

[Ming Dynasty + System + transmigrate + from the start + ruthless and decisive + Seal the Wolf's Mountain]

In the fourth month of the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, Crown Prince Zhu Biao passed away. In the ninth month of the same year, the Hongwu Emperor named Zhu Yunwen Crown Prince's Heir. One after another, a great many meritorious officials and nobles were slaughtered, like cooks discarded after the hare is dead.

Prince Ning Zhu Quan: Father, you must be killing meritorious officials because treacherous ministers are stirring up trouble at court. I have decided to raise an army in Heaven's name, put down the rebellion, purge the court of traitors, and save the nation from disaster.

Hongwu Emperor: What crime have I committed to deserve this? Are you going to force me to heed your remonstrance at swordpoint?

Prince Ning Zhu Quan: Father, you drove out the Mongols and restored China, earning immortal glory. In ancient times, Qin Prince Li Shimin's achievements were so great that no further title could be bestowed upon him, so he was granted the title of Supreme General of the Heavenly Strategy. Today, I shall follow that precedent and name you Retired Emperor! Father, please abdicate!
