From the Start, I Replaced Zhu Cilang, and Ming's Restoration Went Live

In the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the Ming Dynasty fell. The crown prince, Zhu Cilang, was caught in the chaos of battle, and historical records say nothing of what became of him.

Amid the snow and wind, a soul from the modern age transmigrated into the body of this fallen crown prince. Zhu Lu, a man driven to the brink by his times, kindled the flames of vengeance in his darkest hour.

He witnessed the rot within the Zhu family's dynasty and saw the bloodshed wrought by the Qing cavalry. He understood that the Ming Dynasty's defeat was inevitable, the result of troubles at home and abroad, while the Qing Dynasty's rise stood for violence and enslavement. He neither worshiped his ancestors' achievements nor feared the enemy's iron hooves.

“The Ming deserved to fall, but the Qing is no better! If this land is to be saved, I must become the answer to this age of chaos!”

A miraculous livestream appeared, and every step he took was witnessed by his ancestors. From Zhu Yuanzhang to Zhu Di, from Zhu Gaochi to Chongzhen, the Zhu emperors could only watch from behind the screen as this unyielding descendant rose from the depths of despair and sought a new beginning for the people of the realm.

This is the story of a prince who no longer served the emperor, a man who truly fought for the people of the world.

A journey through blood and fire, clashes of iron and bone, a turbulent age woven from intrigue and war,
