After Zhu Yuanzhang died, he discovered that he had become the founding spirit of the Ming Dynasty, floating above the main hall of the imperial palace. There, he witnessed the history that followed: the Jingnan Campaign, the Tumu Crisis, an emperor who pursued immortality, an emperor who loved carpentry, the Nine-Thousand-Year-Old, the Crooked-Necked Emperor, and the fall of the Ming Dynasty!
Then he was reborn, only to discover that he had become Fang Xiaoru!
The Jingnan Campaign had already begun, and Zhu Di was leading his troops toward the natural barrier of the Yangtze River.
The question was, should Zhu Yuanzhang help Zhu Di or Zhu Yunwen?
Or should he become emperor again?
One thing was certain: he could not become Fang Xiaoru, the man whose unfilial son would have his entire clan exterminated!
