He only wanted to be a carefree prince living in luxury, but somehow turned his fief into the Ming Dynasty’s leading model district.
Zhu Yuanzhang: “Second Son, why are you always mixing with merchants?”
Xia Ren: “Father, I just want them to… shed blood and tears for the Ming Dynasty!”
Watch as a modern soul makes his way through the Ming Dynasty, surviving the bloody turmoil of the Hongwu era while quietly steering the empire toward unprecedented prosperity!
