Li Jinglong from the Start: The System Helps Me Cling to My Two Dads!

“Ding! The Host is facing a ‘good-for-nothing’ crisis. The Great Ming's Best Son System has been activated!”

His soul transmigrates into Li Jinglong, the eldest legitimate son of a duke. From the start, he thinks he'll coast through life, only to discover that his future holds a lifetime of imprisonment at Zhu Di's hands?

Not a chance!

Zhu Yuanzhang: “My grandson is so filial and sensible!” (His eyes fill with tears as he pats Li Jinglong on the head.)

[System notification: Zhu Yuanzhang's favorability has soared. Imperial Favor +50!]

I use modern knowledge to improve firearms. [Ding! Redeemed: Advanced Gunpowder Formula!]

I use my people skills to save Zhu Biao. [Ding! Reward: Life-Extending Elixir Formula!]

At court, I debate the scholars and leave the civil officials spitting blood. Zhu Yuanzhang slaps the table in delight: “This kid really takes after me!”

The generals are won over. Lan Yu: “Young Marshal Li, you truly are a genius!”

From a historical “loser” to a pillar holding up the Ming dynasty, who says all I know how to do is waste money?

I'm clearly here to extend the Ming dynasty's life, and, as a bonus, raise Zhu Yuanzhang to be my own father!

[System notification: Congratulations, Host! You have overturned history and earned the achievement “Best Son of the Ages”!]
