Hongwu's Rebellious Son: This Empire Should Have Been Mine!

In the fifteenth year of Hongwu, the seventeenth prince, Zhu Bai, goes mad!

He snatches officials, power, and resources, turning the Ming court upside down!

Furious, Zhu Yuanzhang bestows on him the title Prince of Xiang and kicks him out to his fief, hoping he’ll never rise again!

But in the twenty-fifth year of Hongwu, Crown Prince Zhu Biao dies suddenly, and Zhu Yunwen is named heir to the throne.

Within his fief, Zhu Bai throws back his head and laughs, boldly revealing his ambition.

In Yingtian, three jin of memorials arrive every day, every word cutting to the heart.

Old Zhu is enraged. He summons his rebellious son back to the capital, intending to chop off his head with his own hands to warn the other princes.

Little does he know, the hunter and the prey have already switched places.

The Ming Empire is Zhu Bai’s for the taking.
