After Zhu Yingying died, his soul transmigrated into the body of the eldest legitimate grandson of the Hongwu Emperor.
Crown Prince Zhu Biao was weak and benevolent, Zhu Yunwen was still an infant, and Prince of Yan Zhu Di watched hungrily from the frontier.
Knowing how history was supposed to unfold, Zhu Yingying took a deep breath and decided to live differently.
Not only did he avoid dying at the age of eight, he also snatched Zhu Yunwen’s throne right out from under him.
Before Zhu Yuanzhang died, he looked at his grandson Zhu Yingying beside his sickbed and finally passed away with a smile.
Crown Prince Zhu Yingying ascended the throne and changed the era name to Tianyou.
From the Dragon Throne, he surveyed the assembled officials and spoke slowly: “I want the Ming lands to stretch as far as the sun and moon shine!”
Standing below, Zhu Di silently clenched his fists.
