Just after arriving in the Ming dynasty, Ye Chen faces a deadly choice: become Zhu Yuanzhang’s chief regent for his orphaned heir, or be named by Zhu Yuanzhang for execution and sent back to the modern era!
He decisively chooses the latter. Three years later, he has embezzled a million, and on the courthouse steps he unleashes a barrage of abuse at Zhu Yuanzhang, waiting for a quick death.

Staring at Ye Chen’s face, which matches the one he saw in the future, Zhu Yuanzhang is completely stunned. “Do I kill him, or keep him?”
Meanwhile, Empress Ma has the same golden finger and is quietly seeing through the whole situation.
Looking at the imperial edict in his hands, Ye Chen falls into deep thought. “Did I mess up my ‘please-kill-me plan’?”
