Transmigrating to the Hongwu Era: The Direct Line Secures the Throne

Also known as: Transmigrating into Hongwu: I, Zhu Xiongying, Turn the Hongwu Era Upside Down

A modern young man unexpectedly transmigrates into the Great Ming during the Hongwu era and becomes Zhu Xiongying, the eldest legitimate son of Crown Prince Zhu Biao. Knowing the tragedies history has in store, he carefully maneuvers through the imperial palace from childhood: protecting his birth mother, securing the Eastern Palace, foiling Lady Lü’s schemes, and preventing Zhu Yunwen from taking the throne. He turns the tide, saves his father Zhu Biao and the Huai-xi nobility, and rewrites a history steeped in bloodshed. He builds alliances with the nobility within the court and commands military power beyond it. He campaigns north against the steppe and expands the empire westward. Born of the emperor’s legitimate line, he defies fate, puts an end to the Jingnan Rebellion, reshapes the Great Ming, and ushers in a golden age in which all nations come to pay tribute!
