The moment he woke up, Lin Yuan found that he was Zhu Xiongying - the eldest grandson of the Ming Dynasty, the son of Prince Zhu Biao, and the most beloved grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang.
In two months, it will be his eighth birthday.
It was also the day of his "untimely death" in history books.
There is chronic poison hidden in the medicine bowl, rosemary in the pillow is incompatible with each other, and the eunuch serving beside him is someone else's spy. What is hidden behind the smile of loving stepmother Lu? What kind of opponent will the young Zhu Yunwen be in the future? And Zhu Di, the fourth uncle who guards Peiping, will he be an enemy or a friend twenty years from now?
The eight-year-old child stepped on the tip of a knife every step he took in this cannibalistic palace.
But Lin is far from an ordinary child. Five years as a special forces soldier taught him to stay calm in desperate situations; the knowledge of a graduate student in the history department allowed him to see everyone's ending.
He wants to live.
He wants to rewrite history.
He wanted those who were waiting to see him die to watch him with their own eyes - step by step to reach the highest position.
From a child who was plotted against, to an emperor who controls the chess game. Twenty years of forbearance, twenty years of gaming. When the war over Jingnan rises again, when the duel between uncle and nephew comes, will he still be the loser this time?
A modern soul, a legend that defies fate and changes destiny.
