I Became Zhao Gou: From the Start, I Take on the Imperial Guards

Zhu Di opened his eyes and found himself in the body of Zhao Gou of the Southern Song.

The court was pushing for peace, the Imperial Guard was rotten to the core, someone in the inner palace was leaking information, someone in the provinces was making off with the national treasury, and rebels were waiting to force him to flee south.

But the man they were waiting for was not the Emperor Zhao, who knew only how to retreat and give in. It was Zhu Di, the Yongle Emperor of the Great Ming.

Investigate the Imperial Guard, secure the waterways, smoke out the moles, bring the court to heel, recruit famous generals, and guard the palace gates.

Whoever tries to make the Son of Heaven their puppet, I’ll send them to their grave first.

This time, I will not retreat.

This time, I will personally play this hopeless game of the Southern Song.
