[Extending the Great Ming dynasty’s life by a thousand years!]

Chen Hao, a graduate student researching Ming history, dies suddenly on the night before his thesis defense. When he opens his eyes, he has become Zhu Xiongying, the eldest legitimate grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, founding emperor of the Great Ming!

But he is only eight years old, has been poisoned with a slow-acting toxin, and has just one month left before his premature death in history!

His stepmother, Madam Lü, smiles tenderly as she brings him “medicine.” The Embroidered Uniform Guard hasn’t even sharpened its blades, and the court is full of officials with their own agendas.

Worse still, he knows exactly what is coming: three months from now, his grandmother, Empress Ma, will die. Ten years later, his father, Zhu Biao, will pass away. Then his fourth uncle, Zhu Di, will rebel, turning the Great Ming upside down!

To stay alive, he has no choice but to gamble!

“Grandpa Emperor, your grandson had a dream… In the dream, I died, Grandmother died, and Father died… In the end, Fourth Uncle rebelled!”

Zhu Yuanzhang’s pupils contracted.

From then on, an eight-year-old boy began to stir up the Great Ming:

He abolished the chancellorship, established the cabinet, planted potatoes, made cement, reformed the imperial examinations, and built saltworks!

While the officials at court were still debating classical texts, he had already drawn a map of the world.

When everyone believed the Great Ming could last only 276 years, he said:

“Grandpa Emperor, I want the Great Ming to last a thousand years.”

Zhu Yuanzhang wept openly. “I believe you!”
