Great Ming: Zhu Yu Begs for Rain, and a Baby Pops Out of the Altar

[No CP + Child protagonist + Child of fortune + Ming Dynasty splendor + Heartwarming infrastructure development + Not a saint]

An academic from the Agricultural Sciences Academy wakes up to find himself transmigrated to the early Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty.

He doesn't become a lord or a general, or even a rebellious commoner. Instead, he becomes a chubby, fair-skinned baby boy who bursts out of the Five-Colored Earth altar during the Hongwu Emperor's ceremony to worship Heaven!

From the start, the north is in the grip of a terrible drought, with the land parched for thousands of miles. Old Zhu is desperately kowtowing and praying to Heaven.

Zhu Rui rubs his eyes and lets out a baby burp. Instantly, life-giving rain pours over Yingtian Prefecture, which has been suffering from drought for more than half a year!

Zhu Yuanzhang exclaims with delight: "This is a heavenly blessing for the Ming! The divine child who will protect our nation!"

Empress Ma gazes at him fondly: "Heaven has never raised a child. This one counts as my legitimate son!"

From then on, the Ming imperial palace changes completely. This tiny toddler becomes the Ming Dynasty's ultimate buff.

Crown Prince Zhu Biao stops staying up late and hugs his little brother close: "With my little brother in my arms, all my illnesses disappear!"

Prince of Yan Zhu Di stops plotting military campaigns. Now he fights with his own brother for the honor of letting their little brother ride on his back.

Zhu Rui only wants to lie flat and live as a national treasure, but somehow he molds a drought-resistant sweet potato while playing in the mud and uncovers a high-yield iron mine just by drawing a circle.

Old Zhu laughs: "Every time Rui Bao moves a hand, the Ming's national strength multiplies tenfold!"

The court officials all kneel and shout: "We beg the auspicious divine child to eat one more bowl of rice!"

Zhu Rui spreads his hands helplessly: I really just have shaky hands. Please stop shouting long live!
