Great Ming: Sentenced to Death from the Start, Old Zhu Begged Me to Acknowledge My Ancestry

From the start, Lin Ye transmigrates into the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty and becomes a condemned prisoner about to be slowly sliced to death on the execution ground.

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang presiding over the execution from the city tower, Lin Ye awakens the [Causality Editor] and decides to make a truly audacious move!

He edits the mastermind behind the faked death and escape into the Ming Dynasty’s most beloved figure, Empress Ma!

To complete the final link in the chain, Lin Ye loudly berates Zhu Yuanzhang at the execution ground, exposing the Ming Dynasty’s institutions down to their bare bones.

Just as Old Zhu flies into a rage and prepares to have him cut into a thousand pieces, Empress Ma’s final letter is unearthed, and the identity of Zhu Xiongying, the emperor’s eldest grandson, is exposed!

That night, the entire court trembles in fear, because the condemned prisoner who should have been skinned alive and stuffed with grass is respectfully escorted to the dragon throne by the Hongwu Emperor himself.

“Grandson, is there anyone in this court you don’t like the look of?”

Looking down at the corrupt officials and nobles who had once sentenced him to death, Lin Ye sneers.

“Grandpa, I think these civil and military officials are rotten to the core. Why not cut them all down?”

Old Zhu grins. “You got it, Grandson. I’ll go get the knife!”

From then on, the Ming Dynasty has an imperial grandson even more ruthless than Old Zhu, one who sweeps across the world and builds a Ming empire on which the sun never sets!
