Great Ming: Zhu Yuanzhang Heard My Inner Thoughts

My name is Zhu Chen. I transmigrated and became Zhu Yuanzhang's precious eldest grandson.

I thought I could coast on my top-tier status, lounge around, and live the carefree life of a spoiled young noble.

But I discovered that my grandfather, the murderous emperor, seems to be able to hear my thoughts!

I grumbled to myself, [Hu Weiyong is doomed sooner or later], and the very next day, Hu Weiyong's entire family was wiped out.

I muttered to myself, [My fourth uncle, Zhu Di, doesn't look like a good person], and the next day, Zhu Di knelt outside the Fengtian Hall, crying as he claimed to be a loyal subject.

I mused, [If only we could bring beauties from the Western Regions into the palace... No, I mean, open up the Silk Road], and a few days later, a delegation from the Western Regions arrived in Nanjing with tribute and dancers.

Help! I really just want to be useless!

Zhu Yuanzhang: “Grandson, I heard everything! Whatever you want, your imperial grandfather will get it for you! Whoever you want dead, I'll have them cut down!”

Zhu Chen: “Please stop listening! My head is full of treasonous thoughts!”

[Sigh, being emperor sounds exhausting. It'd be better to set up a constitutional monarchy and let the cabinet fight over everything while I serve as a figurehead...]

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up: “A constitutional monarchy? A cabinet? Grandson, tell me more!”

Zhu Chen: ...It's over. I'm going to break the Ming Dynasty.
