Great Ming: I Rejected Xu Miaoyun and Became a God of War

After transmigrating to the Ming dynasty, he becomes Zhu Xiongxiao, the most pampered eldest legitimate grandson of the Zhu family!

At his side are Empress Ma, a fiercely protective force of nature; his father, Crown Prince Zhu Biao, who spoils his son rotten; and the decisive Hongwu Emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang!

With the most noble and favored status in all the Ming, Gu Yuan only wants to live comfortably as a spoiled playboy.

But Old Zhu starts playing matchmaker and insists on forcing the valiant general’s daughter Xu Miaoyun on him!

With a doctorate in military strategy from the National Defense University and a thorough understanding of history, Gu Yuan boldly rejects the match right there in the palace!

His refusal not only drives Xu Da mad and sets the entire court abuzz, but also sends Old Zhu chasing him through the palace with a shoe in hand.

“You insolent grandson! What’s wrong with Miaoyun? You’re marrying her whether you like it or not!”

Gu Yuan immediately produces a chart titled “The Ming Dynasty’s Deadly Campaign at Sarhu”:

“Grandfather, two hundred years from now, foreign powers will rise, and more than a hundred thousand Ming soldiers will be slaughtered beyond the passes! I refuse to marry because I want to use these hands to go to the northern frontier and wipe out every threat to the Ming!”

Seeing the modern military plans, centuries ahead of their time, Old Zhu is left dumbfounded. Xu Da is frozen on the spot, and the ministers cry out that a god of war has descended from heaven!

Empress Ma shields him fiercely:

“Old Zhu, if you dare lay a finger on Xiao’er today, I’ll fight you to the death!”

Zhu Biao quietly steps in front of him too:

“Father, I think Xiao’er makes a good point. Maybe we should put the wedding on hold for now?”

Years later, Xu Miaoyun, disguised as a man and brimming with resentment, sneaks into the new army’s camp to settle the score with Gu Yuan. But when she sees the countless mighty warships and cannons, and the steel tide sweeping across the northern deserts, she falls into deep thought...
