Reborn as Zhu Xiongying: Zhu Yuanzhang Gets Carried from the Start

[System + grandparent-grandchild bond + no romance]

After more than ten years as emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang had never imagined that raising his eldest grandson could be even more fun than executing corrupt officials.

On the day his legitimate eldest grandson, Zhu Xiongying, fell gravely ill, dead trees blossomed outside the imperial bedchamber and birds gathered in a grand display. The imperial physicians called it an auspicious sign from heaven.

Heaven blesses the Great Ming: the imperial grandson has returned to life.

This isn't just his grandson. He's a celestial child sent by Heaven to extend the life of the Great Ming!

Zhu Shou transmigrates to the Hongwu era of the Great Ming with a Chinese Renaissance Vault.

He's not happy about having to get to work at the age of eight, but who could turn down the chance to save Zhu Biao, history's most stable crown prince? And Empress Ma, who's about to die of illness, absolutely has to be saved!

He's got potatoes, antibiotics, firearms, and even steam engines!

Wanting the Great Ming to last ten thousand years is no problem. He's got a System, too!

Much later, Zhu Yuanzhang watches the sun-and-moon banner reach the West and excitedly slaps his thigh: “What a grandson! Aren't you a bit too heaven-defying?”
