Great Ming: I Gain a Special Ability Every Day!

I opened my eyes and found myself as Zhu Yunton, the legitimate second son of Ming Crown Prince Zhu Biao.

I also awakened the [Daily Ability Draw System]. Purple Heaven Divine Lightning, A Dream Across a Thousand Autumns... One supernatural ability every day!

In September of Hongwu Year 25, five months after his father Zhu Biao died, Zhu Yuanzhang announced: “I hereby appoint my illegitimate son Zhu Yunwen as Crown Prince.”

The entire court fell silent. No one dared speak.

Zhu Yunton stepped forward. “Imperial Grandfather, by favoring an illegitimate son over the legitimate heir, you are unfit to rule!”

Wang Dun, Censor-in-Chief of the Censorate, leaped out and cursed him. “Rebel! You must die!”

Zhu Yunton raised a hand and pointed.

Rumble!

A purple bolt of divine lightning as thick as a barrel tore through the glazed roof of the Fengtian Hall and struck Wang Dun squarely on the crown of his head!

The fourth-rank official was reduced to ashes on the spot!

Zhu Yuanzhang was dumbfounded, Zhu Yunwen nearly wet himself, the entire court fell to its knees, and Lan Yu laughed.

From then on, the Duke of Liang's household gave him its full support, the Chang family poured all its influence into helping him, and the Huai-Xi generals defected as one.

Zhu Yunton merely smiled and silently thought, “System, draw today's ability.”

“Congratulations, Host. You have received a new ability: [A Dream Across a Thousand Autumns].”

That night, Zhu Yuanzhang had a nightmare inside the Qianqing Palace.

In his dream, Empress Ma, Zhu Biao, Chang Yuchun, Zhu Wusi... all his departed loved ones questioned him one by one: “Chongba, why did you depose the legitimate heir and appoint an illegitimate son?”

“Father, you were wrong!”

“Your Majesty, can you face the Chang family, every one of them a loyal hero?”

When Zhu Yuanzhang awoke, his dragon robe was soaked with cold sweat.

His hands trembling, he murmured to himself, “Was... was I wrong?”
