Also known as:

"The Zhu Family's Shenanigans," "Save Yours, Save His, and Everyone Gets to Live," and "I Transmigrated into a Minister and I'm Scared, But I'm a Prince!"

In the Zhizheng era of the Yuan Dynasty,

Empress Ma gives birth to twin boys in Taiping Prefecture!

The Son of Heaven, Zhu Yuanzhang, is overjoyed, yet also troubled.

The child born a few minutes earlier is sickly, and it's anyone's guess whether he'll even survive to adulthood.

After weighing the pros and cons, Old Zhu makes a sweeping decision:

The healthier Zhu Biao will be the legitimate eldest son, while Zhu Xu will be considered the second son.

From then on, the Ming Dynasty has a new emperor, Yongxi Emperor Zhu Biao.

It also has the Huai Prince, the least prone to overthinking, the most fond of farming, the best at healing, the most opposed to the Japanese, and the most eager to tinker with little inventions...

But he's someone nobody dares to offend!

Many years later, as he faces the most prestigious throne in the Ming Dynasty,

the Ming Dynasty's good grandson, Zhu Xiongying, always remembers the day his father took him to visit the Huai Prince.

"Xiongying, your wonderful second uncle will bring good fortune to three generations!"

Zhu Xiongying couldn't agree more. The Huai Prince is a treasure! Everyone who gets close to him says so!
