The Sky Screen Reveals the Fall of the Ming Dynasty

The next book, When Wu Zetian Becomes the Youngest Daughter of Liu Bang and Lü Zhi, please add it to your library

[Completed] Blurb:

Zhu Yuanzhang paved the way for his imperial grandson. With hopes that the Ming dynasty would endure for generations, he closed his eyes in peace.

When he opened them again, he discovered he had transmigrated into one of his descendants.

Before he could even celebrate his healthy, youthful body, the sky screen hanging high above began to flicker:

[Today, let's take a look at the history of the late Ming and see how the dynasty founded single-handedly by Zhu Chongba came to its end...]

Zhu Yuanzhang: ????

Seventeen-year-old Zhu Youjian had only just gone from Prince of Xin to the new ruler of the Ming Empire.

Who could have guessed that before he had even warmed the dragon throne, his soul would be forced out of his body?

“Who are you?! Get out of my body!” he shouted at the “himself” before him, his voice full of menace.

Who would have thought the other one would be even fiercer? “I am your great-grandfather, the Emperor!”

Zhu Di had only just ascended the throne and let out a sigh of relief when, in the blink of an eye, he returned to the prince's residence and found himself transmigrated into the heir of a vassal prince who was plotting a rebellion.

When he learned what had happened, he nearly spat blood: You don't even have command of your own troops, so what are you rebelling for?!

But after hearing what the sky screen said, Zhu Di immediately felt his blood awaken and rubbed his hands together eagerly:

“The young emperor can't hold on to this position. Why not let me revive the Ming instead? It'd only mean going through the Jingnan Campaign one more time... Father, Father, Father! Why is it you?! I didn't mean that! Don't pull my ears, it hurts!!!”

*More or less, a story about Zhu Yuanzhang and his son Zhu Di causing chaos together, teaching Zhu Youjian, and saving the Ming along the way. This isn't meant to be historically rigorous, so please treat it as a parallel world.

A peek at my upcoming book, please add it to your library:

Title: When Wu Zetian Becomes the Youngest Daughter of Liu Bang and Lü Zhi

In the first year of Shenlong, Wu Zhao passed away.

When she opened her eyes again, she learned her father was Liu Bang, her mother was Lü Zhi, her elder sister was Liu Le, and her twin brother was Liu Ying.

As for herself, she had become the youngest daughter in the family.

After her father Liu Bang died, her kindhearted but ineffectual elder brother Liu Ying took the throne, while her mother Lü Zhi held power.

Wu Zhao, with her memories of her past life restored: I'm very familiar with this situation!

Lü Zhi: I have a worthy successor.

Wu Zhao: My father is an emperor, my mother is an empress, and my brother is an emperor too. Is there anything more legitimate than me inheriting the throne?

*Her memories gradually return, and we watch a little Wu Zhao grow up from childhood.

*Li Zhi transmigrates along with her and appears later. He doesn't hold power, and devotes himself to being Wu Zhao's sweet little husband.

Title: Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han Livestream Wilderness Survival (a fun story about putting them through the wringer)

[Location: A deserted island, tropical rainforest, the deadly Aotai Trail

Weather: Minus forty degrees Celsius, heavy snowfall

Players: Ying Zheng, Liu Bang, Liu Che, Huo Qubing, Li Shimin...]

[Food: None. Tools: None. Shelter: None. Fire: None.]

Players, work together and do your best to survive.

The assembled emperors and famed ministers, dragged into a livestream survival game, looked at one another and said in unison: You want me to work with them?

With no choice but to accept the System's forced team assignments, they had to grit their teeth, partner up, and stab one another in the back along the way.

Venomous snakes attack at night. Liu Che elbows Liu Bang forward: Gaozu led an uprising after killing a white snake. A mere king cobra is nothing to him!

Comments: So filial, I'm dying.

Food gets handed out and Zhu Houcong is left out: Surely an ethereal Taoist doesn't need to eat?

Comments: He trained his body to be like a crane!

They're ambushed, so everyone pushes Ying Zheng forward and activates the skill [The King Carries His Sword]: Every assassination attempt misses!

Comments: Huh, why does that assassin's silhouette look a little like...?

The snowman-building and guessing game:

[Don't Look at Me, I'm Just a Sheep] [What Does This Mango Mean?] [Who Is This Short-Legged Cat?]

The partner-selection round:

For mixed-gender teams: “Wu Zhao, will you pick this Tang Taizong, a ruler skilled in both letters and arms, or this lychee who's about to cry for you?”

The System thoughtfully supplies background music: Your husband doesn't scare me~~

For ruler-and-minister teams: “Liu Che, do you want your own brother-in-law Wei Qing, or the young general Huo Qubing?”

The background music chimes in at just the right moment: Mis↓took↑the→heav↗enly home

Lü Zhi: I came late. What a lively gathering.

A fun story bringing historical figures together. Any out-of-character behavior is on me.

Theme: Stay calm in the face of adversity to turn the tide.
