On the first day of May in the fifteenth year of Hongwu, the eight-year-old emperor's grandson Zhu Xiongying died suddenly, and the modern man Zhu Ying traveled through his body, and a different Ming Dynasty unfolded.

When he woke up, he found that he had traveled through time and became Zhu Gaochi, the eldest son of Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty. In the winter month of 1399 AD, Emperor Jianwen sent Li Jinglong to lead an army of 500,000 to besiege the city of Beiping. Zhu Di went out to borrow troops, leaving only more than 10,000 old and weak soldiers in the city. Looking at the army outside the city, Zhu Gaochi was fearless and resourceful in the face of danger. He and Zhu Di's coalition forces attacked Li Jinglong's tribe, causing it to be defeated and making Beiping City a solid rear for Zhu Di. During the defense of Peking, due to Zhu Gaochi's outstanding performance, he won the praise of Zhu Di and the support of his ministers, thus laying a solid foundation for the subsequent journey to become prince. Let's take a look at how Zhu Gaochi ascended the throne from the prince to the throne step by step, and what conspiracies and setbacks there were...

Ming Dynasty, Hongwu period, 1388 AD. Modern man Lan Yu traveled through time and became Ming Dynasty General Lan Yu. Knowing that the real Lan Yu could only live for a few years, he would try his best to rewrite his own destiny. As a result, he cleared the court of the Hou Yuan Dynasty in Yuerhai, gained the favor of the Princess of the Hou Yuan Dynasty, and was commended by the emperor and named Duke of Liang. In Shu, he suppressed the rebellion and rescued Prince Zhu Biao. In the battle of wits and courage with the King of Yan Zhu Di, he frequently used strange moves to completely suppress the arrogance of the King of Yan Zhu Di. Unknowingly, he actually changed the direction of history as he expected.

Once he traveled through time, Ling Jian became the Emperor of Heaven. But to the east there was Korea who was capricious, to the south there was Annan waiting for opportunities to raid the border, to the north there were remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty who repeatedly invaded the border, and on the southeast coast there were Japanese pirates who burned, killed and looted. Within the Ming Dynasty, King Yan was busy sharpening his sword... And the White Lotus Sect was ready to make a move... All this gave Ling Jian a headache.

At the end of Tianqi (1627), when Zhu Yuanzhang woke up again, he found that his soul had passed through Zhu Youjian's body. He saw that the Ming Dynasty, where the people once lived and worked in peace and contentment and were prosperous, was now being harmed by his descendants, causing the people's livelihood to wither, starvation and death everywhere, and wars rising everywhere. However, the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty were still nepotistic and corrupt. They still lived and drank, sang and danced everywhere, and never paid attention to the life and death of the people. Military generals also followed suit, deducting military pay and turning Ming soldiers into their own private soldiers. The eunuchs were also eliminating dissidents, cultivating their own power throughout the Ming Dynasty, and fighting to the death with officials in both the government and the opposition. Some officials did not know that there was an emperor, but they only knew that he was nine thousand years old. The Jianzhou Jurchens entered the Ming Dynasty as if they were in an uninhabited land, killing and plundering the people of the Ming Dynasty, while the generals stayed behind closed doors and watched helplessly as the people of the Ming Dynasty were robbed by them. There are Japanese pirates attacking the coast again, and they want to take advantage of the opportunity to get a piece of the pie. Nanyang is controlled by Western powers, and they are watching the Ming Dynasty eagerly. Amid internal and external troubles, see how Zhu Yuanzhang changed his destiny against the will of heaven and made Ming Dynasty the overlord of the world, standing proudly in the east of the world?
