The Master Strategist: Starting as the Jiajing Emperor, I Only Want to Prolong My Reign

He transmigrates into the Ming dynasty as the overlooked Seventh Prince. From the start, he lives in a cold hut, where anyone can bully him. A System? None! A golden finger? All he has is his knowledge of history! A prequel to the struggle among nine princes? No, he’s going to stage “Nine Princes Sending Their Dad Off”! Zhu Yunwen is cutting down the vassal princes? Zhu Di is launching the Jingnan Campaign? Great. You boys go ahead and fight. He only needs to govern his own little patch of land: take in refugees, improve waterworks, train a new army, and stockpile grain. When the two sides have battered each other and are completely exhausted, he, Zhu Ping, will arrive at the gates with the overwhelming momentum of history on his side. Only then will the entire court realize that the sickly prince they never gave a second glance has become the most powerful emperor, master of all under heaven! Also known as: “I Quietly Rose to Power in the Ming Dynasty and Then Amazed Everyone” and “Father, Your Throne Is Better Off in My Hands.”
