Rebirth of Zhu Yunwen: Starting from Reform

After traveling through time and becoming Zhu Yunwen, the start is on hell difficulty. Three days later, Zhu Yuanzhang died. Four years later, his fourth uncle Zhu Di launched an army to quell Jingnan. After the city was destroyed, only a fire and a missing emperor were left in the history books. The good news is that he found the secret edict left by Zhu Yuanzhang under his pillow. The bad news is that the edict reads - "If the emperor and his grandson can understand the word 'Hua Fan', this book can be opened." Become a vassal. Do not cut or kill, turn the vassal king into the guard of the border military zone, and turn the empire from internal friction to external expansion. This coincides with the idea of ​​​​the modern system in his mind. So he had three years: to build military villages, open sea trade, set up official schools, and change the underlying code of the Ming Dynasty from scratch. Give Zhu Di another three years to "think again" - in the end, he found that he had no reason to rebel. The military households contracted the fields and handed over the grain with a smile. Merchant ships from the Shishi Shipping Department set out from Quanzhou and brought back silver and world maps. In the Royal Academy, five thousand students from poor families put aside their eight-legged stereotypes and learned arithmetic, law, and military preparation. The fire in the north is still burning in the furnace, but Zhu Yunwen has already laid out the firebreak. He has three secrets in his hands: an internal spy who is holding back Zhu Di's march, Tie Xuan who is guarding Jinan, and Zheng He who is about to set foot on the ocean. When the fire really starts to burn, he will let Zhu Di see that what is under Nanjing City is not a benevolent and weak scholar, but a Ming Dynasty machine that is moving from "inward scrolling" to "outward expansion". This is not just a battle for the throne, it is a great experiment in the empire from inward expansion to outward expansion.
