Jianwen: This Time, I’ll Beat Zhu Di to the Punch by Moving the Capital

【Historical drama + parallel dual male leads + higher-dimensional observation + hard-core political maneuvering】 In the thirty-first year of Hongwu, history student Chen Huaijin transmigrated as the Jianwen Emperor, Zhu Yunwen. Faced with Prince of Yan Zhu Di, who was about to launch the Jingnan Campaign, he abandoned the hopeless dead end of “reducing the vassal princes” and proposed a stunning national policy: move the capital to Beiping! He would relocate the capital to Zhu Di’s doorstep and use the emperor’s duty to guard the frontier to hijack the script of the Yongle Emperor. Let’s see how Zhu Di would “purge the court of evil ministers” now! At court, Zhu Yunwen plans several moves ahead, using open political maneuvering to force Zhu Di into a dilemma; In Jiangnan, Li Duo, a trusted guard he personally promoted, leads his brothers on a path of corrupt-official slaying and strange-case investigation, stepping onto the road to becoming a powerful minister. But just as they think victory is assured, they have no idea that in the shadows of history, a mechanical hummingbird is hovering overhead, coldly watching everyone in the game… “If history can truly be changed, what will it cost?” P.S. No System, no dumbed-down characters, ensemble political intrigue. A slow-burn historical drama. The court intrigue takes shape over the first few chapters, so seasoned readers can dive right in.
