Great Ming: Starting in Hongdu, I Use the System to Court Death

After transmigrating into Zhu Wenzheng, fresh from the defense of Hongdu, I become the unlucky member of the imperial clan who was flogged to death by his own uncle, Zhu Yuanzhang.

When I open my eyes, Chen Youliang's army of six hundred thousand has just withdrawn from outside the city, and the three thousand exhausted survivors within are on the brink of death. In Yingtian Prefecture, Old Zhu's suspicions are already taking shape.

A hopeless situation? No. As a top Wall Street trader, Zhu Wenzheng is best at pulling off a comeback against impossible odds!

Zhu Yuanzhang: You want command of the troops? You want to establish a Military Council? You even want to hide my executioner's blade?

Zhu Wenzheng: Uncle, you need a blade to conquer the realm, but a brain to rule it. Just be the emperor. Your nephew will take care of all the dirty, hard work!

At court, Li Shanchang is left speechless by his retorts, and the Huai-Xi nobles are kept firmly in line.

On the battlefield, Chen Youliang's supply routes are cut at will, and Zhang Shicheng's navy doesn't dare leave port.

From the twenty-third year of Zhizheng to the death of the Hongwu Emperor.

The Blank Seal Case, the Hu Weiyong Case, the Lan Yu Case? Sorry, with me, Zhu Wenzheng, around, these messes won't even have a chance to become cases!

In his later years, Zhu Yuanzhang gazes at a map of the Ming Empire and sighs, "Little Donkey, in the end, does this Ming realm belong to you, Zhu, or to me, Zhu?"
