Curator note

I was everywhere – from suppressing the feudal lords during the Jingnan Campaign, to moving the capital and revising the classics, to conquering the Mongols and going to Southeast Asia – yet no one knew I was there. Keep a low profile! Keeping a low profile is the key to success. His tortuous lifeline and the continuation of a passive fate led to his rise and counterattack. The seemingly powerless imposter reversed its passive situation and created a new landscape for the entire related environment! The turbulent struggle for the throne, the step-by-step reforms to weaken the power of the princes, the glorious moment of the Yongle Encyclopedia, the manipulation of the world by changing the capital, the pacification of the internal and external affairs, all the events, big and small, cannot erase his shadow or cover up his footprints in all the glory! The early Ming Dynasty was a period of constant turmoil. It was an era of receding instability, yet a group of heroes and ruthless figures stirred history, propelling the Ming Dynasty's rule to its first peak! In such a historical context, how did an ordinary person from modern times manage to manipulate events, intervene in such turbulent times, and achieve his own quiet brilliance?
