Great Ming: Zhu Di Fakes His Death, and I Choose to Ascend the Throne

In the fourteenth year of Yongle, Zhu Gaosui, whose soul had transmigrated since childhood, is told that his father has died ahead of schedule! The eldest brother's line is short-lived, and the second brother is nothing but a brute! If the empire falls into their hands, the Ming Dynasty's vigorous rise, like the morning sun, will surely come to an abrupt halt. There's no choice. I'll just have to inherit the throne myself. But no one expected that the Yongle Emperor had faked his death. He was only doing this to raise his sons like poisonous insects and select an outstanding successor. “Oh! So the third son wins in the end! Very well, perhaps he can preserve my great achievements!” “What? The third son pacified all the Mongol tribes?” “What? He wiped out the Japanese pirates and destroyed their nation?” “Wait, the nations of the Southern Seas have come to pay tribute, and this boy still isn't satisfied? He actually led an army on a western expedition all the way to the Danube?” Far away in the Forbidden City in Beijing, Zhu Di was stunned. This son of mine is much better than I am!
