Great Ming: I Ascended the Throne After Old Zhu Faked His Death

In the twenty-eighth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuntong, who had transmigrated ten years earlier, discovered that Zhu Yuanzhang had died ahead of schedule! To save himself from a tragic fate, Zhu Yuntong decided he might as well make a bid for the throne!

What Zhu Yuntong did not know was that Zhu Yuanzhang had only pretended to die because the heir to the throne had yet to be chosen. He wanted to test who was worthy of inheriting the Great Ming dynasty. And so...

“What? Zhu Yuntong has entered Jinling with the Five Army Battalions, the Three Thousand Battalion, and the Divine Machine Battalion!? Even the Embroidered Uniform Guard is on his side!?”

“Those puny Japanese pirates have mountains of gold and silver?”

“There are lands overseas where each acre can yield dozens of shi of grain?”

As he waited and watched, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly realized: How had his Great Ming become so powerful?

Oh, right. It was his good grandson’s Great Ming!
