Great Ming: I Just Transmigrated, and I'm Already Convincing Zhu Di to Rebel

Zhu Di, you’re as good as dead. The Hongwu Emperor will soon issue an edict naming his grandson Zhu Yunwen Crown Prince.

Once Zhu Yunwen takes the throne, he’ll surely strip the fiefs and titles from you. You clan princes with armies at your command won’t escape death!

The nation needs a mature ruler. Only by entrusting the Ming Empire to you can it stand proudly at the pinnacle of the world.

Lie low and build your strength. When the Hongwu Emperor falls ill, lead the border troops into Nanjing to pay your respects, and make him name you Crown Prince.

“Mr. Cao is truly a Xiao He of the Han and a Fang Xuanling or Du Ruhui of the Tang, a man with the talent to govern the nation and shape the world.” The Hongwu Emperor praised Cao Shuang this way in public more than once.

With Cao Shuang’s relentless brainwashing and help, Prince of Yan Zhu Di finally dealt with the remnants of the Northern Yuan who had fled beyond the frontier and resolved to lead his troops to the capital to pay his respects. But he discovered that the Hongwu Emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang, had already prepared everything in advance.

“Fourth Son, take a look at this dragon robe. Does it fit?”
