Transported to the Hongwu era, he starts with both parents dead, a younger sister, and a house. He gets connected with the future Yongle Emperor and starts a business, waiting for the Jingnan Campaign to end so he can become a new member of the nobility!
[Ding]
[Age 18: This year, not only do you inherit the estate your adoptive parents left behind, but your adoptive father also finds you a fine match and paves the way for your future. As a transmigrator, you’re grinning from ear to ear.]
[Age 24: This year, Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang dies, and Zhu Yunwen officially takes the throne, naming the reign Jianwen. You meet Xu Miaojin and pledge yourselves to each other. But because you are already engaged, you have no choice but to marry Huang Yueyue, the daughter of Huang Yue, and let Xu Miaojin down. The following year, Huang Yue passes the imperial examination, ranking thirty-third in the second class, and enters the service of the Jianwen Emperor.]
[Age 28: The Jianwen forces are defeated, and Zhu Di takes the throne, naming the reign Yongle. After Zhu Di’s accession, Huang Yue refuses to open his doors. Zhu Di summons him to serve as a Supervising Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, but Huang Yue jumps into a river on the way and drowns. Zhu Di is furious and has his family imprisoned in the imperial jail. You want to turn things around, but it’s already too late.]
[Age 30: During your two years in the imperial jail, your loved ones die one after another, and you contract a serious illness. Your legendary life after transmigrating into the Ming Dynasty ends before it even begins!]
