Return to the Ming Dynasty and Become Emperor

The fourth year of the Wanli reign!

Zhu Yijun becomes the newly crowned Wanli Emperor at just fourteen years old.

He thought he’d be able to seize all the power and do whatever he pleased.

But who could have guessed... Feng Bao holds sway at court, Grand Secretary Zhang Juzheng is bent on reform, Japanese pirates ravage the coast, and the Mongols threaten the border! On top of that, his own mother, the Empress Dowager, makes him kneel at the slightest provocation!

Zhu Yijun: "Do you really think I’m just a child?"

First, he’ll make an example of Feng Bao. Then he’ll back Zhang Juzheng’s reforms. Reclaiming military authority and taking back imperial power isn’t actually... that hard.

I, Zhu Yijun, will become a great Ming emperor! A great emperor who’s a shameless bully, that is!
