The Ming Dynasty: Transmigrating to Zhu Yunwen's era, I start by asking for exile!

Chapter 1 The 25th year of Hongwu's reign: The perfect time to flee

"The second grandson fainted from crying."

The eunuch's voice was very soft, but Zhu Yunwen felt a surge of irritation. "What a lunatic!"

Time travel happens every year, this year it's Zhu Yunteng's turn.

Zhu Yunteng's father was not interested in history; he only thought about his son's future success.

As a result, Zhu Yunteng time-traveled and became Zhu Yunwen.

A name with a homonym, a life of misfortune.

There were many princes in the Ming Dynasty, but if you ask who was the most unlucky, it would definitely be Zhu Biao's three sons.

Traveling back to the Ming Dynasty is bad enough, but the timing is also wrong.

Empress Ma is alive, and Old Zhu is our sister, our Biao'er, our good eldest grandson and his family.

If you traveled back to this time, life would be unparalleled.

But if one could travel back to the third day of the eighth month of the twenty-fifth year of the Hongwu reign, that would be a completely different story.

In May of the fifteenth year of the Hongwu reign, Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest grandson passed away.

In August of the fifteenth year of the Hongwu reign, Zhu Yuanzhang's sister passed away.

On the 25th day of the fourth month of the 25th year of the Hongwu reign, Zhu Biao, the eldest son of Emperor Hongwu, passed away.

In Old Zhu's heart, he was the only one left of his loving family.

On the first day of the eighth lunar month, Zhu Biao was buried in Xiaoling Mausoleum.

Just then, Zhu Yunteng transmigrated and became Zhu Yunwen, the third son of Zhu Biao.

Zhu Yunwen caused trouble and was thoroughly defeated by his beloved uncle, Prince Yan, Zhu Di. Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yunxuan, and Zhu Yunxi also suffered misfortune as a result.

The crown prince had just passed away, and Emperor Zhu was still grieving.

However, the successor has already been determined, and that is Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Yunwen is putting on an increasingly energetic performance, and he often cries until he faints after Zhu Biao's death.

Even after he's been laid to rest, he's still like this; he's fainted again.

Zhu Yunwen was truly intelligent and extremely filial.

I've been taking care of Zhu Biao ever since he fell ill, and I've lost a lot of weight.

Old Zhu was truly delighted by this filial piety.

Zhu Yunwen remembered the time: September of the 25th year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Yunwen became the Crown Prince.

Zhu Yuanzhang himself formulated the "Imperial Ancestral Instructions and Official System," which clearly stipulated that once a crown prince was appointed, the crown prince's eldest son could be named the imperial grandson.

Even with the eldest son inheriting the throne, Old Zhu was still worried that the policy wouldn't be fully implemented, so he even had to make arrangements for his grandsons.

However, Zhu Xiong Ying was not the Crown Prince; he died before being granted the title of Crown Prince.

There were only two imperial grandsons in the entire Ming Dynasty: Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Zhanji.

In one month, Zhu Yunwen will become that person.

Strong people have a very strong sense of conviction, and it was destined that Zhu Yunwen would become the Jianwen Emperor.

Since that's the case, then we need to save ourselves.

There is a system named Zhu Yunwen, but his name is very ordinary: Half an Acre Pond.

When I have nothing to do, I'll take a fishing rod and see what I catch.

Zhu Yunwen didn't sleep all night and caught three things.

A spoon with a diameter of half a meter and a handle two meters long—even weapons rarely have such an exaggerated size.

A set of kitchen utensils, both retro and modern.

Zhu Yunwen still hasn't figured out what energy this thing uses.

A cup, a simple water cup.

The catch rate is worse than that of a fisherman!

However, there are also advantages. Now it all looks like it's related to food and drink, which is very much in line with the rule of law in the Ming Dynasty.

Old Zhu's ancestral teaching was that the prince should only learn to enjoy life.

Emperor Chongzhen genuinely wanted to accomplish something after ascending the throne, but he made more and more mistakes. It wasn't that Chongzhen was stupid; it was that everything he learned was for enjoyment.

To ensure the eldest son's succession, the prince's studies deliberately omitted topics such as governing the country.

When Chongzhen ascended the throne, it was as if he had to start learning all over again.

Adults' knowledge systems are almost fixed, and given the historical context, Chongzhen was essentially groping in the dark.

Zhu Yunwen's studies were similar.

"No, we have to run for our lives."

"I need to think of a way to anger my grandfather so that he will banish me to the border."

"The closer to the border, the better. What should we do?"

Zhu Yunwen muttered to himself as he began to think.

Once I get to the border, I can put my skills to good use. At worst, I can take my older sister and run away together.

The world is so big, there's nowhere you can't find a place to be.

Even if Zhu Di was powerful, could he possibly capture people all over the world?

I am now the Prince of Guangze, and my fief is located in Zhangzhou, under the jurisdiction of the Fujian Provincial Administration Commission.

However, it is impossible for me to go and take up my fief.

Once Zhu Yunwen ascends the throne, his position as a Prince of the Second Rank will be elevated to that of a Prince of the First Rank, and he will generally be assigned to an inland location.

There's no way to get around it in mainland China; you have to go to the border.

There's only one way: offend Old Zhu!

Old Zhu was a ruthless man, but he was incredibly forgiving towards his descendants.

Do something that will annoy Old Zhu, and then volunteer to go to the border.

In this way, their lives were saved.

"Escape...escape for your life?"

The eunuchs serving Zhu Yunwen were terrified. Why were they suddenly running for their lives?

The crown prince has just passed away, and the whole country is in mourning.

September should be a good time of year, but the entire Yingtian Prefecture felt like it was in an ice cellar.

Businesses continued, but everyone spoke in hushed tones.

When building the city wall, no one dares to shout anymore.

At this critical juncture, everyone was filled with fear. When the Third Prince suddenly shouted that they should flee for their lives, the eunuch was truly frightened.

"Uh, it's not about running for your life, it's about enjoying yourself."

"Du Tong, are there any opera troupes performing in Yingtian Prefecture right now?"

A theatrical troupe?

Du Tong shook his head frantically. Who in Yingtian Prefecture would dare to put on an opera now? That would be courting death.

"Oh, I was thinking of going to the theater to relax."

"It has been more than three months since my father passed away in April, and the whole of Yingtian Prefecture is too oppressive."

"Forget it, I won't go if there are no opera performances."

"What about the other entertainment venues? Surely they're all open?"

"I was thinking of going fishing on the Qinhuai River today and making fish soup for dinner."

"It seems like I can't do it now, so I'll just have to stay at home."

"My second brother fainted from crying. I imagine many people went to visit our father's grave."

"There are too many people, so I won't go."

I didn't sleep well last night, so I'm a little sleepy now, and I can barely keep my eyes open.

"I'm going to take a nap first. You can go now."

Du Tong's back was soaked with cold sweat. The Third Prince was not usually a person who spoke without restraint. What was wrong with him today?

The second grandson fainted from crying, upon hearing that His Majesty had specifically praised him in front of the court officials.

The message came from me, and the Third Prince was only thinking about going out to play.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard is everywhere. These words of the Third Prince will reach His Majesty's ears. He's doomed!

Du Tong felt despair.

The third prince will not die, but I will definitely die.

Zhu Yunwen got up to go to sleep, while Du Tong plopped down on the ground in a daze, as did the maid.

The events that occurred at the residence of Prince Zhu Yunwen of Guangze reached Jiang Huan's desk in just half an hour.

Jiang Huan stared blankly at the documents.

As the second commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, replacing Mao Xiang, Jiang Huan was even more cautious in his actions.

Mao Xiang's fate serves as a model, making it impossible not to take it seriously.

Jiang Huan only saw a few words in this document: "He doesn't understand the big picture and is courting death!"

The crown prince has just died, and as his son, instead of grieving and observing mourning, he is thinking about enjoying himself. Such a thing is tantamount to courting death anywhere.

After reading it for half an hour, Jiang Huan sighed and went to the palace to present the document.

Zhu Yunwen slept very comfortably and didn't even have a dream.

When I woke up, it was almost mealtime.

However, instead of receiving a meal, they encountered Jiang Huan, the King of Hell whom no one in Yingtian Prefecture wanted to see.

"Your subject Jiang Huan greets the Third Prince."

"Your Majesty has ordered me to invite the Third Prince to the palace."

The Embroidered Uniform Guard is really useful!

The existence of the Embroidered Uniform Guard was extremely dangerous for officials, but the common people still liked it.

After all, the fact that these people can keep officials in check is good news for the people.

"good.

"But I haven't eaten yet, let me finish eating first."

"I had someone stew a chicken before I went to bed, and it's cooked to perfection now."

"If we wait until we see Grandpa Emperor to eat it, the taste will be worse."
