Timeless and eternal, a dazzling flash of light appeared, and a man dressed

in dragon robes suddenly materialized within the palace of the Hongwu


era. This man was none other than Zhu Di, the fourth son of Zhu
Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Di looked around in bewilderment, realizing he had found himself in an
unfamiliar environment. As a man with a deep understanding of history,
Zhu Di immediately recognized this as an extraordinary opportunity to alter
the course of history.
Harboring grand ambitions, Zhu Di began plotting to overthrow the rule of
Emperor Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang. He secretly contacted ambitious officials
and generals, inciting them to join his rebellion. Leveraging his rich political
experience and military prowess, Zhu Di quickly organized a formidable
rebel army.
Under Zhu Di's strategic planning, the rebel forces rapidly seized control of
many critical cities and military strongholds. Emperor Hongwu found
himself in a precarious situation, but ultimately prevailed through his
exceptional political wisdom and military might, crushing the rebellion.
In the fierce battle, Zhu Di was severely wounded and eventually captured.
As he lay dying, he said to Emperor Hongwu, "I sought to change history,
but in the end, I was crushed by the wheels of history. Alas, human plans
are no match for the will of heaven!" With those words, Zhu Di passed
away, consumed by regret.
Thereafter, Zhu Yuanzhang further consolidated his rule, becoming the true
founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. This episode has become a topic of
keen interest for scholars, who view Zhu Di as a figure worthy of admiration
for his daring challenge against fate, even though he ultimately could not
escape the predetermined course of history.
