Before the Great Turmoil, the Crown Prince Awakens (94 episodes)

During the Hongwu era, Crown Prince Zhu Biao fell critically ill. Both within the court and across the realm, various factions harbored their own schemes, quietly waiting for his passing. Huang Zicheng hoped to assist Zhu Yunwen in ascending the throne, Lady Lü harbored plans of her own, and Zhu Di secretly bided his time for chaos to erupt across the land. But on the brink of death, Zhu Biao unexpectedly awoke with memories of future generations, foreseeing the turmoil of the Jingnan campaign and the series of crises awaiting the Ming Dynasty. In this life, he is determined to rewrite fate: reorganizing the Eastern Palace's forces, reining in the civil officials, curbing the military nobility, and summoning Zhu Di for an audience. Facing his ambitious fourth brother, Zhu Biao asks calmly: "I am still among the living, so why the rush?"
