Emperor Taizu of Ming, Zhu Yuanzhang, transmigrated to the Yongle era as a sweeping monk in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, mistakenly assuming the throne was still held by Zhu Yunwen's lineage. He berated the Prince of Han and mistook Zhu Zhanji for Yunwen's heir, only to be thrown into the Imperial Guard prison. Upon hearing that the current emperor moved the capital to Beijing, led five northern expeditions, and personally guarded the borders, he praised 'Yunwen' for his courage, unaware it was all done by his rebellious fourth son, Zhu Di. When father and son meet, the grievances of the Jingnan campaign resurface. Confronted with the feud between Zhu Di and Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yuanzhang reassesses family bonds and succession, wielding his imperial iron fist once more to safeguard the Ming Empire.
