Li Jinglong advocated to let Zhu Di ascend to the throne immediately, and Zhu Di naturally couldn't let others convict himself of the crime of rebellion, so he did not agree at the beginning. Zhu Di ordered the arrest of traitorous officials such as Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai. Those who reported the arrest were rewarded, and those who covered up were guilty of the same crime as the traitorous party. According to Zhu Di's request, Ma He secretly selected twelve middle officials and one hundred and thirteen Jinyiwei, who could be on the road in three days. Zhu Di said that no matter if Zhu Yunwen was alive or dead, he didn't want to see him again.

This time the court was defeated. There were 23 officials who surrendered and more than 400 people who gave up their positions and fled. Zhu Di had long expected such an outcome, and he asked Zhu Neng to invite Xia Yuanji to come over three days later. Zhu Di showed Xia Yuanji a map of the territory of the former Yuan Dynasty. He had the idea of ​​re-operating the northern line and reforming the land. Xia Yuanji bluntly said that the imperial court cost a lot to fight, and he was unable to fight again. Zhu Di knew what he was like and knew that he would turn over the account books with himself, so he had long thought about letting Xia Yuanji go to Jiangnan to deal with the floods, and made three chapters with him.

Xia Yuanji admired Zhu Di very much and decided to play for him. The next day, Zhu Di ordered someone to bring Fang Xiaoru into the palace to draft an edict for his enthronement. When he saw the words written on the decree, he was very angry, and ordered Qitai and others and their families to be punished tomorrow. In 1402 AD, in June of the thirty-fifth year of Ming Hongwu, the Yan army broke through Nanjing City, and the Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunwen disappeared. , Lian Zining and other ministers of the Jianwen Dynasty were killed by Zhu Di, and there were many martyrs. The situation was tragic. It should be the year of Renwu.

Xu Miaojin was astonished that the family members of the traitor were charged into the Jiaofang Division. Zhu Di caught Tie Xuan, but he didn't blame him, but hoped that he could help him. However, Tie Xuan is no longer the original Tie Xuan. After Zhu Yuanzhang gave him the name, he was named Tie Dingshi. His behavior and attitude are completely different from those of Zhu Di. Tie Xuan is loyal to Emperor Xingzong (Zhu Biao), if he wants to ascend the throne, he must not keep the name of Emperor Xingzong, and loyal ministers cannot serve the second master, Tie Xuan is unwilling to go with Zhu Di. Zhu Di originally wanted to save his life and send him to Hainan, but Tie Xuan already wanted to die, and Zhu Di ordered him to be executed as he wanted. Dao Yan, who came in a hurry, was still a step too late.

Zhu Di was about to punish the second batch of disobedient officials. Xu Yungong's name was listed. Zhu Di did not intend to kill him, but decided to imprison him in the mansion and think about it behind closed doors. Xu Miaoyun had already lost a younger brother, and Zhu Di had to do this to Xu Zengshou, she broke down and cried. Zhu Xi set his era title as Yongle, and was about to take the throne the next day. Yang Zirong, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, reminded him to go to the tomb first. Only then did Zhu Xi remember, and he asked people to turn around and go to the tomb. The marked tablet cried. In July, Zhu Di succeeded the emperor in Nanjing, as Emperor Yongle of the Ming Dynasty, which opened the "prosperous era of Yongle".

120,000 soldiers and civilians worked hard in October, and under the leadership of Xia Yuanji, the flood was finally cured. Zhu Di decreed that the county where the water passed through should be exempted from the taxes of Yongle in two or three years. Zhu Di has been on the throne for more than two years. Although there is a suspicion of seeking governance too quickly, the Ming Dynasty is already prosperous by operating overseas, creating a cabinet, promoting culture and education, and eliminating vassals. Jingzhong was also building a treasure ship. Later, Xia Yuanji asked the student Yang Zirong about this, and Yang Zirong said that Zhu Di wanted to do great things. Xia Yuanji changed the subject and talked about the matter that His Majesty asked Yang Zirong to change his name. When Xia Yuanji returned to Beijing, he encountered Zhu Di who was going to discuss matters with the cabinet, but was unable to see him. Seeing Duke Rong coming to Wuying Hall, Xia Yuanji guessed that they were going to discuss the matter of Mobei.
