Zhu Yunwen became the second Ming emperor in 1398 after his father, the designated heir, died six years earlier and his grandfather named him successor. He moved quickly to curb the princes - sons of the dynasty's founder - which provoked his uncle Zhu Di into open rebellion in 1399 under the pretense of clearing out corrupt officials. The Jingnan campaign ended in 1402 when Zhu Di took Nanjing and the palace burned; three bodies were found and declared to be the emperor, his wife, and their son, but rumors immediately surfaced that he'd escaped to a monastery. Zhu Di took the throne as the Yongle Emperor, struck down every reform his nephew had made, and declared the Jianwen reign illegitimate - effectively erasing it from the timeline. The era wasn't restored until 1595, nearly two hundred years later.
