In a single moment, Zhang Tianbao transmigrates to the Tianqi era of the Ming dynasty.
Luckily, he becomes the son of a local salt merchant.
A rich young master's life means eating, drinking, and having fun, or simply waiting around to die.
By a stroke of luck, Zhang Tianbao finally gets to carry out his plan to roam the jianghu.
So he takes his little sidekick Zhao Xiaoer and his donkey brother along, and resolutely sets off on a journey through the jianghu.
By a fluke, he passes the imperial examination and comes first.
From then on, the wheels of fate begin to turn.
He and the emperor, Zhu Youxiao, become sworn brothers, trading banter every day.
He also goes toe to toe with two important court officials, with neither side gaining the upper hand.
He strides through the imperial court and roams the jianghu.
He has underlings at his side and beauties for company.
Isn't this kind of carefree life just the best?
After weathering all sorts of storms, he grows tired of a life full of scheming and deceit.
All he wants is to be a carefree little landlord and live out his days happily.
But fate has other plans.
Again and again, he is dragged into the incredibly complex world of officialdom and onto battlefields ravaged by war.
