After transmigrating, Jiang Yang studies the classics diligently, convinced he can place among the top three in the imperial examinations and bring honor to his family.
Who could have guessed that he would encounter exam fraud, with his essay stolen from him?
From destined top scholar to a name missing from the list!
Just then, the Xiongnu march south and barbarian tribes invade from every direction.
The Great Zhou Dynasty clings to a corner of the realm, on the verge of collapse.
To reclaim the title of top scholar, Jiang Yang sounds the Drum of Grievances and presents a plan to exterminate the barbarians. In one leap, he becomes the female emperor's most trusted adviser!
For the sake of revenge and his own aims, Jiang Yang doesn't care how many lives are lost.
One poisonous scheme after another comes from his lips.
All of Great Zhou trembles in fear.
The whole world begins to shake.
