In modern society, the protagonist Lin Yu is a doctor of history. He is obsessed with the study of ancient history, and especially has in-depth insights into the history of the Chu Dynasty. In an accident, he traveled to the Chu Dynasty and possessed the body of a down-and-out aristocratic child of the same name. At this time, the Chu Dynasty was prosperous on the surface, but in fact there was an undercurrent. Domestic land annexation was serious, people lived in poverty, and peasant uprisings occurred from time to time. Above the court, the three forces of relatives, eunuchs, and powerful ministers competed with each other, and the emperor tried to balance all parties but was unable to do so. Beyond the border, the Xiongnu in the north were eyeing the border and often invaded the border, and the Baiyue in the south were also ready to expand their territory.
