Li Xiao, a modern barbecue stall owner, accidentally traveled to the fictional dynasty "Dasheng" and set up a roadside stall in the slums with a pack of chili powder and cumin. However, he accidentally got involved in a royal conspiracy, a dispute between rivers and lakes, and a secret war between time travellers.
From "charcoal fire" to "taste doomsday", he gradually discovered that his barbecue skills could actually rewrite history - chili peppers are the key to detoxification, grills are the anchor connecting the past and the present, and night market fireworks are the last weapon to resist the manipulation of human taste by the future technology company "Delicious Group".
When the true identity of the Ninth Prince is revealed, and when the nanocontainer in Su Wan's body awakens, Li Xiao must make a choice between "returning to modern times" and "saving ancient times" - because the real history is hidden in the temperature of every skewer of barbecue.
