Lin Yuan, a graduate student in the Department of History, accidentally came into contact with ancient books and traveled to the Daqian Dynasty. As a penniless man, he relied on modern knowledge to stand out in the imperial examinations. However, he was involved in a power struggle between the prime minister and the Taiwei, and was falsely accused of cheating in the imperial examinations. Fortunately, with the help of an old man he met in prison, the truth was revealed and he was recognized by the emperor and became an official in the court.

At the critical moment, the eldest princess Libao and Su Yao's father launched an army. The truth emerged and the powerful officials fell. Lin Yuan was appointed prime minister to implement reforms, and Su Yao was appointed as general to protect the border, and together they made the dynasty prosperous. The secret of time travel has not yet been solved.
