1. World view construction
1. Dynasty selection
- Referring to the end of the Ming Dynasty (Chongzhen period) or the end of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms (before the reform of Shizong in the Later Zhou Dynasty), it has both a sense of historical depth and room for reform.
- Set key conflicts: land annexation is out of control, foreign tribes at the border are looking covetously, and noble clans control the imperial examination.
2. Opportunity to travel through time
- Adopting the dual setting of "dream prediction + physical time travel": after the protagonist touches the ancient sword at the archaeological site, he awakens the memory of his past life (the scene of the last emperor's death), and then travels to the prince of the same name in parallel time and space in a car accident.
