Dream of the Red Chamber: I Become a Sage Through Poetry

Yan Huan, an elite modern scholar of classical Chinese culture, accidentally transmigrates into the Dream of the Red Chamber as Jia Huan, a bullied son born to a concubine.

In his previous life, he was a brilliant talent. In this one, he is as insignificant as an ant. His mother, Concubine Zhao, is foolish and shortsighted; his father, Jia Zheng, sees him as a disgrace; his stepmother, Lady Wang, would be happy if he vanished that very day. His elder brother Baoyu is heaven’s favorite, making him look all the more contemptible.

In this gilded cage, beautiful on the outside and rotten within, he seems destined to be crushed and become a casualty of the age.

But when the Original Poetry System awakens, everything is about to change!

With poetry as his sword, he dazzles all around him and makes a name for himself in the capital, gradually tipping the scales of power.

With modern financial knowledge as his spear, he secretly establishes banks and manipulates salt licenses, quietly building his own business empire while eating away at the foundations of the Xue and Wang families.

Watch as a lowly son of a concubine defies fate in this cruel world and embraces a brighter future!
