When a physics PhD is reborn in ancient times and uses calculus to divine fortunes and cement to build walls, the examiners of this imperial examination go mad!
He was a top student in both physics and engineering in the twenty-first century. Reborn as a poor scholar, he faces a threefold assault: the constraints of Confucian philosophy, factional struggles at court, and disasters both natural and man-made. He has no System to give him an edge, only a mind full of modern knowledge.
✅ He uses fluid mechanics to draft a policy essay on canal transport. The examiners are astounded, yet curse him as a peddler of “heretical nonsense.”
✅ He uses statistics to audit tax records, leaving corrupt officials with nowhere to hide, only to be condemned for “bizarre and pernicious arts.”
✅ He uses microbiology to prevent epidemics and relieve disaster, saving the people from misery, yet is accused of “undermining the foundations of the state.”
The imperial examinations are not the finish line, but his ticket into the game of power!
⚠️ To bring down his political enemies, he coldly sacrifices an honorable benefactor, trading a stain on his conscience for power.
⚠️ He allies with Su Qinghuan, the daughter of a salt merchant. Capital and knowledge collide, sparking a deadly flame, while their reforms plant the seeds of a hidden struggle to keep each other in check.
⚠️ When the northern barbarians’ cavalry attacks the passes, he personally leads three thousand soldiers armed with firearms in a desperate counterattack, ultimately setting his sights on the Dragon Throne.
“You want a wise ruler. I want an empire where reason can survive!”
A warning for readers:
⚠️ The protagonist has no saintly compassion and stops at nothing to achieve his goals. He may well be “the most rational treacherous official in history.”
⚠️ The political schemes are intricately connected, and the battle of wits is immensely satisfying. Readers who care about historical accuracy, beware, but this story is absolutely addictive.
⚠️ The open-ended finale leaves one question hanging: the southern kingdom of capital versus the isolated intellectual haven in the East Sea. Which will overturn the rational empire?
