The modern soul traveled through time twice, becoming Aixinjueluo Yongxuan, the eleventh son of the Qianlong Dynasty of the Qing Dynasty. During his first time travel, he relied on his talent and arrogance, and misjudged the situation of the government: he despised He Shen's corruption and broke with him, trusted Qing Liu and was plotted by Yong Yan, and was finally defeated in the battle for the throne. He witnessed the collapse of officialdom and the decline of national power after Jiaqing ascended the throne, and ended with hatred.
In the forty-fifth year of Qianlong's reign, on a snowy night, he was reborn with the memories of his previous life. This time, he restrained his sharp edge and hid under the guise of a "literary man of calligraphy and painting". He saw through the power tactics behind He Shen's greed, and used his power to build a financial and intelligence network, but secretly left behind a back-up to check and balance; he understood Ji Xiaolan and Liu Yong's way of life, and used classics as a mediator to channel the pure flow for his own use without being tied to a false reputation; he even faced his old enemy Yong Yan head-on, laying traps in every detail to undermine their "stable" persona.
From the salt introduction in the south of the Yangtze River to the military power of the Beijing camp, from the chaos of the White Lotus Sect to the sudden change of the Zen throne, he worked step by step. In the power chess game in the later years of Qianlong, he integrated the rules of the Qing Dynasty with a modern vision, and finally reversed the destiny of heaven, ascended the throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and changed the name to "Yongxi". When he is in control of the throne, he must not only clear up the accumulated abuses and stabilize the country, but also face the blood and price behind power - this is a game about redemption and reshaping, and it is also a soul's final retention of the afterglow of the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong after two lives of struggle.
