In 2025, military history researcher Ji Wantang collapses from exhaustion while organizing research on the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China. When she wakes, she discovers she has been reborn in Beijing on the day the city falls in 1900, in the body of a sixteen-year-old merchant's daughter. After a series of upheavals, a new world emerges...
New to this chaotic age, Ji Wantang witnesses the invading forces' atrocities of burning, killing, and looting. While helping the wounded, she triggers the “Save the Nation Sign-in System.” Her first sign-in earns her a first-aid kit and basic medical knowledge.
She risks her life to save Chu Yuanheng, a young officer gravely wounded in battle, and treats him with supplies from the sign-in. The two begin to trust each other as they flee.
