Living in an imaginary dynasty with solidified classes, the male boss Gu Chen, who is the lowest servant, unexpectedly awakens the talent of cultivating "awe-inspiring righteousness" in a life-and-death crisis. He is not reborn or time traveled, but he has insights and strategies far ahead of his time (derived from the fusion of modern knowledge). With the attitude of "pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger", he escaped from the wealthy family, entered the official school, and launched a fierce "resource competition" and "intelligence crushing" with the decadent gentry class that controlled knowledge resources. With the core of "studying things to gain knowledge", Gu Chen integrated modern mathematics, physics, and economics knowledge into the Confucian system, creating a new school of thought and triggering a subversive "reform era" wave. He and the heroine Su Qingwei, who is a female doctor of the Imperial College, knew each other and fell in love. They joined forces and worked step by step in the court and the rivers and lakes. They finally smashed the behind-the-scenes group headed by the hypocritical Confucian and completely "crushed" the decadent old world. With the power of one person, he became the sage of Confucianism and Taoism and created eternal peace.
