Yan Xiuyuan, a university student from the 21st century, dies suddenly after staying up all night gaming. When he opens his eyes, he has transmigrated into the body of the crown prince of the fictional Jin Kingdom!
Before he can adjust to his new identity, the palace is awash in blood. His uncle, Prince Ning Yan Zhengyang, suddenly rebels, and his father is killed on the spot!
At the critical moment, a young eunuch who serves at his side risks his life to help him escape the palace. As Yan Xiuyuan teeters on the brink of death, the Transmigration System activates by chance.
Using the System to evade one pursuit after another, Yan Xiuyuan flees in dire straits and eventually settles in Suzhou in the northwest, secretly building up his strength while waiting for a chance to turn the tables.
By chance, he ventures deep into the northern grasslands. There, he unexpectedly falls in love with the princess of the Heidi Kingdom and wins the kingdom’s full support with his sincerity.
By then, rebellions have erupted throughout Jin, plunging the realm into chaos. With Suzhou’s troops and weapons at his command and powerful allies from the grasslands at his back, Yan Xiuyuan resolutely marches south!
From a crown prince in exile to a contender for the throne, this time he will crush the rebels, kill his enemy Yan Zhengyang with his own hands, and take back the throne that is rightfully his!
