The Three-Time Grand Chancellor: Shang Lu

As the fortunes of the Ming Dynasty rise and fall, the Star of Literature answers Heaven's mandate and is reborn as Shang Lu, a poor scholar from Chun'an, Zhejiang. Descending to the mortal world with a gift for learning and the mission to “save the fortunes of learning and uphold the realm,” he shines in the imperial examinations. His brush seems to shimmer with starlight as he takes first place in the provincial, metropolitan, and palace examinations, becoming the only prodigy in nearly three hundred years of the Ming Dynasty to achieve top honors in all three. The radiance of the Star of Literature pierces the court's gloom. This is more than the rags-to-riches legend of a poor scholar. It is an epic where celestial destiny intertwines with the fate of a nation. See how Shang Lu uses the wisdom of the Star of Literature to overcome the calamities of the Star of Ruin, and protects the Ming Dynasty's cultural legacy with his unyielding integrity, writing an immortal chapter as “a worthy chancellor of his age” amid the torrents of history!
