Reborn to Rise: The Poor Scholar's Path to the Top

Ling Ye, a modern man with two doctorates, transmigrates to ancient times, only to be framed and killed by his own family. After his soul wanders for decades, he is reborn at the very moment his beloved princess draws her last breath, back at the start of the tragedy! This time, he coldly tears away the masks worn by his hypocritical father, venomous concubine, and ungrateful half-brother. His poetry outshines the entire court, he crushes his enemies in business, and he sweeps aside every petty rival in the imperial examinations. Yet his former fiancée, who once treated him like dirt, comes back to cling to him, while the aloof princess is consumed with jealousy. Ling Ye takes Jinran’s hand and smiles as he looks down on them all. “All who bullied and humiliated me, get down on your knees and stay there. This time, you’ll pay for every life you took!”

Reborn underdog’s comeback + face-slapping power fantasy + a princess who dotes on him alone. Modern knowledge crushes the ancient world of political intrigue!
