In the 224th year of the Yu Dynasty, Ye Jincheng, a young man from a poor family in the south of the Yangtze River, used a broken house as a home and old books as a companion, and embarked on the road to the imperial examination with a lonely and brave spirit.
He once copied books in the wind and snow to the point of numbness, and also gave guidance at the Golden Palace; he was a poor scholar who was bullied, and he was also a powerful prime minister. When the emperor was ignorant and the world was in turmoil, he used his intelligence and iron blood to overthrow the decadent dynasty, ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, creating a prosperous age.
In this life, he has been poor and rich, loved and hated, and has seen prosperity and bloodshed.
This is a story about counterattack, intrigue, love and fate——
From a humble family to a wealthy person, he spent his life proving:
"Destiny is made by oneself, and God will not disappoint those who are willing to do so."
Later generations commented on him and even praised him: "He rose from the dust and finally stood on the nine heavens."
