Lin Fu, a researcher on the history of the Five Dynasties in modern times, traveled to Chenqiaoyi in the first year of Jianlong's reign because of the bronze talisman found in the burial pit of Yongchang Mausoleum - which coincided with the eve of Zhao Kuangyin's wearing of the yellow robe. He was familiar with the "sound of candle shadow and axe" and the humiliation of Jingkang. He risked his life to advise "Ding Luocheng and establish Defang as the prince", successfully rewriting the initial national destiny of the Song Dynasty.
After rising to the core of the Privy Council, Lin Fu brought modern wisdom to delve deeply into domestic affairs: he revolutionized the imperial examination with the "name-blinding method" and "double-transcription method" to break the monopoly of aristocratic families; founded "Jiaozi", established "Changpingcang", compiled "Song Xingtong", stabilized the economy, stabilized people's livelihood, and established laws; improved water transportation, iron smelting and ordnance technology, laying a solid foundation for a prosperous age. He and Su Qingmei, who is proficient in officialdom, went from investigating cases side by side to falling in love with each other. Their emotions settled in the new deal and the game, which also made Princess Yongqing, who was concerned about the battlefield, turn away with regret.
The rise of the Song Dynasty was full of hidden dangers on the border: Khitan Xiao Yanyan and Han Derang were in charge of the state affairs together, Yelv Xiezhen had great ambitions and ambitions that were difficult to realize; Li Jiqian of the Western Xia Dynasty was capricious, the Jurchen tribe quietly emerged, and the old tribes of Tubo and the Southern Tang Dynasty each had different intentions. Lin Fu strategized and sent Pan Mei to guard Yanmen and Yongqing to control Jizhou. He used the strategy of "dividing favor and prestige" to break the enemy alliance, and repeatedly made outstanding achievements in the Yanyun spy war, Yinzhou counterinsurgency, and Quanzhou trade.
From Chen Qiao's transformation to Luoshui's rejuvenation, from court debates to battlefield battles, Lin Fu led the Song Dynasty out of the reincarnation of the Five Dynasties with the spirit of "Thousands of people, I will go". When the beacon smoke gradually rises in Yanyun, the shadow of Luo Shui's sails reflects the dawn of unity. The promise he made with Su Qingmei in the prosperous age is about to be fulfilled.
