Tang Poetry Defends the Nation: I Become a Literary Sage Through Verse

Chen Yanzhou, a top modern student, transmigrates into the Great Yong dynasty after a car accident, his soul entering the body of a poor scholar. In this world, literary talent reigns supreme: writing can move heaven and earth, and the imperial exams can change one’s fate. He possesses the golden finger of Three Hundred Tang Poems, and every poem he recites resonates with golden light. His stepmother ruins his ink, he is humiliated at the county exam, and poverty leaves him with a life full of hardship. Princes scheme against him, his exam paper is switched, and attempts to drown and poison him follow one after another. Using the overwhelming advantage of his cultural knowledge, he turns the tide with Tang poetry and stuns Yangzhou by placing first in the prefectural exam. Watch this poor scholar rise to the top, defeat the powerful in literary duels, pacify the frontier with martial might, and step by step reach the summit of the Sage of Letters.
