When Lin Yue, a graduate student in the Department of Modern History, was electrocuted in the Forbidden City, he opened his eyes again and became the 16-year-old puppet new emperor of the Dajing Dynasty, Zhao Heng. Powerful ministers control the government, the treasury is empty, and the borders are watching with eager eyes. With a wealth of modern knowledge, he works step by step in the crisis-ridden Forbidden City.
From using "amnesia" to hide his identity, to showing his knowledge of water conservancy; from secretly cultivating confidants such as Shen Ce and Su Mingzhe, to launching a thrilling power game with powerful ministers Li Sinian and the Queen Mother; from promoting salt and iron reform and dividing farmers into acres, to setting up firearms camps to defend against foreign enemies, and opening up sea trade to revitalize the economy... He transformed in the whirlpool of power and intrigue, using modern wisdom to inject new opportunities into the decaying dynasty.
When prosperity replaced poverty, when stability replaced turmoil, standing high in the palace, he had already transformed from a fearful traveler seeking survival to an emperor who truly shouldered the well-being of all people. This is not only a counterattack story, but also a journey about responsibility and growth. If you are moved by your ideals and responsibilities, you may wish to share this passion and emotion with more fellow travelers.
