Eating soft food hard is also a skill!
Chen Yuan, a doctor of history, accidentally traveled to Peiping in 1912 and became Shen Moyan, a boy from a poor family. In this troubled world dominated by warlords and surrounded by crises, he chose a unique way to survive - eating soft rice!
When he married into a wealthy family, he took care of every step. Faced with his alcoholic father and the assassins of the Revolutionary Party who came to kill him, Shen Moyan quickly became wise and took the initiative to marry into the home of a senior official in Beiyang, and entered into a contract marriage with Song Qingyun, the most beautiful woman in Peiping, known as the "Black Widow". On the wedding night, there were no flowers and candles in the wedding room, only three cold chapters of the agreement.
He eats hard food and enjoys the troubled times. With the help of modern knowledge to reduce dimensionality, he shocked everyone at the literati tea party, used economics to resolve the crisis in the business world, and used scientific knowledge to break feudal superstition. From a scorned son-in-law to a famous figure in Peiping, Shen Moyan's road to soft rice is getting wider and wider.
On the battlefield of love, he has both sides. The cold and noble wife Song Qingyun seems to be as cold as ice, but she hides tenderness; the hot-blooded and determined revolutionary heroine Su Nianxue is contrary to his position, but she has a secret love. On the balance between emotion and reason, how should he choose?
The situation changed suddenly, and he broke through and stood up. The assassination of Yuan Shikai broke out, and all clues pointed to Su Nianxue. In order to protect his sweetheart, Shen Moyan forged evidence overnight to divert trouble eastward. During the inquiry at the Presidential Palace, he talked eloquently and insisted on steering the direction of the investigation. When he finally got rid of his status as a son-in-law and gained a place in the world, the real struggle for hegemony in troubled times had just begun...
