"The Blind Eye of the Poet" tells the story of the rise of folk poetry rankings twenty years after the imperial examination was canceled for poetry. The mysterious "Shikui" has been undefeated for ten years. The new emperor Zhao Mingchen investigates incognito and is shocked to find that Shikui is a blind old man who never forgets his words. The blind old man asserted that "only blind people can see true poetry", and a confrontation between poetry and governance began. The emperor wanted to revive poetry, but the old man insisted on the true heart of poetry. The poetry competition by the Qinhuai River will shake the future of the dynasty's cultural heritage.
