Shen Lang, a good-for-nothing college student from the 21st century, dies suddenly after staying up all night gaming and finds himself in the body of Zhu Zhanqi, Prince Qi, the most good-for-nothing prince in the Ming Dynasty during the Yongle era. He only wants to coast through life, but soon discovers that the prince is dirt-poor, his fief is in dire straits, and he has been drawn into the struggle for the throne. To stay alive, he is forced to use modern knowledge to defy fate, but somehow keeps causing hilarious “modern mishaps” at solemn historical events.
