A modern master’s graduate in journalism transmigrates and is reborn as Peng Wan, a lowborn son-in-law in ancient times. With his forward-looking understanding of communication and his talent for poetry and prose, he rises quickly through the court. But his reformist ideas threaten the interests of the powerful. Repeatedly framed by influential ministers and branded a traitor for his writings, he is plunged into a deadly crisis.
Caught between political struggles at court and poetry gatherings before the emperor, Peng Wan must find a way out and outwit powerful ministers, while struggling to choose between the emotional bonds he shares with Su Qingyue, Liu Ruyan, and Zhao Lingxi. He remains true to his principles of governing with reason and compassion, refusing to compromise for power. In the end, he topples the corrupt ministers at court, but sees through the decay and darkness of the feudal imperial system.
Disillusioned with court power struggles, Peng Wan rejects the lure of high office and heads to Jiangnan, where he establishes the Chongwen Academy and a merchants’ association to spread new ideas of equality and republicanism. He is determined to enlighten the people and save a world in turmoil. But the eunuch faction led by Wei Zhongxian holds power and sees these new ideas as a threat. On New Year’s Eve, they brazenly send troops to slaughter everyone at the academy. In a single night, all his efforts are destroyed. Su Qingyue is gravely wounded, Liu Ruyan loses her family, and Zhao Lingxi is forced to sever ties with him. With the surviving students, Peng Wan flees south in disarray and retreats to the desperate frontier of Miaojiang.
At this moment of crisis, A Yiduo, princess of Miaojiang, is moved by Peng Wan’s vision of a world of great unity and offers her help. Reborn from despair, Peng Wan abandons empty talk of saving the country and focuses on practical measures: training troops and expanding education, with scholars running newspapers to enlighten the people and artisans developing firearms.
Once his power has grown, Peng Wan forms a revolutionary army and launches a northern expedition. He wins repeated victories by winning hearts and minds through public opinion and taking cities with ingenious stratagems. In the decisive battle for the capital, Liu Ruyan sacrifices herself to protect him. Grieving and enraged, Peng Wan storms the city, destroys Wei Zhongxian’s eunuch faction, and brings the corrupt policies of the troubled era to an end.
