This is a world where poetry can cut mountains and rivers and articles can determine the fate of a country.
He has cultivated the ninth level of Confucianism and used poetry as his sword. A scholar's speech becomes a chapter, a scholar's literary palace controls the world, a great scholar seals the city with one word, and a saint's poetry becomes eternal.
Gu Qingfeng, a criminal from a poor family, spent the rest of his life on the execution ground.
He saw with his own eyes that his father was punished by "ritual and legal bells" for his song "Snow Country Ballad", which shattered the literary palace and killed everyone in his family. During his exile, while wearing the "shackles of forbidden writing", he unconsciously recited a poem that did not belong to this era in front of the remaining monument at the border:
"The bright moon of the Qin Dynasty and the pass of the Han Dynasty——"
The moment the poem was completed, the soul of the heavenly poet broke the monument and recognized its master, and the shackles shattered.
Only then did he realize that he had the "Exquisite Heart of Poetry" - the ability to see through the essence of thousands of poems and awaken the lost soul of poetry.
But it's also a curse.
The Poetry Demon Cult hunts geniuses to extract the soul of poetry, aristocratic families monopolize the inheritance of literature, factions quarrel in the court, and poems rain down from the Three Kingdoms border war. However, the poetic soul in Gu Qingfeng all comes from a civilization that has been erased by history - "China".
In order to survive, he entered Bailu Academy anonymously.
During the day, he was a "fengqing" student from a poor family. At night, he misappropriated the poems of Li Bai, Du Fu and Su Shi, triggering the vision of "the poems become weeping ghosts and gods".
On the debate stage, he shook up the fate of the Qin Dynasty with his "On the Passage of Qin"; in the academy competition, he wrote "Come into the Wine" to defeat the military battle array; deep in the secret realm, he completed "No one in life has died since ancient times, leaving his loyalty to illuminate history", which resonated with the holy monument, but was coveted by the world.
