Lin Zhao, a graduate student in modern institutional history, traveled through the Yu Dynasty in the parallel universe and became a humble concubine in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. At that time, the dynasty was troubled internally by aristocratic families, the hierarchy was solidified, foreign tribes were surrounded by external disturbances, and pirates invaded. The "Gui Yuan Shu" that ran through the national destiny concealed the truth of governing the world, and it was also bound by a life and death curse.
Carrying the institutional wisdom of the past dynasties, Lin Zhao broke through the situation by standardizing accounting and dividing people into acres, founded a business name, and collected ink industry camps. He rose to prominence amidst the war between the three sides and the struggle between princes for the heirloom. He and Ning'an, the legitimate daughter of the Ning family in Qinghe, knew each other well. One was an iron-blooded promoter of innovation, and the other was a warm-hearted protector of the people. However, when he reached the top of his power, the backlash of the curse intensified. His beloved Ning An died due to the system process he designed, which made him realize the cruelty of the rigid system.
From a forbearing concubine to a powerful regent, Lin Zhao used the blade of revolution to tear apart corruption, but in the radicalization he lost his original intention and everyone betrayed his relatives. The game between king and minister came to an end, and he retreated to the northwest to reflect: the ultimate proposition of institutional reform is never the determination of "breaking", but the temperature of "establishing". This masterpiece of historical power and strategy of the system flows through the game between ideals and costs, power and human nature, and leaves a historical echo that spans a hundred years with the regret that "it is difficult to establish when it is broken".
