Modern young people accidentally have their souls transmigrated and become the Jia Huan who has always been inconspicuous and despised in "A Dream of Red Mansions".
But when he opened his eyes, he saw that although the two houses of Rongning and Ning were still buzzing with bells and pans, they were not the prosperous times in the books, but the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty - the undercurrents in the court were turbulent, the strict party was gradually rising, the border troubles were endless, and the imperial examination and official career were frightening at every step.
As a concubine, he had to rely on others in the house and struggled every step of the way: Aunt Zhao cared deeply for her son, Tanchun was estranged, Wang Xifeng was shrewd and calculating, Mrs. Wang treated him coldly, Jia Zheng was harsh and unfeeling, and the huge Jia family had already been filled with gold and jade but was ruined inside.
He not only knows the fate of the people in the Red Mansion, but also understands the dangers of officialdom in the Jiajing Dynasty, and he no longer wants to be the naughty Jia Huan who is at the mercy of others in the original work.
He restrained his stubbornness early on, buried himself in the cold window, and studied hard for the imperial examinations with insights far beyond his times, in order to find a foundation for his career.
Internally, we must straighten out the warmth and coldness of the Jia family, protect the stability of the biological mother and ourselves, and quietly reverse the tragic fate of Chai, Dai, Tan, Ying, Xi and others;

Let's take a look at how Jia Huan, a concubine who traveled through time, took the imperial examination and entered an official career from a humble family.
With one hand, he changed the situation of the downfall of the Red Mansion, and with the other hand, he broke the confusion of Jiajing officialdom.
In the rise and fall of the family and the turmoil of the dynasty, find your own way to survive.
