Li Chen, the son of a former powerful official whose family has fallen into decline, has lived in the chaotic market and world since he was a child, and has developed his unique survival wisdom and sense of humor. Inadvertently involved in a court coup, he was forced to return to the capital and once again formed an alliance with his old friend Su Waner, his adviser Zhao Xuan, and the seemingly unruly Wang Qing'an. Facing the ruthless and ambitious Crown Prince Yan Wenyuan and the far-reaching Prime Minister Zhang Zhen, Li Chen relied on ingenious planning and on-the-spot changes to work his way up from the bottom of the world, constantly resolving crises and making comebacks in the power struggle. The story is ups and downs, humorous, sometimes tense, sometimes hilarious. In the end, in the most severe life and death decision, everyone recognizes their own position and ideals, and Li Chen also rewrites the world with his eclectic concept of "laughing away the country". The four-volume book tells the ups and downs of Li Chen's step-by-step journey to become the founder of a new order.
