Lin Feng, 32 years old, holds a PhD in history from Peking University, specializing in Ming history and the Jiajing Dynasty.
On an ordinary overtime night, when he was sorting out files at the Palace Museum, he came across a mysterious fragment of a memorial - there was a line of words written on it that should not exist: "I was watching the sky at night, and there were alien stars appearing in Ziwei Yuan, and there was a change in the main palace -"
White light flashed.
He opened his eyes and found himself kneeling on the streets of Beijing in the twentieth year of Wanli (1592). From then on, his life was torn in two: half in modern times and half in the Ming Dynasty; half a scholar and half a chess piece; half writing history and half being written by history.
He pretended to be a member of the Lin family in Yuyao and entered the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty under the name "Lin Fengming". At that time, Zhang Juzheng's reforms had been abolished for ten years. Although Yan Song and his son were defeated, the remaining poison was not cleared up; Xu Jie was old, but he was still controlling the government behind the scenes; and the legendary Zhang Juzheng, who was long dead, was still alive - hiding in the dark, waiting for the arrival of a person who was "predicted by strangers twenty years ago".
Lin Feng thought that he was a time traveler, a chess player, and a person who changed history.
But he gradually discovered that: Yan Song's memorials contained his future handwriting; Xu Jie's layout contained his unspoken words; Lu Bing gave him a letter before his death, and the date was four hundred years before his birth; and Emperor Jiajing's Qingci contained a citation format that only modern scholars understand -
He is not the only one who travels through time.
Some people came earlier, hid deeper, and planned further.
