The Daqian Empire is peaceful on the surface, but has turbulent undercurrents. Su Buping, a young man from the grassroots, got involved in the dynastic power struggle by chance. He teamed up with the talented Liu Zhiqing, the Jin Yiwei Han Liujin and others, and grew up in the heart-wrenching plot and the test of life and death. Right Prime Minister Duan Qiming is approaching step by step, and Hua Ji, the mastermind behind the scenes, is stirring up trouble. Su Buping uses humor and wisdom to resolve dangers one after another, gradually stirring up trouble in the temple. The four volumes respectively take the first test of officialdom, the crisis of the court, the struggle in troubled times, and the retreat of the world as the main lines, showing the great dynasty of small people involved in political intrigues, intertwined love and hatred, and life choices. In the end, the gains and losses of all parties are clear. Su Buping laughs at the situation in the power arena, and finally retires, takes off his armor and returns to the field, drinking drunkenly and laughing with his companions.
