Gu Yan traveled through the four years of Xuanhe and became a ninth-grade painter at the Hanlin Academy of Painting. At this time, the Song Dynasty was experiencing internal and external troubles, and there were only five years left before the humiliation of Jingkang. He wanted to save his life, but who knew that his voice was clearly heard by Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty.
"Hua Shi Gang has made the people miserable. This is not Ruihe. It is clearly a sign of the country's demise!"
The next day, Zhao Ji issued an order to stop Huashi Gang and kill the treacherous ministers.
"To unite with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty is to seek the skin of a tiger. Wanyan Agu fights against the tiger and stares at it. The Song Dynasty is in danger!"
In the court hall, Zhao Ji angrily criticized the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin on the spot and favored famous generals such as Zhong Shidao and Yue Fei. Gu Yan's heart collapsed: "Has the official family been taken away? Or have I become the bastard of the wishing pool?"
From then on, the painting style of the Song Dynasty changed drastically. Zhao Ji listened to Gu Yan's "spoilers" and started the industrial revolution while writing Slim Gold Body.
Many years later, the Kingdom of Jin fell and the sun never set on the Song Dynasty.
Zhao Ji abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor. He looked at Gu Yan and said with a smile, "Ai Qing, my craftsmen built that 'steam engine' in your mind, but it almost blew up the palace."
Gu Yan: "..."
