In the first year of Jianwen, undercurrents surged in the Prince Yan's Mansion in Beiping. Eight-year-old Zhu Gaoyan should have died young, but he survived due to the time-travel of his modern soul. The game started at any time. In the bloody storm of Jingnan, he relied on his keen observation and careful thinking to skillfully influence his father, mother, concubine and three brothers, stabilize the Yan Palace, and at the same time gain insight into every move of the court.
After surviving the crisis, he had to survive in the shadow of his father Zhu Di, and he had to protect himself from the machinations of his three brothers. With a frail body, he uses his frail body to create subtle chess games and turn crises into controllable situations.
This is how a prince who is "on the hook at any time" survives in the intertwining of crisis, family affection and intrigue, and rewrites his own destiny with wisdom. Humor, harshness and bookishness coexist, making the history of the parallel Ming Dynasty overlap into a new chapter.
