In the Dajing Dynasty, the government was corrupt and aristocratic families dominated the government and the public, making it difficult for children from poor families to get ahead. Wen Jingran was originally a down-and-out scholar in the countryside. His family was in decline. He was scorned by his neighbors and bullied by the children of aristocratic families. He had a wealth of knowledge and unrivaled strategies, but he could only be trapped in the countryside and could not realize his great ambitions. It happened that the imperial court opened Enke, breaking the family's monopoly and giving the poor family a glimmer of hope. Wen Jingran resolutely put aside his stable life and rushed to the capital to take the exam. Along the way, he witnessed the suffering of the people, the darkness of the officialdom, and even encountered difficulties and plots from various forces. After entering the capital, he relied on his extraordinary intelligence to succeed step by step. He became a blockbuster in the imperial examination and entered the whirlpool of the court. At this time, envoys from neighboring countries came to visit, with hidden evil intentions, intending to alienate the DPRK and seek the interests of Dajing. No one in the DPRK could thwart his plan. Wen Jingran came from a humble family and dealt with emperors, aristocratic families, powerful ministers and ambitious envoys from neighboring countries. He used the power of the court to play games, break the crisis, establish the court, and reorganize the government. From a down-and-out scholar, he took power step by step, and embarked on a rise that shocked both the government and the public.
