Alternate history + time travel to save people + anti-war group portraits
He was originally a scholar of modern history, but when he opened his eyes, he became the most inconspicuous scribe in Bianjing during the Jingkang period.
The Jin soldiers marched south, and the snow fell on the imperial city.
The princes of the Manchu Dynasty were still arguing about peace talks, but the people were already standing on the threshold of national subjugation.
Zhang Chengru knew that the Song Dynasty would perish, that the emperor would hunt north, and that countless clan members, maids, craftsmen, and children would disappear outside of history books.
But he has no military power, no imperial edict, and even a warning will be regarded as a lie.
So he gave up saving the dynasty and turned around to save specific people.
A household registration book, a list of palace maids, a waterway to escape south, and a "Bianjing Heritage" hidden in the snowy night.
He couldn't save everyone, but he had to write down the names of those destined to be forgotten.
History will not remember everyone unless someone writes their name.
