The Day My Whole Family Was Exiled, I Won the Top Scholar Title in Red

[Cutting Ties and Face-Slapping + Exam Success Against the Odds + The Whole Family Exiled + Legal Golden Finger + Powerful Court Official]

Tomorrow, the entire Wei family will be executed for treason. Yet today, my own father and stepmother are still plotting to force me to take the blame and die in place of my legitimate older brother!

A law PhD transmigrates into the Song dynasty as the despised “illegitimate son who brings misfortune,” facing a deadly predicament from the start: the extermination of his entire clan. If his family shows him no mercy, then he’ll show them no mercy when it comes to teaching them the law! They want him to be their scapegoat? He pulls out the Great Song Code and exploits loopholes in the law and clan customs to force his biased father to sign a “Separation and Disownment Deed” on the eve of the family’s arrest, legally severing ties with the clan and saving his own life.

The day the deed severing family ties is stamped, the imperial edict ordering the Censorate to confiscate the family’s property arrives at their door.

As his once-arrogant older brother and parents are shackled and sent down the road to exile in Lingnan, he rides through a ten-mile stretch of cheering crowds, clad in red, and takes first place in the imperial examination, winning the title of top provincial graduate!

Looking down at the Wei family members weeping and begging in the mud, regretful too late, he rides past them and says coldly, “You condemned criminals, do I know any of you?”

Watch as he wields the law like a sword, rising from a castoff son to enter government through the imperial examinations and carve his way through the Song court, step by step!
