[Plot + Pregnancy + Iron-Blooded Expansion + Diplomatic Game]
In 1853, the third year of Xianfeng's reign, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom swept over half of the country. The British and French powers were eyeing it, and the Qing Empire was in turmoil.
Zhao Chen, a graduate student in the history department, was transported into this world and became the son of the leader of a bandit that was recruited outside Beijing. When he was nineteen years old, his father was poisoned and killed by a traitor in the court, and his 38,000 old troops were in danger.
Relying on the historical knowledge of his previous life and the secret layout of nineteen years, he completed the impossible task in ten days: forging an imperial edict, rebelling in Beijing, bloodthirsty the Qing palace, and holding the emperor hostage to order the princes. Overnight, the son of a bandit became the most powerful official since the founding of the Qing Dynasty.
But this is just the beginning.
A few years later, a young man walked out of the bandit camp and stood on the balcony of the New Imperial Palace in Tianjin Port.
He said softly: "More than ten years ago, what I was thinking about was how to survive. Today, what I am thinking about is how to let this country live better, stronger, and with more dignity."
