Lin Yi, a graduate student in the Department of History, suddenly encountered a strange phenomenon while collecting information in the Forbidden City. His body-worn solar camera followed him back in time to the early years of Jiaqing. At that time, the White Lotus Sect was in constant turmoil, Heshen Yu Dangfu was engaged in corruption, the clan Yongrong was amassing power for his own sake, the Opium Rebellion was imminent, and the Qing Dynasty was in jeopardy. Others travel through time, carry magical weapons, and build equipment. His only reliance is a camera that can record audio and video.
Lin Yi was hunted when he first arrived in the Forbidden City. In a critical situation, he recorded evidence of Fu Chang'an's conspiracy. With the help of his own video, he was granted the title of Records Officer by Jiaqing and built his own Records Pavilion. He founded a folk film festival to make public the scenes of corrupt officials and their rebellion, and used images to expose the falsified written lies.
Fu Chang'an has secretly assassinated many times, and Yong Rong, a private health official, wants to eliminate future troubles. The White Lotus Saint with a secret life experience and the East Indians who collude with foreign traders and opium are all enemies of him. Lin Yi teamed up with his loyal minister Nalan Chengzhi, and worked side by side with the intelligent woman Shi Suyao to collect irrefutable evidence from all parties. The evidence of the crime was played in public in the court, and the shady story of corruption and rebellion was revealed layer by layer.
He built top-secret archives, promoted the new calendar to enlighten people's wisdom, set up screening points widely, gradually reduced the privileges of the Eight Banners, rectified the national treasury, and blocked opium channels. At the Autumn Ceremony, Lin Yi released the complete video of Yong Rong colluding with foreigners to crush his conspiracy to usurp the throne.
Jiaqing decided to decentralize power and carry out reforms, and Lin Yi resigned from the throne to record the regent presiding over the world's reform. Using images as a sharp blade and truth as a foundation, we can resolve internal worries, check and balance foreign troubles, and rely on a unique documentary golden finger to reverse the decline of the country and continue peace for the Qing Dynasty for three hundred years.
