One Fortune a Day: From Castoff of a Poor Family to Powerful Minister of the Realm

Ye Guan transmigrated to the Great Sheng dynasty and became a poor scholar’s son, abandoned and bullied by all.

His father died under mysterious circumstances, his uncles seized his farmland, and his clan even planned to take away his eligibility documents for the imperial exams, condemning him to a lifetime of shame.

Fortunately, at his lowest point, Ye Guan awakened the Heaven-Questioning Divination Disk.

One divination a day let him glimpse fortune and misfortune, and see a fragment of the future.

His clansmen mocked him, saying he couldn’t even pass the scholar exams?

Ye Guan used divination to read the situation, predicted the exam questions, and exposed cheating. He rose from top candidate in the county exams to provincial champion, then metropolitan exam champion and palace exam champion, achieving the rare honor of Threefold Laureate and becoming famous throughout the realm!

The court officials sneered that a man of humble birth knew nothing about governing?

He cleared the granaries, stabilized salt prices, controlled floods, and opened trade routes, enacting a new policy that saved countless disaster victims.

The generals laughed that he was just a frail scholar who knew nothing about war?

He restored military discipline, reformed the army, bred warhorses, and trained cavalry, personally building an invincible new army that struck fear into the tribes of the steppe!

From a poor young man cast aside by his clan to a top scholar courted by princes; from a pawn at the mercy of the court to the powerful chancellor who held the fate of the realm in his hands.

At first, Ye Guan only wanted to protect his mother and younger sister, and live like a person.

But when rebellion erupted, cavalry swept south, and the dynasty teetered on the brink of collapse, the court finally realized in terror:

They were fighting over the throne.

But Ye Guan’s moves were aimed at the entire realm.
