[Fantasy + faction building + farming + imperial power struggle]
His father died on the battlefield fighting for the Great Qian, but the county government embezzled the compensation money.
His mother worked day and night to put him through school, but in the end, she died bitter and sick, unable to afford treatment.
Born into a poor family in the Great Qian, Qin Yi studied hard from childhood. He spent more than ten years poring over books, all for the chance to pass the imperial examinations and govern the country for the people.
On the day of the palace exam, his essay on governing the country shook the divine capital. Opening up martial arts, restricting the great clans... Every proposal was a sound strategy for strengthening the nation, but each one struck a blow against the powerful aristocratic families.
To appease the great clans and preserve their so-called greater good, the empress accused him of treason, burned his top-scorer exam paper in front of everyone, and exiled him to the borderlands!
Watching ten years of study, earned through his parents’ sacrifices, go up in flames, Qin Yi finally came to his senses.
The Great Qian was rotten to its core. It wasn’t worth saving!

“You burned my top-scorer exam paper and branded me a rebel?”

Qin Yi sat upon the ninth tier of the imperial palace, looking down on the empress of the fallen nation.
“What you burned back then wasn’t just an exam paper.”
“It was the Great Qian’s last hope of fortune!”
