In the seventh year of the Jiajing reign, Lu Xingzhou, a military householder in the Xuanfu government, took part in the imperial examination when he came to fill in the paperwork. He relied on his memory of studying Ming history in his previous life and modern academic methods: he was the first in the county examination and the top in the government examination. However, the mystery of his brother's "falling death" from the side wall was uncovered step by step as his fame increased, leading to the dark web and old court cases of arms smugglers in the guard station. In the next ten years or so, he went from being the son of a military household under the border wall to Lienzhong Sanyuan, entering Hanlin, and Libian Town. Finally, as a civil servant, he took charge of the country's restructuring and revitalized military affairs.
