A modern historian transmigrates into the body of Wang Bo in the early Tang dynasty. At the Tengwang Pavilion banquet in the second year of Shangyuan, he writes a revised version of the Preface to the Tengwang Pavilion, changing the fate that historically saw him drown!
Blessed with peerless literary talent and knowledge of a thousand years of later strategies and technology, he heads south to Jiaozhi to establish a foothold in the southern frontier. He promotes agriculture and education, develops medicines to combat miasma, and builds a navy to command the vast South China Sea. He enters the court to assist Wu Zetian, reforms the imperial examinations, checks the power of aristocratic clans, and nips the dangers that could lead to the An Lushan Rebellion in the bud.
He serves as an envoy to Silla, develops Liuqiu, makes the Western Regions tremble before him, and forges connections with Tianzhu. The lands of ten realms all become part of his grand design. With a brush, he writes magnificent poems and prose; with a sword at his side, he quells the flames of war on the frontier.
From a disgraced official in exile, he rises to become a chancellor and prince, making his mark across the world and creating a glorious Tang dynasty whose territory far surpasses that recorded in history! Watch Wang Bo use his extraordinary talents and strategies to write his own legendary tale of a golden age.
