Sikong Yan, a doctor of ancient architecture, suddenly fell into coma while staying up late to write his graduation thesis. When he opened his eyes, he traveled to the Qingshi Village of Nanjing State, which has no recorded history, and became a weak girl from a poor small farmer's family.
Faced with an existential crisis, her grandmother planned to sell her to a wealthy country man as a concubine in exchange for money to support the family. In a desperate situation, Sikong Yan relied on his solid knowledge of water conservancy to detect hidden dangers of flash floods and clever ways to divert and release floods, saving the entire village, and was appreciated by the county magistrate for this.
She used her ability to control floods to pay off her family's debts, and while dealing with rumors and criticism from her clan's neighbors, she studied hard in secret. Coinciding with the unprecedented implementation of the imperial examination for women in Nanjing Kingdom, this once-in-a-lifetime door slowly opened in front of her.
There was a fierce battle in the examination room, but the journey went smoothly. She took her whole family to the capital. In the Jinluan Palace Examination, his talent and knowledge were astonishing, and he attracted the prince to fall in love at first sight.
The prince's eyes were blazing: "Yanyan, can you be my crown prince?"
Sikong Yan kowtowed calmly and said in a clear voice: "I'm sorry, Prince, but my ambition is to become a marquis and become a prime minister!"
Hongzhuang is not in love with the Eastern Palace, but the heroine aspires to be in the temple.
From then on, the Nanjing court had a female prime minister who managed the mountains and rivers with civil engineering and brought peace to the people with her talent and learning.
