This drama tells the story of Aixinjueluo Hongzhou, the smartest prince in the Qing Dynasty, who was smart, absurd and confused in his life.
Hong Zhou grew up in the golden age of the Qing Dynasty and was born in the Kangxi Dynasty. He witnessed the struggle for the throne among the nine sons, and witnessed the success of his father Yongzheng in ascending to the throne, and the fate of his uncles and uncles who became princes and princes and lost and were thieves.
Hongzhou, who grew up in the Yongzheng Dynasty, became the most beloved young prince of his father Yongzheng. He was once a popular candidate for the throne. Hongzhou's third brother Hongshi lost his life for the throne, but Hongzhou became the only prince who could compete with his fourth brother Hongli for the throne. It seemed that he could not compete, but he did! On the surface, he is absurd and unrestrained. In private, he cultivates counselors, befriends literati and righteous people, cultivates powerful ministers, and marries the daughter of a famous family. This can be explained by building a plank road to secretly seize the throne. After all, he is only one step away from the throne.
Hongzhou's lifelong love Cao Xuelian can play tricks on people. Cao Xuelian, who was originally destined to be Hongzhou Fujin, had to choose to participate in Hongli Fujin's draft because Cao's house was ransacked. Hongzhou snatched the bride on the spot and made a big fuss at the draft. Therefore, Hongzhou was punished by Yongzheng, and Cao Xuelian was also sent to Mongolia to get married. Later, Hongzhou married the famous daughter Wu Xinyue, and the two missed each other by chance. Hong Zhou failed to get what he asked for. Afterwards, Hong Zhou's temperament changed drastically and he began to fight for power under the guidance of his adviser Jia Shifang. However, the betrayal of his friends, the murder of his adviser, and the death of his son made him frustrated, and he finally withdrew from the battle for the throne. The prince does not want to live a thousand years, and he does not want to be the king in the palace. He only wants to be a minister. The right way is to be wise and protect yourself.
This drama focuses on the love and hatred of the descendants of Kangxi, Cao Yin, Nalan Xingde, and Geng Juzhong. From the perspective of a prince, it tells the rise and fall of a dynasty. The only thing left behind by the rotation of dynasties is those absurd stories about him.
Purpose: A wise and self-protective way of survival
