Jiayou Fengyunlu

Drunk And Happy, The Madman Flies Into The Sky

48K0

It was an ordinary autumn night in 1056 AD, the first year of Jiayou's reign in the Northern Song Dynasty. Zhao Huaisong, a doctor of history, accidentally traveled through time while compiling his doctoral thesis "The History of the Relationship between Song, Liao, Jin and Xia". When he woke up, he found himself lying in a dilapidated earthen house and became a 19-year-old poor scholar in Yuncheng County, Jeju Prefecture, Jingdong East Road. His father, Zhao Yuanlang, was falsely accused of being a "bandit" and imprisoned. The family was so poor that they didn't even have money to buy medicine. What he faced was a seemingly hopeless start. But what he holds in his mind is the knowledge accumulation of thousands of years of Chinese civilization, and a complete understanding of the Northern Song dynasty from its rise to its fall - he knows what will happen to this dynasty later: the shame of Jingkang, its preference for Jiangnan, and finally its destruction under the iron heel of the Mongols. He also knew that the dynasty was standing at a critical crossroads: in the second year of Jiayou, the scientific examination known as the "Millennium Imperial Examination No. 1 Dragon and Tiger List" was about to be held. Su Shi, Su Che, Zeng Gong, Zhang Zai, Cheng Hao, Cheng Yi... These names that would illuminate half a century of the Song Dynasty would all appear in the same examination room. And he will be there too.
