Feng Quan Strategy

During the reign of Emperor Yonghe, women were emperors, women were officials, and men could only reach the sixth rank. Shen Zhaoning, a talented man from the south of the Yangtze River, was full of knowledge, but because he was born a man, he was destined to miss out on fame. He met Xiao Lingyi, who was still a concubine at the time, in front of the Da Ci'en Temple - a startling glance and deep love. In the small temple on Zhongnan Mountain, with red candles as evidence and strong wine as alliance, the two young men made a vow that would not be allowed by the world. However, after Xiao Lingyi ascended the throne and became the empress, she was no longer the blushing girl on Zhongnan Mountain. Shen Zhaoning knelt in front of Weiyang Palace and petitioned for the establishment of a male official system. In exchange, he was exiled to Lingnan for four years. However, the position of emperor's husband actually fell into the hands of their common old friend Pei Yun. One is a high-ranking empress, and the other is a teacher far away in Lingnan. Across the ninety-nine white jade steps, across the entire world's rules and prejudices, can they come to each other?
