I Was Illiterate in the Fifth Generation

Shen Zhibai, a blogger who is a dabbler in the history department, is familiar with the historical framework of the Five Dynasties and the Early Song Dynasty, but cannot remember all the details. Once he traveled through the troubled Bianliang, which fell two years after Zhou Xiande, he became a helpless and down-and-out young man. This is the crazy era of fifty-three years and five dynasties. It is the iron-blooded chaos of "the one with strong soldiers and horses is the emperor". It is also the window period when Chai Rong is determined to bring peace to the world and Zhao Kuangyin is dormant. He originally wanted to rely on a half-full of history to predict the general trend and live a peaceful life, but soon found that he had a pirated script full of errors and omissions. He remembers the wrong year, confuses the situation, speaks modern nonsense, writes in simplified Chinese, and has a weird accent. He can be called the top illiterate of the fifth generation. But every time he got it wrong: casually complaining about the inefficiency of military training was regarded as a high-level theory on military management; random nonsense of modern logic became a vision for breaking the situation in troubled times. Everyone else thought that he had hidden strategies and insights into the future, but he was the only one who panicked, was talkative and cowardly, and just wanted to survive in safety. He deals with the diligent and paranoid Chai Rong, the fox friend Zhao Kuangyin who has not yet proclaimed himself emperor, the thoughtful Wang Pu, and the transparent and pure Fu Rong. He makes countless jokes with his misplaced cognition, and also stirs up the pattern of the times. From a speculator trying to predict history to an insider rooted in troubled times and involved in the situation, he gradually understood that history never needs to be rewritten by anyone. The one who truly grows is always himself in the torrent.
