Curator note

Traveling back in time to the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, Xu Ping passed the imperial examination with flying colors, but offended the Empress Dowager and was sent to serve as an official in Lingnan. Starting as a minor official on the frontier, he rose through the ranks and finally achieved success, writing his own legend in the Song Dynasty. Emerging from the chaos of the Five Dynasties period, the Northern Song Dynasty saw the annihilation of powerful clans, the absence of gentry, and the underdevelopment of clan society. The dramatic shifts in social class were unprecedented in peaceful times. Under the rule of the Song Dynasty, there were no longer any lowly people; it was an era where birth did not matter. The son of a servant could become a prime minister, and a common soldier could rise to the rank of army commander. This was the best of times, when anything was possible for an individual. This was the worst of times, when a large, well-equipped standing army suffered repeated defeats, ultimately dragging the entire nation into the abyss. This era changed Xu Ping, and Xu Ping, in turn, changed this era. The rich are the wealthiest in the world; the noble are the most powerful officials. Following in the footsteps of a time traveler, we look back at the distant splendor of the Song Dynasty.

This is the story of a graduate student majoring in Classical Chinese who has been repeatedly thwarted in his job search, and who travels back to the mid-Ming Dynasty and enters the body of a young child in a mountain village. A dull father and a shrewish mother, a whole host of peculiar relatives—the farmhouse courtyard is always rife with trouble. Fortunately, we have thousands of years of historical heritage, the Four Books and Five Classics, and the eight-legged essay; our major is also relevant, so who says it's impossible for a poor family to produce a successful child? As national power rises, the government can govern without any intervention. Lax laws and regulations, and lax official discipline; There were a few treacherous officials, and also some Japanese pirates; But overall, it can be said that this was fertile ground for the free growth of the literati. And so began the legendary rise of a poor family. This article is dedicated to all classic time-travel stories.
