This is a story about someone who transmigrates and becomes an ordinary person. Unwittingly, Zhao Xing became a Song Dynasty person, and his acquaintances included famous poets, infamous corrupt officials, bandits forced to join the Liangshan outlaws, and beauties of unparalleled charm. This is an era of "the moon rising above the willow branches, lovers meeting after dusk," an era where true and romantic men have graced the ages; where timeless verses have shone through the ages; where dazzling commercial song and dance performances and ingenious business competition abound... In this magnificent era, Zhao Xing thrives, enjoying the refined life of this age with ease. This book contains no depictions of court intrigue or official power struggles. It simply portrays the worldview of ordinary people in the Song Dynasty. Perhaps the content of this book will overturn your conventional thinking about the Song Dynasty, but please savor it carefully.
