Synopsis

Transmigrated as a poor scholar's abandoned son, Ye Guan is mocked by his clan for being too stupid to even pass the lowest imperial exam?

No problem. I draw a fortune every day, and breeze through the provincial, metropolitan, and palace exams to claim the title of top scholar.

Princes, chancellors, and generals all owe me their lives.

They call me a weak scholar? I'll train an invincible cavalry in response.

They say I'm too young? Before long, my new policies will earn the praise of the people.

From despised to admired, from struggling to survive to holding the power of life and death, the world will remember my name: Ye Guan!
