Xiao Wenyuan, the heir to a tea business, has no desire to take over his family’s company as soon as he graduates. He chooses to start his own business, and just as it takes off and he is about to return home to inherit the family enterprise, he unexpectedly discovers that his warehouse is connected to a dynasty from a thousand years ago.
That is how he meets the empress who vanished from history.
By then, the empress is on the brink of her country’s destruction and her people’s demise. Her uncle has allied with foreign tribes, slaughtering and pillaging across the land, while the empress is trapped in the capital.
The capital has run out of food and water, and its people have even begun to eat their own children.
As she watches the capital become a living hell, the empress can only place her hopes in the gods.
Xiao Wenyuan comes to her aid like a savior, selling the huge stockpile of soon-to-expire food in his warehouse to the ancient world.
In return, the empress offers him countless treasures of gold and silver.
These treasures make Xiao Wenyuan a renowned entrepreneur, while the food helps the empress endure the most agonizing days.
