A special forces soldier transmigrates into the body of the heir to the Duke of Zhenguo in the Great Shuo. It is the period of mourning, but he still devotes himself wholeheartedly to supporting his fiancée. With his help, she overcomes every obstacle and becomes a renowned female general. In return, however, she betrays him without mercy and resolutely breaks off their engagement. Their past affection vanishes like smoke.
Fate has other plans. After an accident, he spends the night with the empress, who is disguised as a man, and feelings quietly begin to blossom between them.
At court, corrupt officials abuse their power, and chaos reigns. With extraordinary wit and strategy, he turns the tide and holds up a crumbling realm, restoring order to the land. On the battlefield, he appears and vanishes like a phantom, commanding his troops with godlike skill and leaving bandits quaking with fear and utterly defeated.
He is richer than an entire nation, unmatched in talent, and his poems and lyrics astonish the world. He is hailed as the greatest poet and lyricist of his age. To the empress, he is also the indispensable pillar who keeps the realm steady. His words, "I'll protect my woman," reveal both his steely tenderness and his sense of responsibility.
If no one in this world is willing to reason with him, then this discarded heir will turn his fate around against all odds. With the force of a thunderbolt, he will rise to become emperor, end the turmoil, and reshape the order of the world!
