Qin Feng transmigrates to the Great Zhou Dynasty, where disaster strikes from the start.
His entire family has rebelled for generations, and every last one of them is a notorious traitor...
His father is the leader of Longtoushan Stronghold, with over a thousand bandits at his command and a place at the top of the authorities' wanted list year after year!
His mother is a Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect, whose tens of thousands of followers plot rebellion!
His grandfather once raised an army against the court, only to fail. His wanted portrait is plastered across the prefectures!
His grandmother is a remnant of the previous dynasty...
The Great Zhou is powerful, and sooner or later the whole family will be beheaded in the marketplace.
The only way to stay alive is to clear their name through the imperial examinations.
From that day on,
Qin Feng develops a reading addiction and secretly prepares for the exams behind everyone's back.
He reads while fighting, reads while kidnapping people, and keeps reading while visiting brothels and robbing gambling dens.
At last, Heaven rewards his efforts. With his fists, he breaks free of his family's poverty and passes the palace examination as its top scholar!
A traitor has appeared in the bandits' den. Facing his furious family, Qin Feng declares on the spot, "I'm joining the court as an undercover agent. It's all for the cause of rebellion!"
Years later,
Qin Feng wears the imperial robes and sits on the Dragon Throne, gazing down at the kneeling officials. He can't help but sigh.
"The old saying was right: It's easier to fight your way into the capital than to pass the exams and enter it."
