After the sudden death of Tang Yu, a top student in the history department, he was transported to Jiankang City of the Eastern Jin Dynasty during the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Five Barbarian Tribes and became a poor boy. At the beginning of the game, he was forced by his father to be the male favorite and was assassinated by the holy maiden Xi 'er of the evil sect. To save his life, he was forced to marry Xie Qiutong, the most beautiful woman in Jiankang who was addicted to killing her husband. After entering the Xie family, Tang Yu was caught up in Xie Qiutong's schemes, Xi 'er's threats and the power struggles of the noble family. He relied on modern knowledge to defuse crises and build up his reputation. He was drawn into the struggle between the Wang family and the Crown Prince Sima Yuan, exposed the fraud of the worship of the gods on Zao Kong Mountain and the truth of the hunting and murder at Fang Shan. Eventually, he saved the emperor at the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, got rid of his status as a son-in-law, and was appointed to Shu County, embarking on a path to stand his ground in the chaotic times.
