The Disgraced Poet's Gambit

Leo Lennox transmigrates as the orphan of a wrongly convicted marquis. He encounters Seraphina Morgan (Marquis Morgan's daughter) and tears up his engagement with Marquis Norwood's daughter, who despises the poor. Unable to enter officialdom, he saves the nation through industry. He researches White Sugar, captures the market, and recites a poem at the Chancellor's gathering. The Empress appoints him a first-rank Imperial Merchant.
