share time: 2025-10-04 00:33:32

Shen Yan, the most neglected Seventh Prince of the Great Jing Dynasty, was sent to a border fief to "reflect" because of his mother's low status. He planned to live a carefree life fishing and raising cranes—until he saw the tragedy: drought had destroyed harvests, and corrupt officials were stealing grain, leaving people to starve. Reluctant at first, Shen Yan couldn't bear to watch starving children. He opened granaries, investigated corruption, and built irrigation canals. To his surprise, these "small acts" reached the capital: ministers praised him as "wise," and even the Emperor wanted to summon him back. What's more, Su Wan, a local herbalist, had secretly collected evidence of corruption and said with a smile, "I knew you weren't really wasting your time." With power struggles in the capital and growing feelings between them, why has Shen Yan's "carefree life" suddenly become so complicated?
