Modern office worker Lin Yuan accidentally transmigrates to the Southern Dynasty, becoming a refugee beggar hunted by the government. In desperation, he impersonates Wang Jingyu, the sole survivor of the massacred Langya Wang clan. He only intends to escape danger temporarily, but his modern historical knowledge helps him expose a foreign spy's plot and save the crown prince, earning him the position of Imperial Academy Director. However, his fake identity is like a hanging blade: on one side, he gains the emperor's trust and the affection of Xie Zhaoning, daughter of a Langya family friend (who had a childhood bond with "Wang Jingyu" but notices his current words and deeds are totally different from the one in her memory); on the other side, the real culprit of the Wang clan massacre is secretly investigating to eliminate the "survivor". Lin Yuan must use modern wisdom to resolve court crises, keep his identity secret, and face Xie Zhaoning's soulful question—does she love the Wang Jingyu in her memory, or the real him? This rags-to-riches story is a double test of identity and true love.
