Three-foot Scholar: I Came to Repay, But You Forced Me to Rebel

share time: 2025-12-25 12:31:48

Lin Yan, a poor scholar, hid his talent to help General Shen Shuang train soldiers, raise grain, and plan the attack on Chang'an—all to repay her life-saving grace and fulfill her grand wish of "restoring peace to the world". But on the day the city fell, Shen Shuang, dressed in a phoenix crown and ceremonial robe, knelt before the emperor, falsely accusing him of being a "rebel remnant" and demanding his immediate execution. Rescued by Li Zhaoning, the female emperor of the enemy state, at the brink of death, Lin Yan finally saw Shen Shuang's true face: she never wanted peace—only the position of queen. Disheartened, he decided to "rebel" as she claimed: using his extraordinary strategies to help Li Zhaoning defeat warlords and pacify the realm. Yet when Li Zhaoning offered him the throne, Lin Yan refused with a smile—he had only ever wanted to be a free-spirited scholar. But after being betrayed by his benefactor and pushed by fate, this time, he would live for himself.
