The Literary PhD in Ancient China: Saving Cities, Stirring Courts, and Rising as a Minister Through Wit Plot:

Lin Zhao, a literary PhD, wakes up as a penniless scholar in ancient China. No sooner has he become a minor county official than his county is besieged by bandits—the prefect flees, soldiers cower in fear, and the people wait绝望ly for death. Using the "Empty Fort Strategy" from *The Art of War* and defensive techniques from *Mozi*, he organizes the elderly, women, and children to set up decoys and light beacons, surprisingly scaring off a thousand bandits! This feat catches the Northern Prince's attention, who drags him to the capital, only to get him entangled in the deadly power struggle between the crown prince and the prime minister over the throne. Lin Zhao uses his modern literary knowledge to dismantle the prime minister's "literary inquisition" traps and helps the crown prince uncover a decade-old "treason case" to bring down the powerful official. Just as he's about to be granted a noble title and high office, he discovers that the secret of his transmigration is linked to a copy of *Chu Ci* (Songs of Chu) in the Northern Prince's study—an exact replica of the one from his modern world...

After Inheriting the Clinic, I Gained the Divine Doctor's Legacy

After Inheriting the Clinic, I Gained the Divine Doctor's Legacy

Lin Xiaoman had just quit her white-collar job when her grandfather's will forced her to inherit the old medical clinic—dilapidated facade, three months of unpaid rent, and the private hospital across the street stealing patients daily. She almost sold it cheaply until, on her grandfather's death anniversary night, she found an old book wrapped in red cloth in the attic. The moment her finger touched the cover, memories of ancient divine doctors' skills flooded her mind: acupuncture for infant convulsions, secret recipes for terminal illnesses, and the ability to diagnose patients abandoned by Western medicine at a glance. But right after saving an elderly man with a sudden heart attack, the clinic door was splashed with red paint and a note left: "Dare to use the clinic's things, you'll be next." Even stranger: the reason her grandfather suddenly closed the clinic, the missing divine doctor's manuscripts, and the黑衣人 wandering outside at night... All clues point to a dry well in the backyard. She uses the inherited skills to heal while uncovering decades-old secrets and holding onto her grandfather's final obsession.
