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...
