＜Story＞

In the Tang capital of Chang'an, Li Shande, a low-ranking official, one day receives a command from the emperor that will determine his fate. "Deliver fresh lychees from the distant southern region of Lingnan to Chang'an." Lychees are very perishable, and it is almost impossible to deliver them unharmed from Lingnan, thousands of kilometers away, to Chang'an. Success means a path to promotion, but failure means danger to one's life——.

Li Shande, who was appointed as the "Lychee Envoy" against his will due to his colleagues' schemes, heads to Lingnan and joins forces with unexpected companions, including the head of a lychee farm, a merchant investing in the plan, and a young man who was oppressed as a slave. As the deadline approaches, the perishable fruit, and the power struggle among the officials in the court. Amid numerous adversities, the unprecedented "Lychee Transport Plan" that will shake history is about to begin!
