Based on the boys-love novel “Chun Jiang Hua Ye Yue”, Red Fox Scholar tells the story of an impoverished scholar, Wang Zijin played by actor Chen Linong, who sojourns to Beijing to participate in the imperial examination.
In the process he is discovered by Bai Xian, a little fox demon, played by Li Xian who disguises himself as a young man to travel the human world in search of a divine pill.
