About This Novel

Several volumes of scraps that were found and lost, a piece of historical fact that has been obscured. Why did Hu Fu's cavalry and shooting shine in China, but King Zhao Wuling could only be trapped in the sand dunes? The smoke on the paper is about to be scrapped, echoing in the depths of history, and the truth is revealed at the last moment! In the middle and late Warring States period, King Wuling of Zhao promoted "Hufu riding and shooting", which enabled Zhao to rise to become the overlord of the Central Plains. However, at the height of his power, the hero suddenly abdicated and died mysteriously in the Sand Dune Palace not long after. The official annals are vague, but folk rumors are widespread - a palace coup, covering up the death of the most confusing king in Chinese history. Two thousand three hundred years later, a notebook written by an archaeologist of the Republic of China reappeared in the world. According to his notes, during his excavations at the Yin Ruins, he discovered several volumes of damaged bamboo slips near the sand dune site. The contents were actually secret histories privately written by Zhao State historians. Although the bamboo slips are incomplete, they point directly to the shocking inside story of the Dune Incident: power, betrayal, unspoken emotions, and the truth that a historian defended with blood. At that time, Dong Yong, the historian of Zhao State, took the risk to investigate the death of King Wuling of Zhao. He went deep into the sand dunes, secretly interviewed dignitaries, soldiers, and palace officials, and pieced together the truth amidst numerous obstacles and murderous intentions. However, when he took hold of the pen, he was caught in a dilemma: recording truthfully would surely lead to national chaos; remaining silent would negate the responsibility of the historian. What's even more frightening is that the secrets hidden in the bamboo slips actually involve the incredible motives behind the regicide...
