Destiny Lies with the People

This novel is not only a majestic epic that combines historical events, metaphysical battles, and military strategies, but also a profound inquiry about power, morality, and the value of life: In the balance between the dragon's veins and the people's hearts, what is the eternal cornerstone of the country? When secrets become a tool for political intrigue, how can a wise man stick to his true heart? In troubled times, should individuals just go with the flow, or light a spark to light the way forward? Follow the footsteps of Shen Qingxuan and Su Yunxi, from the mist of Suzhou to the wind and clouds of the Imperial Capital, from the flames of the Central Plains to the countryside of Jiangnan, and see how a compass stirs up the chess game in the world, and how a half-volume green bag is used to benefit future generations. Witness how a fallen Feng Shui master used his blind eyes to "see" the essence of the rise and fall of a dynasty in the midst of revenge, struggle, sacrifice and enlightenment, and finally left behind a motto that traveled through time and space: "The eternal strength of a country lies in virtue and not in dragons.
