Chen Feng Devours the Corrupt: A Bloodbath Through the Corridors of Power

In the early years of the Tianqi era, with a child emperor on the throne, Grand Secretary Qin Song monopolizes power and throws the government into chaos. He frames the loyal Lin Jing for treason and, on the day of his birthday banquet, leads the Imperial Guards in slaughtering the entire Lin family. Fortunately, Chu Kuang, a chivalrous wanderer and an old friend of Lin Jing’s, saves the young Lin Chen at the cost of his own life, sending him into exile. Chu Kuang takes Lin Chen to the Hidden Immortal Sect on Mount Huang, where eight years of training hone him into a master of peerless martial arts and teach him the way of “stopping violence through martial force.” At sixteen, he learns the truth about his origins and vows revenge. He joins the army at Yanmen Pass, using his wits to raid an enemy supply camp by night and his courage to win against overwhelming odds. After six years of war, he becomes General Who Guards the North, commanding a hundred thousand troops. When he returns to the capital, Lin Chen earns the trust of the young emperor, Zhao Heng. Together, they turn the neutral faction against Qin Song and gather irrefutable proof of his treason and usurpation. At the Lantern Festival banquet, Lin Chen kills Qin Song with his sword and publicly reveals the evidence, clearing the Lin family’s name. In the end, Lin Chen helps the emperor put the court in order and protect the people, transforming from an orphan driven by revenge into a pillar of the realm and carrying on the legacy of the loyal and righteous.
