Golden Armor Goes Against Fate

In the Dayong Dynasty, the innocent souls wept at the construction site of the imperial mausoleum, and the family of rural boy Cai Chen was conscripted and tortured to death. With his ambition to lead the world, he wanted to take the imperial examination, but he was framed by corrupt officials, excluded by wealthy businessmen, and became a prisoner. A poem manuscript accidentally spread in prison, and he escaped during a heavy rainstorm on his way to the frontier. He went deep into the mountains and met a hidden village. In later generations, he learned to gather people and develop industries, secretly accumulating strength. At this time, golden chrysanthemums were planted all over the imperial city, the emperor was extravagant, and the people exchanged their children for food. Cai Chen wrote "The whole city is covered with golden armor" in a brothel in the capital. This poem moved the world. He then raised a banner of righteousness to gather talented people, vowing to tear up the decadent dynasty and restore peace and prosperity to all people.
