The Map of the Great Liang Realm

Everyone else chases the throne and the power that comes with it. He alone prefers a quiet, carefree life.

As a prince of the Great Liang dynasty, Li Zhen has never wanted to claim the supreme throne. All he seeks is to keep a low profile and stay out of conflict.

But with the dynasty's fortunes wavering, factional strife at home and war flaring on the borders, he can no longer keep himself out of the storm.

His original resolve proves hard to hold, and the tide of events impossible to resist. At last, he sheds his carefree disguise and steps into the abyss of political intrigue.

He uses strategy to break the court's deadlocks, an iron fist to quell unrest across the realm, and a benevolent heart to protect its people.
