Blood splattered on the Xuanwu Gate, and the former prince Li Xuanming was reborn as Lin Xuan, a modern college student. A historical chess player has been reduced to the bottom of modern society. Are the machinations and strategies he was proud of still useful in the reinforced concrete jungle?
He soon discovered that the world was far more bizarre than he imagined: he made a fortune by picking up treasures based on antique knowledge, but he was suppressed by mysterious forces; the policewoman consultant he rescued was pursuing the origin of his skills; what was even more frightening was that the multinational female CEO who looked at him from a distance at the auction actually had the same face as the love who betrayed him in her previous life!
There was a strange movement in the broken jade pendant that he carried with him, and whispers spanning thousands of years echoed in his ears. Li Xuanming realized that his rebirth was not an accident, but a thousand-year plan that had been laid out for a long time. This time, he is no longer a prince serving the country and the people, he will live for himself, using the unparalleled wisdom of the ancients, in this new era - return to the throne!
