He puts down rebellions, solves mysterious cases, battles powerful ministers, and foils conspiracies. When the iron hooves of the An Lushan Rebellion shatter Chang'an's splendor and the glory of the Tang dynasty nears its end, can he single-handedly save a collapsing empire and restore the greatness of the High Tang? This is not just a contest of wits, but also a magnificent, tragic ballad of loyalty and betrayal, blood and tenderness.
