Underneath the golden tiles and red walls of the Forbidden City lies a forbidden secret that could tear apart a dynasty. Is a piece of blood-stained Chongzhen edict the spark that overturns the country, or is it the key to great wealth?
On a snowy night in the last years of Shunzhi, the young man Ling Yun's family was destroyed. My father was convicted of poetry and imprisoned; the soldiers who raided the house continued to laugh wildly, and the men in black who demanded their lives followed him closely. In a desperate situation, he took only two things with him: a copy of the "Book of Changes" with hidden mysteries, and a torn secret letter with strange symbols on it, which contained the shocking "Legacy of the Lie Huang" - a relic of the former Emperor Chongzhen!
In order to survive, he concealed his name and became the humblest scribe in the Forbidden City. However, deep inside the cold palace, the murderous intent is even greater! The powerful Aobai watched with eagle eyes, the young emperor Kangxi was dormant, the mysterious man in black lurked like a poisonous snake, and the grassy world was watching with eager eyes... All forces were like sharks smelling blood, surrounding the illusory "Chongzhen Blood Edict", launching a silent but deadly hunt.
Ling Yun, a little man with a life like an ant, accidentally grasped the fuse that set off this shocking storm. Where does the fragment in his hand point? Is it a secret document from the former Ming Dynasty that can rewrite the fate of the dynasty, or is it a treasure of national restoration that can shake Jiuding? One wrong step and your body will be shattered into pieces; one wrong thought may cause the mountains and rivers to overturn!
The most glorious in this world
