Synopsis

[Genius Orphan Top Scholar X Stern, Scheming Chancellor]

On the eve of the spring imperial examinations, Yuan’s chief examiner, Liu Dongli, is brutally murdered. Zhou Che, an orphan of the Jiangzhou massacre, risks his life to enter the survival gambit designed for him by Lu Heng, the powerful chancellor. He seeks to uncover both the truth behind his mentor’s death and the secret of his own origins. Outwardly, he suppresses the poor and humble, but in secret he turns his blade against the true enemy: the mastermind who framed the entire Lu family and orchestrated the Jiangzhou massacre...

Zhou Che: “Chancellor.”

Lu Heng: “Why so formal? No bed for you tonight.”

Zhou Che: “...You fat bastard.”

Lu Heng: “If you think I’m fat, you’re welcome to find someone else.”

Zhou Che: “Would you let me?”

Lu Heng: “Of course I wouldn’t.”
