A modern business tycoon wakes up as a condemned prisoner being sent into exile!
Lin Zhao, a strategy director at a publicly listed company, refuses to collude with corrupt executives, but they frame him for bribery, and he dies full of resentment. When he opens his eyes again, he has become a condemned prisoner exiled to the northwestern borderlands of the Great Chu dynasty, convicted of colluding with a foreign enemy! Before him are starving refugees as far as the eye can see, savage northern raiders on the border, and a gang of corrupt officials who siphon off soldiers' pay and bleed the land dry!
A hellish start? Lin Zhao sneers: Perfect. I'll tear this rotten dynasty apart with my own hands!
