Deep in the tomb passage, the cold stone walls hide thousands of years of secrets, as well as the turning point of fate. When the father and son who robbed the tomb touched the core of Xuanzong's tomb, the gears of history suddenly shifted.

With modern memories and the knowledge of Tang history taught by his father, Li Yi stood in the era of Xuanzong and Li Chen. From the son of a tomb robber to being involved in the palace whirlpool, can he survive in this troubled world where human life is like a piece of grass?
