On a rainy night, he returned from death.
In his previous life, he was the seventh prince who failed to seize the throne, and his throat was cut by the Shadow Pavilion assassin.
In this life, he was reborn at a point where everything had not yet begun - a side palace in a cold palace. Under the identity of an unpopular prince, he hid a blood feud and unfinished ambitions.
The court is like a chess game, and all living beings are pawns.
The prince formed a clique for personal gain, the second prince was hypocritical and sinister, and the emperor looked on with cold eyes.
But he, the "sick and incompetent" seventh prince, was secretly playing chess:
Using the memories of the past life to intercept and kill the prince's henchmen, the battle of salt and iron caused the opponent to lose all their money; borrowing the power of the Jianghu to form the "Dark Feather Guard", the female assassin rescued by Xue Ye was actually burdened with the mystery of the family's annihilation; under the palace rewarded by the emperor, buried the shocking secret of the former imperial mausoleum...
When Shadow Pavilion's blade approached again, the truth emerged——
"Do you think rebirth is a gift from God?" The man in black robe took off his mask, "It's just a result of what I've been waiting for for thirty years!"
This is a feast of intrigue spanning two lifetimes.
From the abandoned son in the cold palace to the prince in prison, from the chessboard of rivers and lakes to the battlefield outside the Great Wall.
He will use modern wisdom to tear apart the dark laws of the ancient court,
Let the world know——
Who is the real chess player!
