The Shen family in Jiangnan was destroyed overnight, and his legitimate son Shen Yangbai was reduced to death row. When he was about to die, he awakened the "Heavenly Secret System" and embarked on the road of revenge. The system gave him the ability to detect intelligence, extract skills, and deduce destiny, but it also made him involved in a deeper maelstrom of intrigue.
After escaping from the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, he borrowed the power of Xuanlin Pavilion to lie dormant, changed his name to "Suyang" and joined Enke, knocking on the door of the court with his wisdom. Faced with the powerful regent King Qin and the cunning accomplice Zhou Heng, he followed every step: gaining fame and reputation through the imperial examinations, solving strange cases to win people's hearts, instigating rebellion against the enemy camp to create civil strife, and uniting with Qingliu to stir up trouble.
The appearance of the female counselor Su Wantang makes this revenge a little more variable - is it sympathy for the opponent, or is it a secret contest with contradictory positions? When the truth deduced by the system was revealed layer by layer, there was actually a conspiracy to subvert the dynasty behind the destruction of the Shen family.
In the life-and-death confrontation in the Jinluan Palace, the reshuffle of power intertwined with blood and fire, Shen Yangbai used revenge as his blade and the system as his shield to reach the top of the sky amidst the mountain of corpses and sea of bones. But when the power is in hand, the system's new mission implies: this is not the end, but the beginning of a larger chess game...
