In the fifth year of Yongjia in the Western Jin Dynasty, Luoyang collapsed, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. Chen Yan, a history student, opened his eyes in this desperate situation and became Sima Fan, the tragic clan king of Xiangyang who has only a few strokes in the history books.
There is Hu Qi and Iron Shoes in front, and there is Jiangdong chess game behind. He picked up the blood-stained royal seal and made the only decision: lead the remaining troops to go south and defect to Sima Rui, the king of Langya in the east of the Yangtze River.
From then on, there was an idle prince in Jiankang City who wandered around in poetry and wine all day long. No one knew that what those drunken eyes saw were the undercurrents of noble families from the north and the south and the struggle between the imperial clans. He secretly made a move, circled among aristocratic families, and weaved an invisible web in the torrent of clothes and clothes crossing south.
From the idle prince to the center of power, from idle clouds and wild cranes to the man who plays chess. With the Northern Expedition as his ambition and reform as his blade, he tried to carve a glimmer of light into the iron wall of history. However, the family is like a mountain, and the people are like an abyss. Even if they know the future trajectory, can one person really turn the tide against the fate of fate?
