In the modern Xuan Dynasty, imperial power and mystical arts coexisted, sect forces penetrated the court, and the princes' fight for the throne was like a poisonous chess game, with every step accompanied by a fight of blood and fire. Shen Yan, the concubine of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, has no talent in the mysterious veins. He was regarded as an outcast since he was a child and was bullied in the Hou Mansion. But no one knows that he has been hiding for many years, and in adversity he has understood the true meaning of ancient mysticism, and even gained insight into the core of the court's conspiracy.
The prince's gang members are arrogant and domineering, trying to seize the military power of the general's palace; the second prince colludes with the devil and murders his brothers; the third prince is ambitious to win over the clan. When Shen Yan was forced to get involved in the battle for the reserve position, he used his mortal body to challenge the master of mystical arts, used his power to break the situation, and used his mystical skills to establish his authority. Killing sycophants, breaking up conspiracies, gathering confidants, and consolidating power. From a scorned concubine, to a powerful minister who stirred up troubles in the court, to the Ninth Five-Year Emperor in charge of the Xuan Dynasty, Shen Yan worked step by step, trampling all opponents under his feet, and established a path of iron-blooded emperor in the modern Xuan Dynasty!
There is no golden finger from the sky, only step-by-step calculation and hard-earned strength. Let's see how Shen Yan fights his way to the throne in the whirlpool of imperial power and mysticism!
