Luhai Floating Lantern

Hidden between the words of the law are the deepest secrets of this dynasty. Shen Qingzhi, the most humble female official in the Ministry of Punishment, discovered the true appearance of the founding Yonghui Code of Laws in an abandoned warehouse that had been dusty for hundreds of years - the version that was popular in later generations turned out to be a systematic tampering of the original legal meaning. Just one word difference means that fertile land changes hands, dowries become empty, and wronged souls die. She wanted to use this unique book to seek justice for those misinterpreted laws, but she didn't know that she was touching the backlash of the entire privileged class. From the state and county criminal departments to the etiquette and law department, from court debates to scripture banquet lectures, she used her pen as a blade to start a war without smoke between the lines of the law. Xuan Wang Xiao Jue, a lonely minister who was excluded from the reserve position due to "frailty" but had a revolutionary heart, regarded Shen Qingzhi as the key to breaking the situation. "You will be my Lawblade, and I will give you a battlefield where I can redefine the rules." From mutual use to life-and-death support, they challenge the solid legal system side by side. When her opponent dealt a fatal blow and accused her of holding a "false book of the previous dynasty", what awaited her was not only a debate on authenticity before the imperial court, but also a law interpretation conference that would determine the fate of the dynasty for a century. This is a war over the right to interpret the law. If you win, you will open a door for eternity; if you lose, your bones will be gone. Ancient rules are like the sea, and she is the one who holds the lamp and breaks through the waves in the long night!
