[Take the world as a chessboard and all living beings as chess pieces. In this game, thousands of miles of land are being gambled.
In the thirteenth year of Baoda in the Southern Tang Dynasty, Jinling City underwent a sudden change. The Lin family, a family of poets, collapsed overnight, and Lin Muyun, a young man who once cooked wine and discussed poetry by the Qinhuai River, disappeared in the mist.
When he came back, he was already a commoner chess master with peerless chess skills and a huge secret in his heart.
In these troubled times, the Northern Zhou Dynasty was heavily armed with the intention of unification; the southern countries were in a state of intoxication and were in a corner of peace. Lin Muyun enters the game with the chess method, wandering between the treacherous court of the Southern Tang Dynasty, the iron-blooded military camp of the Later Zhou Dynasty, and the peaceful Xiaoting of Wuyue.
He is the chess player lurking in the dark, and every move affects the rise and fall of the country.
Some people say that he is a traitor and a traitor, stirring up war in the world;
Some people say that he is an unparalleled national warrior who brings peace to all generations.
Faced with the betrayal of the former childhood sweethearts, faced with the grace of knowing and finding a hero, faced with the suffering of blood feud day and night.
When the final fog dissipated, Lin Muyun discovered that the real opponent in this chess game that had been played for twenty years was never a mortal, but the rolling historical torrent.
"I wanted to be a spectator, but in these troubled times, no one is allowed to grow old."
