"Blood Inkstone as Evidence" is a masterpiece that subverts the tradition of investigating the case of Gong Bao. It retains the core image of Bao Qingtian who is "impartial and selfless, solving cases like a god", and puts him into a dark stage that combines the historical secrets of the Song Dynasty, oriental fantasy elements and psychological suspense.
The whole book uses the "Blood Jade Seal Case" as a dark thread throughout. Through more than ten independent and related strange cases, it peels off a dynastic curse that spans twenty years, and constructs a "Dark Universe of the Song Dynasty" that is both magnificent and terrifying.
In the novel, every case is not only a crime, but also a shocking mystery involving the blood of the royal family, the secrets of the previous dynasty, and the strange arts of the world. The "justice" governed by Mr. Bao often has to make unbelievable and tearing choices between legal principles, human relations and the stability of the country...
