"I'm not here to play chess, I'm here to change the rules."
After being transformed into a criminal who had his house confiscated, Gu Qingxian lived in poverty for twelve years.
Until that spring rainy night, he pushed open the door of Prince Jing's Mansion.
Later——
The prince screamed in prison: "Gu Qingxian! How dare you, a poor man from a humble family -"
He wiped his fingertips: "Your Highness, where does the chess player come from?"
The second prince laughed before setting himself on fire: "Do you think Prince Jing won? He is just your next move!"
He smiled slightly: "No, I set the new rules."
On the eve of Prince Jing's ascension to the throne, the hand he held trembled: "Qingxian, what do you want?"
He looked at the thousands of lights outside the palace gate:
"Children from poor families no longer have to kneel down to study."
To play chess today, there is no distinction between family status.

He planned a country for him, he planned a new era for him.
