The Embroidered Uniform Guard: Grinding for Experience in the Great Ming

After transmigrating into the role of a low-ranking brocade-clad guard, he is handed a dose of poison in the Imperial Prison. As he teeters on the brink of death, the “Martial Arts Enlightenment” System activates. Solve cases and hunt down criminals to earn epiphanies and improve his martial arts.

From an escaped prisoner of the Imperial Prison to an undocumented resident of the Southern City, Lu Yao uses modern forensic thinking to unravel bizarre mysteries. With techniques he creates through the System, he takes up the Embroidered Spring Saber once more, rising from the bottom. Mysterious deaths among refugees, strange disturbances in the ghost market, deadly secrets behind an elixir scandal... One bizarre case after another draws him back into the treacherous world of court and martial heroes.

This is a struggle to survive by solving cases with scientific reasoning, cultivating through a martial arts System, and navigating danger with his knowledge of history. From convict to thousand-household commander, Lu Yao’s blade will carve out a whole new order in this high-martial Ming dynasty.
