Eat Daji's Soft Rice and Create the Rebellion of King Zhou

Su Yan, a scholar from a poor family, was originally a down-and-out scholar in the suburbs of Yinxu. By chance, he was favored by Daji, who entered the palace as a queen. This woman, who was scolded by later generations as "the enchantress who brought disaster to the country," was not just a charmer. She was responsible for the secret mission of the Su clan, and she was already dissatisfied with Emperor Xin's tyranny. Su Yan assessed the situation and was willing to put aside his status. With Daji's protection, he rose from a white-clothed man to an upstart in Chaoge, and lived a life of "eating soft food". On the surface, he is swaying and coveting wealth, but in reality he is hiding great talent and strategy. While using Daji's power to win over people's hearts and accumulate strength, he secretly contacted the loyal and scattered princes who were persecuted by Emperor Xin, and even secretly communicated with Xiqi. He used Emperor Xin's suspicion to eradicate dissidents, relied on Daji's favor to influence the court situation, worked step by step in the gap between the harem and the court, and broke through the game of intrigue and blood. Some people scolded him for being ungrateful and relying on women to gain power; others praised him for judging the situation, being patient and prepared to attack, and using softness to overcome toughness to plan the world. From a "subordinate" who relied on Daji to a troubled hero who stirred up the world, Su Yan used the disguise of "eating soft rice" to set off a storm that overturned the Shang Dynasty. When the horn of the Battle of Muye sounded, and when the fire of Chaoge was lit, he finally tore off his disguise, stood beside Daji, and showed the sharp edge of rebellion against the crumbling Shang Dynasty - this time, what he wanted was not the wealth that depended on others, but the hegemony that changed the world, the peace that ended the troubled times, and even more, he wanted to rule a new world with that woman who was misunderstood by the world.
