Silent Judge

In the last years of Jiayou's life, Gu Kaizhi, the general magistrate of Hangzhou, took over a bizarre murder case - the weaver Zhou Lang died suddenly in the middle of the night, and strange golden lines appeared under his skin, like silk. He is taciturn and judges cases like a god, and is known as the "silent judge". As the second and third corpses appeared, he traced a secret that had been hidden for 19 years: an evil technique called "Silkworm Feeding Technique", which uses living people to cultivate silkworms. From Hangzhou to Bianliang, from Renzong to Shenzong, a shocking conspiracy spanning three dynasties surfaced. The powerful forces in the capital, the dark transactions hidden in the palace, and the truth about his father's unjust death - all clues point to the same answer. Gu Kaizhi must pry open the silence of history and speak the final verdict for those souls who cannot speak.
