Introduction to the novel "Youth Chronicles of the Song Dynasty"
During the Tiansheng years of the Northern Song Dynasty, the world was peaceful and prosperous on the surface, but in reality there was an undercurrent - the Western Xia and Liao Kingdoms were watching with eager eyes, the party struggle between the DPRK and China became more intense, the souls of the people were crying secretly, and a conspiracy of "immortal disaster" involving the lives of millions of people was quietly brewing. Bao Zheng, a black-faced promoter, pursues the truth with paranoia, but he does not know that behind every murder case lies the struggle of human nature and the game of power.
Bloody words in dry wells, mirror reflections in secret rooms, puppets demanding lives, fireworks eating people... Twenty strange cases were staged in a series, and each case cleverly used physical and chemical mysteries. Every murderer is not a pure evil person, but has unknown difficulties and obsessions. The charming Gongsun Ce, the reckless and loyal Zhan Zhao, the rebellious and stubborn Bao Xiaomei, and Su Qingyuan, who practices medicine under a mysterious pseudonym, became connected and entangled because of the case.
When reasoning collides with human feelings, when justice faces machinations, and when love is involved in conspiracy, they move forward in the fog and grow up in choices. Bao Zheng understands the warmth and warmth of human nature from the "case-handling machine", Su Qingyuan learns love and sacrifice from a cold assassin, and Gongsun Ce becomes brave and responsible from being timid.
The human heart is the law of heaven, and the truth is the kingly way. This path of reasoning that spans the court and the rivers and lakes, interweaves love, hate, life and death, finally reveals the shocking truth of the longevity scam at the cost of blood. Behind Bao Zheng's name in history is a regret of never losing a loved one, and a memory that is engraved in the bone marrow.
