Two souls travel through eight hundred years, one understands history and the other understands intelligence, just to rewrite the millennium of regret that "happily happened in vain".
He is a doctor of history and is familiar with every defeat, every peace negotiation, and the name of every villain in the Southern Song Dynasty.
He is the chief of the National Security Intelligence Section and is good at infiltration, instigating rebellion, and weaving dragnets.
They traveled to the same era, one became Xin Qiji's "uncle", and the other became the richest man in Lin'an.
One is responsible for seeing the direction of history clearly, and the other is responsible for changing the trajectory of history.
From the near-death breakout outside Lingbi City, to the treacherous court games in Lin'an City;
From the creation of an intelligence network from scratch, to the iron horse that destroyed the city on the battlefield of the Northern Expedition.
They want Xin Qiji to stop being a tragic hero who "happens in vain", they want Lu You to stop being a "family sacrifice without forgetting to tell the old man", and they want those names that have shed blood in the history books to have a different ending.
But the inertia of history is more cruel than imagined——
The suspicion of the court, the cavalry of the Jin soldiers, the lack of funds, the traitor's sword...
Every time you move forward, you have to fill it with your life.
When the Blood Book of the Two Saints was transmitted back to the south of the Yangtze River, when Zhao Gou finally gave the nod to the Northern Expedition, when Xin Qiji led his army to attack Huanglong——
They discovered that the biggest enemy may never have been the golden man.
