Chen Jingzhi traveled through time.
Chuan became the only single seedling in Zhenbei Hou Mansion after all the loyal people.
When he was ten years old, his father and brother died in battle, and his mother cried blindly. Civil and military officials from all over the dynasty came to express their condolences, saying "loyalty for a long time", but their eyes were full of greed - the military power, fiefdom, and connections of the Hou Mansion, which one of them did not covet?
Chen Jingzhi knelt in front of the mourning hall, knowing clearly in his heart: In this cannibalistic world, his lone seedling would either rot into mud and be trampled on by others, or grow into a towering tree that everyone could only look up to.
He chose the third path - to become a puddle of mud before growing into a big tree.
From then on, there was a good-for-nothing playboy in the capital who was "famous all over the world". He raped a civilian girl, who was an informant planted by his political opponents, and was instigated to rebel that night and became his backbone; he spent a lot of money and lost all his family property, all he lost was false accounts, but what he won back was half of the court's leverage.
He is arrogant and domineering, bullying men and dominating women, and does all kinds of evil.
Everyone believed it.
No one knew that hidden in his cuffs was a complete set of military training and steel-making skills brought from modern times.
No one knew that the oiran he "robbed" was helping him manage the world's largest intelligence network.
No one knew that when the beacon fire was ignited in the north and the enemy's 100,000 cavalry moved south, the young man who was fighting chickens and lackeys in the capital was sitting behind the scenes, mobilizing three groups of extraordinary troops with a secret letter.
Someone asked him, why didn't he stand upright?
He just smiled.
"I can kill up to a thousand enemies in the open. In the dark, I want a different chess game in the world."
