On the night when the Mad King ascended the throne, flames shot into the sky, and the imperial mausoleum turned into scorched earth. Cen Ye personally set fire to the late emperor's tomb, just to tear apart this man-eating destiny. He was originally a criminal who was demoted to the border, but he was rescued from death row by the mysterious female official Yun Su, who told him that he had the key to change his life. When the powerful officials in the court pretended to be God's will, and when the people knelt down and worshiped the mad king like a god, only Yun Su sneered: "What you are burning is not the mausoleum, but the chains that lock this dynasty." Burning the mausoleum overnight shocked the world. Cen Ye has changed from an abandoned son to a blade in troubled times, while Yun Su hides in the dark and works hard at every step. They don't seek to be emperor, they just want to let this cannibalistic imperial power rot from the root.
