Lu Wensheng traveled through time.
Traveling back in time to a restaurant bartender in Lin'an City of the Southern Song Dynasty, he was pushed to the ground and beaten by debt collectors at the beginning.
But he discovered a secret - he could "hear" the truest words in other people's hearts.
[Greed] "There should be some oil and water in this man's body"
[Fear] "Don't let him find out there is something wrong with the accounts."
Killing Intention"Send him on his way tonight"
Goldfinger? No, it's a double-edged sword.
He uses his mind-reading skills to observe people's emotions in restaurants and rises step by step; he predicts in advance in official circles and can get both sides;
But he also heard some things he shouldn't have heard——
Powerful officials want to kill him and silence him; allies are ready to betray him at any time; even the people he has saved may be thinking, "Why is he not dead yet?"
Lu Wensheng soon understood a truth: in this era where everyone wears a mask, "knowing too much" is a sin in itself.
And what he can do is to be one step earlier than everyone else - to overturn the chess game.
