Shen Buyan, a graduate student in modern psychology, accidentally traveled to Hongwu seven years in the Ming Dynasty and became a down-and-out Taoist priest who could not even receive incense money.
What he didn't expect was that when he traveled through time, he was given a golden finger called "Tian Ting" - he could understand anyone's inner thoughts.
The old catcher of Yingtianfu Yamen said, "The little Taoist priest can lend me a step to speak", but in his heart he thought, "This young man can be used as a scapegoat";
The high-ranking officials in the court appeared to be courteous to the corporal, but in their hearts they scolded him as "where does the wild Taoist dare to steal the limelight";
The most outrageous thing was that when he was pretending to count in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, he heard the emperor's inner voice——
"If this kid dares to lie to me, I will behead him at Meridian Gate. But if he is really capable..."
Zhu Chongba paused and his heart sank:
"Then he is the sharpest knife in my hand."
Shen Buyan's back was soaked instantly.
From then on, while relying on his mind-reading skills to walk on thin ice among the powerful, he struggled to survive under the watchful eye of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Solving unsolved cases, fighting corrupt officials, uncovering treacherous plots... Every time he "calculated" the truth, he actually heard it from other people's heads.
But his biggest secret, he never dared to tell anyone -
He could read the hearts of all the people in the world, but he dared not read the true thoughts of the Ninth Five-Year Master.
Because he vaguely heard a terrifying echo deep in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart:
"I know you can hear me."
