Exiled to Lingnan, he narrowly escaped death.
Liu Wu traveled through Chengdu, where he was an exiled county magistrate in the fourth year of Zhenguan. He wore shackles on his feet and a gold seal on his neck. In front of him was the barbaric Lingnan wilderness where miasma was rampant. The escort officer was ordered to kill him on the road. Feng An, the king of Lingnan, treated the refugee as an animal. There was an invisible hand controlling his fate in Chang'an City. But he is not afraid - he was a top criminal investigation expert in his previous life, with the entire history of the Tang Dynasty in his mind, and a causal eye that can only see emotional remnants. He thought he would be able to turn around by solving a few cases through reasoning, until he saw a kind of irrigation water tanker in Lingnan that should not have appeared in the Zhenguan period, and a secret letter that read "Welcome to the Second Tang Dynasty" was handed to him. Someone had been here before him. And that person has lived in this world for six years.
The chessboard has been laid out and the pieces are in their places. Liu Wu has only one choice - to change from a chess piece to a chess player.
