Fan Shu, after the Ming Dynasty, was a loyal man. In his previous life, he offended Quan by outspokenly admonishing him and was imprisoned. Finally, he died with hatred in the rebel army of the "Tumubao Incident". He witnessed the shameful loss of the empire's elite and the capture of the emperor. When he opened his eyes again, he returned to eight years before the tragedy, when he was still the young man full of passion but understated. In this life, he is no longer a foolish young man with empty strategies but nowhere to put them to use. With his accurate prediction of the future, he transformed into the "Black Lotus" and began a life-and-death game against time. He dealt with the eunuch group, corrupt civil servants, and border town warlords, taking advantage of the information gap to make plans in advance and plan every step of the way. Make friends with generals who have been buried by history, save Zhongliang who should have died in vain, and in the undercurrent of the court, use the art of war as an edge to quietly weave your own power network. His goal is clear and cruel: he must obtain enough power to reverse the situation before the beacon smoke of Tumubao ignites. This is a huge gamble on the fate of the country, and the opponent is a huge vested interest group and the wheel of history rolling forward. Can Fan Shu use the wisdom of rebirth to break through this fog, take charge of the army, turn the tide, and avoid the catastrophe that would overturn the country? Revenge and redemption, intrigue and passion, are all here.
