[No system] [No cheating] [Survival in troubled times]
In order to buy a birthday gift for his goddess, Zhou Yuan worked the night shift for five days in a row.
On the day he saved enough money, he saw the goddess wearing the same necklace given by others. Urgent fire attacks the heart, and sudden death occurs due to overwork.
When he opened his eyes again, he became Lu Zhao, a clerk on death row who was to be executed tomorrow in Lingwu County Prison in the late Tang Dynasty.
Three hundred stones of army rations disappeared. The county magistrate wanted him to take the blame, the salt merchant wanted him to shut up, and the deputy ambassador wanted to lend him the knife to kill people.
He didn't understand politics, and he couldn't remember who would become emperor in which year at the end of the Tang Dynasty.
But he finally understood one thing: he couldn't survive by trying to please him. The only thing that could save him was the evidence in his hand and the courage to overturn the table.
Starting from a false account, he checks the military rations, fights against the wealthy clans, wins the hearts of the people, and defends the lonely city.
From a death row prisoner to the leader of a party.
