In the early years of the Zhou Dynasty, the empress ascended the throne, the aristocratic family was entrenched, and the imperial power fell away.
Eighteen-year-old Su Yan went to Beijing to take the exam. His essays were astonishing, but he was dismissed by the examiner as "wild and rebellious". On the way back home, the family was framed and overturned overnight.
Everyone thought that Su Yan had perished.
No one knows that he holds in his mind the wisdom of an entire era——
Use game theory to dismantle the court, use information warfare to dismantle aristocratic families, and use financial means to reshape the country.
He climbed up from the quagmire and walked step by step to the center of power.
The empress regarded him as the sharpest knife, but she was also afraid that he would become the most dangerous person.
But she didn't know that Su Yan had been playing a game of chess from the first day he entered the capital.
A game of chess that makes the country no longer depend on one person's thoughts and gives power to the system.
When all the opponents fell, when the empress asked him with red eyes, "What do you want?"——
Su Yan smiled.
"I want there to be no other Su Yan in this world."
