Zhao Heng, the seventh prince of the Great Yan Dynasty, was demoted to the cold palace for three years for a crime. He was poisoned by cold and could not live more than three months. Just as he was dying, the mysterious "Hongmeng Yunchao System" was accidentally activated, requiring him to obtain "Earth Vein Dragon Qi" or "All People's Hearts" within three days in order to survive.
Zhao Heng was left with only one lame old soldier, Chen Jiu. He accidentally opened the "Eye of National Destiny" and discovered that above Chen Jiu's head was a wisp of purple-gold luck that resonated with the "Emperor Star Ziwei" - this taciturn guard's identity was far more complicated than he appeared.
In order to find the support of the people, Zhao Heng ventured to the slave market and used the remaining ten taels of silver to save a young man who was covered with injuries. The young man calls himself "Huo Qubing", his head is red and his killing luck is roaring like a trapped animal. A seemingly compassionate act of kindness caused the system to prompt that the "bond of sincerity" was achieved. Zhao Heng finally understood: the so-called thoughts of all people are not in the temple, but in the sincerity.
After receiving the system reward, he planted rapeseeds, injected luck, and revitalized the deserted palace. At this time, secret reports came from southern Xinjiang - the refugees in three counties revolted, the county guards died violently, and the chieftains joined forces to rebel, but no one in the court dared to clean up the mess.
Zhao Heng seized the opportunity in this vacuum zone and took the initiative to ask for orders from the emperor: "I don't ask for soldiers, horses, food and salary, I only ask for an opportunity. If you can't pacify southern Xinjiang, come and see me!"
The emperor gave him three thousand old, weak and remnant soldiers, and he had to take care of his own food and salary. What seemed like a death mission turned out to be Zhao Heng's only chance of getting out of prison.
