In the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the clans were divided, and human lives were like grass under the imperial power. King Li Ying of Qi's mother and concubine died young and came from a humble background. He and his younger brother Li Hao were humiliated by the harem and the prince. Even the evil slaves in the palace dared to withhold money and food and use their power to bully the master. After enduring the humiliation and burden for more than ten years, he awakened with the system, unlocked high-level martial arts, controlled five hundred black-robed dead soldiers with hooks and sickles, and secretly planned the chess game.
First, he cleared away the internal thieves and established a powerful palace, and then personally killed the King of Shu, Li Min, in a high tower. Then, with the help of the killer Xue Yiren, he killed King Cao and the thirteenth prince in succession. Three murders shocked the city of Chang'an. The Detective Division searches the city, and Emperor Li Shimin harbors suspicions. However, Li Ying retreats in order to advance, using the name of house arrest to clear his suspicions, stirring up trouble in the court amid heavy siege.
He did not ask for the throne in the East Palace, but only asked for ten years of blood debt. Father and son turned against each other, brothers fought each other, and beneath the guise of prosperity there were withered bones. From the idle prince who is trampled upon by others to the avenger who overthrows the imperial power, a bloody conspiracy drama with the world as its chessboard has officially begun.
