Zhao Wujiu, the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty in the Zhou Dynasty, could read a thousand words at the age of three, decided on border policies at the age of seven, and entered the court at the age of fourteen. He was a humble gentleman and as gentle as jade. The only thing he wanted to do in his life was to lie on the observation deck of Prince Jin's Mansion, drink tea, look at the clouds, and watch the chess game. Unfortunately, an imperial edict pushed him into the center of the whirlpool - the Marquis of Xiliang and Beiming Shrine forced the palace to cancel the engagement on the charge that he was "weak and unworthy of the peerless talent of the goddess of the shrine." On the day the engagement was broken off, the whole city was in an uproar and he became the laughing stock of the entire Chang'an.
On the night when something unexpected happened and the prince's golden seal was stripped away, Zhao Wujiu accidentally touched the broken monument next to the ancestral temple and awakened his natal talent "Speech Spirit" - every word he said was connected to the fate of the dynasty, and any words that came true could be turned into physical authority. For a time, it was said that the golden dragon soared into the sky, and the fortune of the dynasty surged; thousands of scrolls of Taoism became soldiers, and strange phenomena suddenly appeared in the Confucian Temple. He no longer lay dormant, played chess like a gentleman, broke the game with venomous words, had a gentle left hand, and a sword in his right hand. From then on, he embarked on a counterattack road from "the good-for-nothing prince" to "the lord of all ruins".
But just as he stirred up the storm and gradually approached the core of the Chang'an chess game, the indifferent voice above the palace told Zhao Wujiu a more terrifying truth - this dynasty was just an abandoned piece in a larger chess game. And he was the only variable that the chess player had been waiting for for three thousand years.
