    A brief introduction to "The Iron Law Censor" The Yin Dynasty ruled the world with iron laws. The Overwatch Council is like a sword hanging from the ceiling, and under the Haechi totem stand eight iron-faced censors - and Shen Ye is the youngest and most "crazy" among them. He started investigating a corruption case and tore apart the shady story of smuggling in the border town, but he didn't know that he had stepped into a huge network of power and intrigue that had been entrenched in the court for twenty years. Chief Assistant Lin Ruhai covered the sky with his hands, and the imperial power was weak. All those who had touched the truth became corpses in the deep pits of Taihang Mountain. But Shen Ye didn't believe this evil. He brought a blue book of orders unearthed from a deep pit - a relic of Taizu, "Those who hold this order will hunt on behalf of heaven". He knocked on the Desheng Gate under the blade of Yulin Zuowei, forced the chief minister of the dynasty to kneel down in front of the iron stele of the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and uncovered the mystery of the magic weapon that spanned several generations of emperors in the thousand-year underground palace. From a case of embezzlement in a border town to the underground palace secrets that could destroy a dynasty; from the pursuit of the murderer by a lonely censor, to the backbone of the Hachi built by three generations of flesh and blood. This is a lonely battle, a mantis fighting against a chariot, and a relay passed down from generation to generation. "I hope those who come later will have no regrets." What he was investigating was not the case, but the backbone of Da Tao.

    The most powerful person in history is not Emperor Qin and Han Wu, not Emperor Tang Zong and Song Zu, not Genghis Khan Temujin, not Alexander the Great, nor Queen Victoria who created the British Empire on which the sun never sets. Instead, he led his eldest son in the western expedition from the Mongolian grasslands to the city of Vienna and established the capital of Sayin Khan of the Golden Horde. The young Batu accompanied his father Jochi on expeditions in the east and west, and made outstanding achievements, which made Jochi the successor to the Great Khan of Mongolia. However, due to doubts about Jochi's origin, he was always excluded from the line of succession of the Great Khan. Rumors and rumors followed him closely, and he finally died in depression. Batu inherited Jochi's fief, and with his extraordinary talent, he became the commander-in-chief of his eldest son's Western Expedition, leading 150,000 cavalry from the Mongolian grasslands to the city of Vienna. He annihilated the principalities of Russia, captured Hungary, attacked Poland, pushed Moscow to the ground, drank the Danube River, defeated 400,000 European coalition troops with 40,000 cavalry, and destroyed more than 20 countries in seven years. After the death of Ogedai Khan, the kings who conquered the West returned eastward to compete for the throne of Khan. Batu used the remaining power of the Western Expedition to defend the Kipchak grassland and established the vast Golden Horde. He was called Sayin Khan by Europeans and respected as "Batu Tsar" by the Russians at the time. Afterwards, Batu and Mongol Khan Guiyou were at war with each other. When the situation was critical, Guiyou died violently. Batu used thunderous means to support Meng Ge as the Khan and became the talker of the Mongol Empire. Coupled with his status as the powerful Great Khan of the Golden Horde, his power was unparalleled in ancient times and today, making him the most dazzling person at the pinnacle of power in the thirteenth century.

    Reader note

    It is a high-quality book, a hard-core work for men in science and engineering. It is a low-end, high-end, imaginative and slow-burning type. It is a magical, realistic, suspenseful and brain-burning novel. The subject matter is novel and the logic is rigorous. There is no cheat code for the time-travel and rebirth system. The narrative is funny and smooth without watering down. The content covers history, workplace, military, technology, national security, criminal investigation, scheming, murder, as well as high-tech espionage, hacker warfare, and electronic warfare. The ending has a profound twist and is tailor-made for old bookworms. It doesn't look good and I will kill myself to death!
