"The people are reduced to a lowly status and do not deserve food and clothing, let alone a backbone. This cannot be changed by one person's good deeds." - Ling Zhaoge
"I have seen too many people survive on their knees, and I want to fight for a world where they can live on their feet." - Ling Zhaoge
"If one day this world is no longer hopeless, I will use the sword in my hand to cut off all the shackles." - Ning Ji
"This world is the responsibility of the Xiao family, but the people are not at peace, so I feel sorry for them after all." - Xiao Chengjin
In the last years of Dajing, the emperor was ignorant and the powerful ministers were in dictatorship.
People are divided into three, six or nine grades, and the hierarchy is strict. Some people are hereditary kings, and some people are descended from generation to generation.
Ling Zhaoge was born in the most humble place of Dajing, where he was a surrendered citizen. He had no surname and no roots. He stepped into the whirlpool of the court with a tough body and only wanted to get an inch of his backbone for the surrendered people.
She was born lowly, but when the situation was over, King Dajing could no longer say "The remnants of rebellious ministers and despicable barbarians will have a different heart." This was her lifelong wish.
She was an outsider, but ended up being the one who fell into the trap.
Intention: Break the sinking situation with iron and blood, change the world with one thought
