Clear Guilty Edict

Forty years of Jiajing reign, late autumn in Nanjing. A corpse with a heart replaced by "The Law of the Ming Dynasty" opened the prelude to the "Five Punishments Murder Case". Whipping, rod, disciple, exile, death - every bizarre and murderous case is a bloody mockery of the dynasty's laws. It looks like punishing evil, but it is actually revenge; it looks like lynching, but it refers to the court. Shen Mo, a former royal guard who drinks medicinal wine every night to suppress his inner demons, possesses a secret "red pill" that can overthrow the royal family. Zhao Qingyuan, a Neo-Confucian judge who firmly believes in the supremacy of the law, touches the teeth of the system's cannibalism deep in the files. When the chess pieces discover that they are the chessboard, when the judge becomes the person being judged. They must answer: In this world of cannibalism, should we drink our sins and be silent, or should we light ourselves as candles and shine a light on the boundless shadow under the dragon chair? History is the bones, suspense is the flesh. A Ming Dynasty criminal epic about how sin grows and how it ends.
