Jingtian Split Tower: the Nine Levels of Kunji

The new emperor Lu Chengji ascended the throne, introduced the eight major forces of the previous dynasty into the harem, and ennobled eight "royals". They are not competing for concubines, but the embodiment of eight political ideals: the ruler of order, the sword of family, the eye of freedom, the lamp of equality, the net of hypocrisy, the needle of intrigue, the stele of ethics, and the mirror of nothingness. Yunshao Palace became the ultimate testing ground. From "the transgression of the dragon pattern" to "the entry of the old man into the palace", it seems like a dispute in the palace, but in fact it is a life-and-death confrontation between conservative and radical, etiquette and nothingness. The emperor occupies the ninth level, using the human heart as a chess piece to refine order in dynamic chaos. When intrigues entwine loyalty, and when ideas collide and create sparks, who can dance on the balance beam without falling? What is fought for here has never been the love of the emperor, but the ultimate definition of power and ideas. Lu Chengji sits on the ninth floor, holding the layout, using the human heart as a chess piece and the mountains and rivers as a platform. He needs them to bite each other, check and balance each other, and forge the most stable order out of the dynamic chaos. When intrigues entwine loyalty like vines, and when ideas collide and create sparks of destruction, who can dance on the balance beam without falling into the abyss? Whose ideas can finally penetrate the palace walls and illuminate or engulf this new empire? This is not a war for women, but the most gorgeous, cruel and profound epitome of all power struggles. What is fought for here is never just the love of the emperor.
