The Gray Court of War in Troubled Times

Twenty years ago, the Central Plains dynasty lost ground in the north. In order to prevent military disasters and alleviate financial difficulties, and to shirk responsibility for the loss of border defenses, the imperial court secretly "half-sold and half-sealed" several old counties, pastoral roads, and salt wells to several foreign tribes. It also built military towns nearby, blocking grain and trade routes, and deliberately released conflicting atlases and edicts, hoping to make the tribes doubt each other and fight against each other. But all parties quickly figured out the situation. As a result, this borderland that originally belonged to the Central Plains eventually became a gray area where everyone claimed to be right and everyone only took care of half of it - military towns, foreigners, old people, sects, trade routes, Buddhist temples, and witchcraft sites all coexisted with each other for more than 20 years. There are iron cavalry and heavy crossbows here, as well as Buddhist bells and Gu fires; there are knights who enjoy grudges and grudges, and there are also people who govern the world who only care about books and food routes. Experts can fly over walls and walls, and defeat one against a hundred, but they are still afraid of military formations, sieges, and new weapons. In troubled times, no one can change the world with a knife. Seventeen years ago, Qingnidu was silenced on a snowy night, burying a team of grain trucks, a few old files and a group of people who should be remembered by history in the wind and snow. The military town designated it as a grain robbery case, and the court took the opportunity to completely erase the old county and nationality, turning countless border residents into "unregistered persons". Seventeen years later, there was another winter snow in Gray Court, and the missing grain truck reappeared on the river beach. A seemingly ordinary grain robbery case led to the long-standing old case of Qingni. Half a fish charm, a broken boundary monument, a three-tooth box lock, a broken page from a medicine box, a misplaced map, and a bone-buried river beach force several young people from different backgrounds and beliefs together step by step.
