Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms: Auditor in Troubled Times

Gu Yan, the financial audit director in his previous life, traveled through the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the Later Han Dynasty, and became an inconspicuous head of the household department. The original owner died in an assassination, leaving behind half a blood-stained account book, recording a black account of military pay that no one dared to check. If he continues to investigate, he will offend the powerful officials; if he does not investigate, he will be the scapegoat. And this is just the beginning. The Later Han Dynasty was about to fall and the Later Zhou Dynasty was about to rise. Chai Rong was determined to reform, and Zhao Kuangyin was eyeing the world. Civil servants, military generals, the inner court, and vassal towns, everyone is settling accounts. The only thing Gu Yan is good at is auditing, risk control, people understanding and crisis response. He began to investigate the flow of salt and iron from the black account of military pay, from local feudal towns to the center of the court, and gradually became involved in the power game. Gu Yan originally just wanted to survive, but in this troubled world full of betrayal and exchange of interests, he got deeper and deeper into trouble. What he wants to do is to clear up an account and find a way out for himself. In this game of intrigue and interests, one wrong move could cost you your life.
