The Rise of Dark Chess by Yun Lai Ling

Time traveled to the sixth year of Yong'an in the Dayan Dynasty, and Shen Yao became the son of an exiled prisoner. My father returned to his place of origin from exile, but his health was no longer good. The entruster brought a letter home, just one sentence: "Yao'er, live on. Don't look back." But he couldn't turn back. There is no system, no grandpa. He only has the historical vision of a modern person and the little screenwriting skills he accumulated from making short plays. Starting from Qipin County Magistrate, he openly compiled local chronicles in the Hanlin Academy, but secretly used the badge of the Suzheng Secretary to investigate old cases. The bank robbery case, the fraud in the examination room, the border food and grass being subcontracted... If you continue to investigate one by one, the closer you get to the truth, the more people want to shut him up. Only when he touched the edge of the chessboard did he realize that all the clues were connected to the same path. But that path is already on his chessboard! Machiavellianism is the shell, human feelings are the bones. There are court games and character warmth. Stable update in progress...
