Documents of the Mandate of Heaven

Three hundred years of peace in the Great Yong Dynasty, the capital was prosperous, and the world was conquered. However, no one knows that underneath the peaceful appearance of singing and dancing, monsters eat people, evil gods are sacrificed, aristocratic families control the government, and practitioners take the lives of everyone as their salary. After Shen Yan traveled through time, he just wanted to be a clerk in the Ministry of Justice. Copying files during the day and studying how to resign at night. Until a northern envoy died mysteriously in the archives. The secret room, the faceless corpse, the missing credentials, and the name written in blood by the deceased all point suspicion to Shen Yan. In order to protect himself, he had to enter this strange puzzle. It was also that night that he lit a black life lamp that could illuminate sin and cause and effect. From the envoy's faceless case, to the paper man's murder case; from the shipwreck in the south of the Yangtze River, to the dream shared by thousands of people in the north; from the party struggle in the court, to the resurrection of the gods... Shen Yan stepped into Dayong's darkest secret. Later, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty discovered that the little scribe who could only copy case files for others had become the most unprovoked person in the world. Shen Yan: "I really just wanted to survive at the beginning." Everyone: "So you conveniently sent half of the court to the prison?" Shen Yan: "As we investigate the case, it is inevitable that there will be some accidental injuries."
