The Sound of Inkstone at Night

Dayao's three hundred years of prosperity have long been a dream hanging on a dangerous cliff. The aristocratic family monopolizes the court, the undercurrent of the prince's seizure of the heir is turbulent, and the ancient legacy lurks behind the scenes, controlling the three-hundred-year cycle of dynasty reincarnation, and the rise and fall of the dynasty are all a chess game. Shen Yan, a modern visitor whose soul has traveled to another world, has been hiding in the countryside of Qingzhou for seventeen years. I wanted to study, drink tea, and live a peaceful life away from the world, but I was forcibly dragged into the capital game of life and death by a piece of imperial summons. The master gave him a sapphire inkstone and warned him not to lose his true intentions when entering the game. On the road ahead, the prince is wooing him, the aristocratic family is wary, the masters of the world are testing him, and the Zhenwu Division is secretly monitoring him. All the chess players want to turn him into a pawn for their own use. Wen Ke can discern laws and resolve cases, stirring up trouble in the court; Wu can hide his edge to control the enemy, and overcome the confusion of the rivers and lakes. Shen Yan did not vote for the prince, did not attach himself to the second prince, did not worship the aristocratic family, and did not abide by the reincarnation fate of the ancient legacy. Everyone in the world is a pen and ink, but he is the one who is willing to be the one who holds the inkstone. With a single act of bravery, he broke through the eternal cycle of reincarnation.
