A Thousand Songs 千宋
The story of an internationally renowned anti-fraud chief inspector with his own moral code, who transmigrates to the late Northern Song dynasty, where the court is full of treacherous officials and the emperor is incompetent. This is neither a tale of conquering the world nor one of iron-fisted rule. Xia says: Might alone cannot dictate everything; intelligence is the foundation of it all. Perhaps this book is all about 40% intelligence, 40% hard work, and 20% luck. P.S. Historical novels have
