What is a censor?
They advise the emperor and call officials to account. Their rank may be low, but their authority is great. They are pillars of the state.
The laws of our ancestors must not be defied? What if they are? Scholar-officials must not be executed? What if they are?
My name is Su Liang, courtesy name Jingming, a trainee censor at the Censorate.
I go by many nicknames: Su the Contrarian, Little Firecracker, and the Brush-Wielding King of Hell. I am the foremost brainwasher and evidence-backed accuser among the censors of Great Song.
Having lived two lives, I know that Great Song's cowardice stems from an illness of the mind.
In the name of the censors, I will use words to strengthen Song, make the emperor domineering, the officials resolute, and the people embrace martial arts.
This is the story of a master manipulator at court brainwashing Great Song. Expect passionate court politics, scheming between ruler and ministers, and battles of wits. Please enjoy, and go easy on me
