In the Great Yin Dynasty, imperial power wanes. A twelve-year-old young emperor ascends the throne, with Empress Dowager ruling behind the curtain and his uncle, Regent Prince Li Yu, holding power. Noble clans like Cui and Lu dominate key positions at court, while Jianghu forces such as the Dark Pavilion and Blood Sword Alliance operate in both official and civilian spheres. The world is a chessboard: the Regent schemes to usurp the throne, clans maneuver for influence, and the Pavilion plots in secret—all are pawns, and even those who think they hold the reins are trapped in the game.
