Description
In 13th-century China, a young servant's quest for justice becomes a journey of self-discovery. When a mentally-disabled boy is found dead in a small town, all signs point to his mother as the killer. But as Liu Yong delves deeper into the mystery, he uncovers a complex web of prejudice and corruption that threatens to destroy him. As Yong navigates the treacherous landscape of the Capital, he must confront his own limitations and the harsh realities of a strict, hierarchical society. With the help of an enigmatic group of outcasts, he embarks on a perilous quest for truth, one misstep away from disaster. In this gripping tale of loyalty, honor, and redemption, Yong's search for justice becomes a journey of self-discovery that will challenge everything he thought he knew about himself.
