The Top Scholar's Quest to Clear His Mother's Name

share time: 2025-12-21 12:30:35

Lin Zhao, a poor scholar, witnessed his mother hanged for a false accusation of adultery and murder as a child. Vowing to 'clear her name in life or avenge her in death,' he studied fiercely for a decade and became the top scholar. Returning home to reopen the case, he finds the former judge is now the prime minister, witnesses are missing or have recanted, and the 'adulterer' in the accusation has become the Minister of Justice. When he closes in on the truth with a half jade pendant left by his mother, the prime minister frames him for 'disrespecting the throne'—even the orphan girl his mother saved suddenly accuses him of 'forging evidence.' Risking his title and life, Lin Zhao fights to tear through the 20-year fog of blood: Is it the powerful covering the truth, or is someone more afraid of it than the killer?
