On his first day as Gu Zhao, a penniless scholar, he found Shen Qing—a lame girl huddling in a broken temple with a pale golden heterochromatic left eye. He’d planned to earn fame through the imperial exam, turn their shabby hut into a tile-roofed home, and keep her safe for life. But when he saw examiners taking bribes to push out poor scholars, saw the old wounds on Shen Qing’s legs (inflicted by corrupt officials’ minions), and saw refugees starving at the city gate with no one caring, Gu Zhao crushed his sage books. If the world won’t tolerate a scholar’s purity, he’ll split the filth with a sword—for Shen Qing, for the world, he’ll build a clean realm free of corruption and displacement.
