The Blade Remains Hot: Post-Di Victory

share time: 2026-01-14 00:33:28

General Lin Shu of Zhenbei repelled 100,000 Northern Di cavalry with 3,000 remaining soldiers. Before he could wipe the blood off his blade, he received the emperor’s death order—court officials framed him for “colluding with the enemy”. His brother Lin Heng, a Ministry of Revenue official, rummaged through treasury accounts to clear his name, only to find the dynasty was rotten: corrupt officials embezzled military pay, refugees wandered starving, and the Di were ready to strike again. When imperial guards surrounded the general’s mansion, Lin Shu looked at the kneeling people (whom he’d risked his life to protect) outside, while Lin Heng rushed over with newly found evidence. In a glance, the brothers understood—one would die to prove innocence and shield the people, the other would sacrifice to uncover the truth and save the dynasty’s last hope. But little did they know, Northern Di scouts were hiding on the city wall, watching this “backstabbing” farce with a sneer. The dynasty’s doomsday had long been sown in the glint of blades.
