Description

Emperor Ying Changchuan, the Great Founder of Zhou: Known for ending chaos and expanding borders as a “traitorous minister,” he established harsh laws impacting millennia, his life a mix of achievements and faults. Thousands of years after his death, he still divides opinion, earning both fervent admiration and intense criticism, truly one of the most controversial figures in history. In a museum a millennium later, Jiang Yuxun, a vocal critic, remarks, “Ying Changchuan’s relentless militarism and grandiose conquests must have made life unbearable for the common people of his time.”

No sooner had he spoken, than he found himself transported to a banquet, boldly voicing these opinions aloud. … …Beneath the twelve imperial crowns, the man from the history books looked at him with a faint, enigmatic smile: “Would my esteemed minister care to elaborate?”

Knowing Ying Changchuan’s penchant for devising cruel punishments, Jiang Yuxun could only think: Is it too late to opt out now? In the next instant, the usually reticent Jiang Yuxun discovered he was afflicted with a ‘truth-telling’ debuff. Every question Ying Changchuan asked, he answered with unvarnished truth. That day, Jiang Yuxun’s words echoed through the grand hall. All the court officials were stunned into silence, everyone certain that he had sealed his own fate.
