I Work as a Court Censor in the Great Song

What is a taiqian official?

Someone who strokes the dragon beard above and censures the hundred officials below; low in rank but heavy in power, a key pillar of the nation.

The ancestral laws cannot be broken? Then what if they are broken; state officials must not be killed? Then what if they are killed.

My name is Su Liang, courtesy name Jingming, a trainee censor in the Censorate.

I’m known as Su the Heckler, Little Firecracker, and the Hell-Lord of Letters—the number one persuasive remonstrator and fact-based remonstrator in the Great Song.

Having lived two lifetimes, I know the Great Song’s cowardice stems from an illness of thought.

I want, in the name of a censor, to use speech to support Song, to make the ruler domineering, the officials hard-edged, and the whole people martial.

This is a story of a great court hustler brainwashing the Great Song, with heated court politics, loyal ruler-vassal bonds, and tactical scheming at the center. Please read gently and criticize lightly~~~
