Marquis Jing'an

To pacify the world and calm the hearts of the people — that is Jingan. At Jiandu Academy in Jiangdu Prefecture, student Chen Qing is beaten to death. His classmate Shen Yi is inexplicably framed and sentenced, then beaten nearly to death by yamen runners in the county office.

In the cold prison, the wrongfully accused Shen Yi dies, and another strange soul awakens in his body. The two souls merge into one, becoming a brand-new Shen Yi. In the county prison, the new Shen Yi opens his eyes. Before he can even begin to look at this era, he is forced to face a huge problem on his body: a murder case that is almost already settled.

The author has three older books over two million characters each, all alternate-history historical novels.
