The Grandmaster Strategist, a romance novel by Follow The Crowd (随波逐流), is set in an alternate historical period decades after the collapse of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Though the world remains in turmoil, a glimmer of hope for reunification exists.
The story centers on Jiang Zhe, also known as Suiyun, a man from a humble background. After a decade of diligent effort, he successfully passes the imperial examinations, earning him a position as a scholar in the Hanlin Academy. Unbeknownst to him, this achievement draws him into the intense succession dispute plaguing the Great Yong Dynasty.
Jiang Zhe finds himself entangled in a web of conspiracies, machinations, and countless battles of both physical prowess and intellectual cunning. Initially, his desire is to steer clear of court politics. However, circumstances dictate otherwise, and he ultimately has no choice but to become involved. With no other recourse, Jiang Zhe is compelled to "follow the crowd," immersing himself in the chaotic political landscape.
In this treacherous world, Jiang Zhe leverages his exceptional intelligence and profound knowledge. His primary objective is to secure a stable environment for himself and his companions, ensuring their survival amidst the pervasive intrigue. The narrative promises to showcase the downfall of nations, the rise of influential figures, and the astonishing sight of even supreme martial artists deferring to the quiet pronouncements of this seemingly frail and unassuming scholar. This tale explores themes of romance, tragedy, martial arts, action, drama, and mature content.
