Gritty British Crime

The Eternal Nawab: Saifullah's Divine Empire

In 1751, a dying empire is reborn through the soul of a man out of time. Saifullah-ud-Doula, the newly crowned Nawab of Bengal, is not who he seems. Born with the memories of a 21st-century Bangladeshi scholar, he awakens to a world on the brink of catastrophe: the British East India Company’s shadow looms over Bengal’s riches, his court simmers with betrayal, and history’s tides are poised to drown his people in blood and subjugation. But Saifullah refuses to let fate repeat itself. Armed with knowledge of the future—and the unshakable resolve of a man who has already died once—he vows to forge a new destiny. With his fiery cousin Siraj-ud-Daula as his loyal sword arm, Saifullah launches a revolution. He modernizes Bengal’s crumbling armies with flintlock rifles and guerrilla tactics, outmaneuvers the British in cutthroat trade wars, and ignites an industrial renaissance with steam-powered looms and steel mills. His vision? A unified Indian subcontinent under an enlightened Islamic empire, where science and faith coexist, and where Bengal’s prosperity rivals—then surpasses—the British Empire itself. But ambition breeds enemies. Mir Jafar, a scheming noble, plots with Robert Clive to poison Saifullah’s reforms. Conservative clerics decry his "non-Islamic" machines, while Hindu kings and Maratha warlords eye his growing power with suspicion. Even Siraj’s loyalty wavers as Saifullah’s methods grow ruthless—taxing aristocrats into oblivion, manipulating allies, and sacrificing thousands to build railways and telegraph lines decades ahead of schedule. As Saifullah races against history, he battles not just colonial greed, but the weight of his own conscience. Can a man who remembers the horrors of Partition and poverty truly unite a fractured land? Or will his quest to save Bengal become the very tyranny he sought to destroy?

First crime record

Protagonist: Huang Zhong: Male, 17 years old at the beginning of the story, in the critical period of youth rebellion. He is thin, with slightly messy short hair, and his eyes are often stubborn and confused. Because he grew up in a repressive family environment for a long time, he is sensitive and has a strong self-esteem. He usually wears simple T-shirts and jeans, and there are occasionally some stains on his clothes, which is a small portrayal of his unruly life. He lives with his parents in a residential building in an old community. The small and dim room carries his countless sleepless nights. The walls of the room are covered with posters of his favorite rock bands, which is his yearning for freedom. Key characters: Father: Male, in his forties, an ordinary factory worker, busy all day for the family's livelihood. Long-term fatigue makes him slightly hunched, and his face is full of traces of time. He is not good at speaking and has serious communication barriers with Huang Zhong. When Huang Zhong rebels and makes mistakes, he always treats him in a simple and rough way, which also deepens the gap between father and son. Mother: Female, also in her forties, is an ordinary housewife with a gentle but somewhat cowardly personality. Faced with the conflict between her husband and son, she often feels powerless and can only cry secretly. She always manages the big and small affairs of the family, trying to maintain this shaky home with silent efforts. Best friend: Male, about the same age as Huang Zhong, a boy with a generous personality and a strong sense of friendship. He is tall and strong, with two deep dimples when he smiles, giving people a sunny and cheerful feeling. He and Huang Zhong met on the street and experienced many rebellious days together. When Huang Zhong was in danger, he always stood up without hesitation. The injury that time to protect Huang Zhong became an important opportunity for Huang Zhong's life transformation.
