After helping the young emperor and guarding the frontier for more than a decade, Han Mo had thought he would spend the rest of his life protecting his emperor's realm.
But he never expected Emperor Qin to defy ancestral law by making a foreign woman his consort, and eventually even to consider placing the eldest prince, who had foreign blood, on the throne as crown prince.
Who could stand for that? After returning to the capital, Han Mo was disillusioned. He fought his way out of the city and decisively raised an army in rebellion.
The vassal kings could no longer suppress their excitement and also rose in rebellion. Unfortunately, Emperor Qin outmaneuvered them, and their uprising ended in failure. With no other choice, they sought refuge with Han Mo.
In the end, Han Mo led his army all the way to the capital.
King Yan rode a tall horse, holding a bloodstained saber. With heartfelt sincerity, he called out to the capital:
"Nephew, it's your Fourth Uncle! I've come to see you. Hurry up and open the gates! Fourth Uncle will treat you to a feast!"
King Qi, covered in blood and holding a "tanghulu," wore a sinister smile as he called out to the capital:
"Nephew, your Fifth Uncle has come to see you too. Open the gates! Fifth Uncle has something good for you to eat as well."
King Liang, dressed in a pristine white robe, gazed heroically at the capital and called out:
"Nephew, your Sixth Uncle is here too. I brought nothing but myself, and a big slap, your favorite! Hurry up and open the gates!"
