History Livestream: Spoiling the Future from the Start and Taking Ancient Times by Storm

[History + On-Screen Comments]

The sky screen goes live, and people of the past lose it

History blogger Lin Jing starts a stream: “A Discussion of Qin Dynasty Terracotta Warriors’ Hairstyles!”

An opening salvo, and the Qin Dynasty is already rattled.

“Let’s talk about the second-generation rulers of various dynasties.”

The Qin Dynasty is rattled all over again.

“The Four Great Inventions series: today, we’re talking about gunpowder!”

Qin alchemists rush to buy saltpeter and sulfur, and fireworks light up the skies over Xianyang.

Cai Lun of the Han Dynasty proudly shows off his new paper, only to see a comment float by: “Cai Hou paper? It’s too rough even to wipe your butt!”

Emperor Taizong of Tang watches the sky screen play the Incident at the Xuanwu Gate and awkwardly covers his face. “Can we skip this part?”

The livestream of Zhao Kuangyin persuading his generals to surrender their military power over wine is awkward!

Kublai Khan spams rocket gifts: “Streamer, tell us about the Yuan Dynasty’s territory!”

Zhu Yuanzhang proudly displays his edict abolishing the chancellorship, only for a comment to float by: “Your descendant hanged himself at Coal Hill, you know~”

Qianlong showers the stream with gifts: “Long live the Great Qing for ten thousand generations!”

Lin Jing slurps instant noodles. “Folks, next time: a ranking of the most handsome warriors of the Three Kingdoms!”

The big shots across every era instantly tense up.
