Your Highness, please stop running away. This old servant is getting on in years, and it’s time you took the throne.
The Tang dynasty’s realm had teetered for a century before finally falling to Quan Zhong amid the bloodshed of countless Tang officials. Thus began an age of great upheaval. Warlords and feudal lords rose and fell one after another, and no one spoke of the Tang dynasty anymore.
But this world has never been short of people with fire in their hearts.
Whether driven by personal ambition, the pursuit of power, or concern for the people, they never fear death.
What they lack is someone who knows full well that it’s hopeless, yet does it anyway: someone willing to take up the blade.
