At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the sound of silk and bamboo in Gusu Terrace hid the danger of national subjugation - Wu Wang Fu Chai (Ji's surname Wu) was obsessed with hegemony, Bo Pei was dictatorial, Wu Zixu cried blood and remonstrated, and Gou Jian at the foot of Kuaiji Mountain was lying on his back, tasting courage, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.
A graduate student in the Department of Modern History accidentally passed through his soul and became the most marginalized third son of Wu State (Ji's surname is Wu). The original body was weak, the mother-in-law lost power, her brother-in-law, son-in-law (a member of Bo Pu's gang) pressed hard, and the country of Yue made a secret plan. Even the daily decoctions were mixed with chronic poisons.
It was a dead end at the beginning, but he broke through it with modern knowledge: he knew poisonous weeds, adjusted his body, and enlisted the old eunuch Shi She as his eyes and ears; he used astronomical knowledge to help his mother and concubine regain the Sacred Heart and gain a firm foothold in the palace; he improved brocade craftsmanship to accumulate wealth, and secretly trained private soldiers; he also saw through the Yue Kingdom conspiracy behind Xi Shi's bewilderment, and used his plan to bury the counter-insurgent pawns.
From the behind-the-scenes profits of the Battle of Ailing to the impromptu decision of the Huangchi Alliance, he worked step by step, taking advantage of Wu Zixu's death to recruit old ministers, overthrow Bo Pi and take control of the government, and finally launched a coup in Gusu Terrace, imprisoned Fu Cha, and ended the rebellion of his brother-in-law.
After that, he unified the Wu Kingdom under the name of "Wu Gong", improved the Wu army's tactics, defeated Gou Jian in the Battle of Lize, and incorporated the Yue Kingdom into the territory; he defeated Qi and defeated the Jin Dynasty in the northern expedition to the Central Plains, and held the emperor of Zhou to order the princes; he attacked Qiang Chu in the west, conquered Yan and Zhao in the north, conquered Bashu, finally defeated Hangu Pass and destroyed Qin, ascended the throne in Gusu and proclaimed himself emperor, establishing a unified Wu Dynasty spanning the north and south.
This is a fate-defying epic from a secret fight in the palace to a struggle for hegemony in the world - when the marginalized princes who know the direction of history take hold of the power, the war in the late Spring and Autumn Period will eventually burn out a brand new path.
