In the winter of the first year of Yongkang (167), Luoyang City was shrouded in cold fog. Liu Hong, the Marquis of Jieduting, who was only 12 years old, was welcomed into the Nangong Palace. A few days later, as Emperor Huan Liu Zhi of the Han Dynasty passed away and had no son to succeed him, the edict spread throughout the court and the public. This young man from the Hejian Kingdom was about to reach the pinnacle of imperial power in the Eastern Han Dynasty. And in his body, there has lived a soul from two thousand years later, obsessed with the history of Qin and Han Dynasties.
At this time, the Eastern Han Dynasty was like a giant statue that was gilded on the surface but decayed on the inside: the Dou family, a relative, controlled the government, the undercurrent of the eunuch group was surging, powerful families annexed the land, refugees were everywhere, and the Qiang chaos was still unquenched. When Lin Yue (Liu Hong) opened his eyes, he saw not only the power on the throne, but also a path of destruction from the "Yellow Turban Uprising" to the "Three Kingdoms Troubled Times". He clenched his fists, and with the sobriety of a modern soul and the prophecy of a historian, he was determined to rewrite this fate that was destined to collapse.
