When a modern young man dies, his soul travels across the Three Kingdoms, and becomes Cao Chong, the child prodigy who is famous in history but died at the age of thirteen - and it happens to be the historical node of the night when he died of illness. From this moment on, the original historical trajectory has been completely disrupted. Cao Chong, who was lucky to survive, had to be involved as a child in the center of the cruelest whirlpool of the Wei Kingdom's heir apparent struggle. On one side is his heroic father Cao Cao, who is increasingly jealous but doting on him; on the other is his brother Cao Pi who is kind on the outside but forbearing on the inside, the talented and informal Cao Zhi, and other clans and aristocratic families who are eyeing him.
How will he use the knowledge beyond his time and the wisdom of a "prodigy" to protect himself in the midst of conspiracy and murder? How will he balance the relationship between father and son and the struggle for power, and walk the tightrope between Cao Cao's favor and fear? His existence itself is a huge revision of history. When the "Xiang" prodigy no longer dies young, can he find his own, completely different path in this troubled world?
This is a huge gamble with fate, time, and loved ones. See how Cao Chong, the time-traveler, works step by step in this Jian'an storm, reverses the inevitable situation, and writes his own legend of the Three Kingdoms!
Reader comments
The author writes very carefully, and the novel is well written, but the plot advancement design is not in line with the preferences of most people today. There is too much foreshadowing in the early stage. It would be better if the scenes opposite Cao Pi and Sima appear earlier. Personal opinion...
