In 1967, the last emperor Puyi breathed his last on his hospital bed. Throughout his life, he was burdened with the shackles of the "King of Subjugation". The humiliation of the Manchukuo Imperial Palace and the whispers in the botanical garden became his eternal nightmare.
Unexpectedly, God was merciful and allowed him to be reborn in the late autumn of the third year of Xuantong - a critical moment for the Qing Dynasty when Yuan Shikai's Beiyang troops were approaching the city and Empress Dowager Longyu wanted to sign an abdication edict. This time, there was no cowardice in the eyes of the twelve-year-old boy emperor, only the determination to rise from the ashes.
He refused to sign the edict to abdicate, denounced princes and envoys, and swore to his ancestral homeland to change the fate of the country. He sold the treasures in the palace to pay for the army, went to the Tiger God Camp in person, and bowed to the soldiers with the dignity of an emperor. , Using sincerity and blood to awaken the scattered military spirit; he not only has to fight against Yuan Shikai's forced palace, but also guard against the covetous powers of the great powers, and he also has to tear a crack in the decadent Qing court to find a way out for China.
From the dragon trapped in the shallows to the iron bones protecting the mountains and rivers, the reborn Puyi is no longer a puppet at the mercy of others, but an iron-blooded emperor who single-handedly leverages history and vows to defend the territory of his ancestors and protect the people of the world. This road to change his destiny was full of thorns and murderous intentions, but he never flinched in his steps.

Although Puyi was an emperor, his life was full of tragedies. In this book, Puyi revitalized China and was proud of it.
