A modern history student transmigrates into the late Han dynasty as Liu Heng, heir to the state of Chen. The Yellow Turban Rebellion erupts, the Han dynasty crumbles, warlords carve up the realm, and the emperor is reduced to a figurehead. Raising an army in the name of his imperial lineage, Liu Heng secures his borders and protects the people, drills and equips his troops, recruits talented advisers, and wins over mighty generals. He neither submits to Cao Cao or Liu Bei nor compromises with Yuan Shao or Lü Bu. He rallies the people under the righteous cause of the imperial clan and, with a vision ahead of his time, expands his influence in every direction. He purges the court, secures Guanzhong, and brings the warlords to heel, ending the Three Kingdoms chaos and restoring four centuries of Han rule. He becomes the true ruler chosen by Heaven in the Three Kingdoms era.
