In the twelfth year of Jianxing, Zhuge Liang died at Wuzhangyuan, and all Shu Han mourned.
Everyone wept for the chancellor’s passing. Everyone lamented that A Dou was beyond saving and that Shu Han would have no future.
Only Liu Shan knelt before the assembled officials, sobbing as if his heart were breaking. But when he turned away in the depths of the palace, a sinister smile crept across his face.
No System, no cheats: all he has is a calculating, patient heart.
He plays the fool and ignores state affairs, letting the ministers argue while secretly placing trusted men in key positions, eliminating rivals, and laying his plans step by step.
Surrounded by powerful enemies, with Shu Han weak and vulnerable?
No matter. He can endure what ordinary people cannot and do what ordinary people dare not.
To keep his foundations secure, he can publicly bow before Sun Quan of Eastern Wu and address him as his father, enduring the ridicule of the whole world.
To build up his strength in secret, he conceals his sharp edge, watches Jiang Wei campaign north, and quietly accumulates power.
When Wei is torn by internal strife and the realm falls into chaos,
the Anle Duke who spent his days grinning and joking will suddenly cast off his disguise!
“Everyone says I, the emperor, am an A Dou beyond saving.
Little do they know, I have long had the whole realm in my grasp.”
He plays the pig to eat the tiger, biding his time for years.
Watch as the calculating Liu Shan changes Shu Han’s fate of destruction and unites the three kingdoms through his own efforts!
Not bad, worth a look
