In the 60th year of the Da Yao calendar, the empire of Founding III has shown signs of decline. The old emperor suffered a serious stroke, each of the four great nobles had his own agenda, and the four prince brothers were hostile to each other. After a palace coup, the prince was deposed, and the second prince raised an army to "Qingjun's side". From then on, the empire slipped into the abyss of division and war.
The iron cavalry of the Northern Wilderness went south, and Shenjing fell; the King of Chu in southern Xinjiang proclaimed himself emperor and split the soil to establish himself; the leader of the prairie wolf, Tuoba Lang, unified the tribes and established the Wolf Dynasty, trampling the Central Plains with iron hoofs. Xie Mingyuan, a loyal minister in the old days, devoted himself wholeheartedly, while the young emperor Yu Wenzhao struggled to move south amid the ruins.
In troubled times heroes emerge. At the foot of Mount Tai, Chen Che, who was born as a refugee, gathered his troops and rose up in blood and fire under the banner of "driving out the wolves and restoring China". He destroyed the Lang Dynasty, pacified Xiliang, and conquered Jiangnan, and finally proclaimed himself emperor on behalf of Yao, ending a century of war.
This is a story about power, loyalty and betrayal. Disputes between powerful families, brothers fighting each other, conflicts between Hu and Han, and counterattacks from poor families - when the old order collapses, only those who value both benevolence and iron fist can create a new dynasty.
