Qin Chuan, a university history student, was on his way to the library when a sudden distortion in space and time sent him transmigrating to the Qin dynasty, at the dawn of a unified empire.
At the brink of despair, the History Companion System awakened.
From then on, he became the sole witness to the long ages of Chinese history. Beginning with the Great Qin, he journeyed across a thousand years, witnessing the great dynasties of Han, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing.
He saw firsthand the splendor and prosperity of unified empires, and experienced the chaos of a divided land, with wars raging and human hearts turning treacherous.
He watched emperors rise and fall, great clans flourish and decline, ordinary people endure displacement and heartache, and dynasties cycle through their rise and fall.
He sought neither imperial power nor conquest, but walked the mountains and rivers of ancient dynasties as an observer.
Traveling alongside the years, he witnessed the rise and fall of empires, read the whole story of the world’s vicissitudes, and saw through the glory and decline of dynasties.
