Ying Zheng, the first emperor of the ages, was poisoned by Zhao Gao on a sand dune. Four hundred years later, his soul passed through the world and he became the most aggrieved puppet emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty - Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie.
In the fourth year of Jian'an, the deep palace of Xuchang was reduced to a prison. Cao Cao used the emperor to control the princes, the court was full of Cao's party's eyes and ears, and the medicine in the palace contained poison. His nineteen-year puppet career was met with death at every step. The First Emperor, who once swept across the world and ruled the nine provinces, now has only a weak mortal body. He can only hide his imperial edge, pretend to be cowardly, endure humiliation, and use a mask to survive in the environment of tigers and wolves.
Inside the palace, murderous intent is everywhere. The person who delivers the medicine has evil intentions, the people who supervise the country are watching with eager eyes, and the old officials of the clan have their own evil intentions. Only the mysterious person secretly delivers the message, the guardian of the Qin Dynasty's mausoleum quietly appears, and the secret of the death of Qin comes to light. Ying Zheng remained calm and made plans in a desperate situation: purge the traitors in the inner court, collect the sharp swords of poor families, train secret pro-armies, and quietly build up the confidence to make a comeback under Cao Dang's eyes.
The war in Guandu gradually started, and Cao Cao led his army to personally conquer the city. Undercurrents surged in the city of Xuchang. Dong Cheng made a hasty coup, Cao Hong forced the palace to commit regicide, and all forces were ready to take action. When the puppet mask was completely torn to pieces, Emperor Qin's Dragon Soul was completely awakened. As Emperor of Han, he carried out the First Emperor's plan and reversed the course of events in troubled times.
Four hundred years ago, the soul of Qin was sent to Han Zuo, and once the dragon awakened, Jian'an was shaken. In this dead game where the world is the chessboard, can he break through and be reborn, regaining control of the country?
