Three Kingdoms: The False Emperor Turns Out to Be Lü Bu's Good Son-in-Law

Shen Lingbai wakes up to find herself a refugee in the war-torn Three Kingdoms era.

To stay alive, she disguises herself as a man and boldly heads to Xuzhou, relying on her face, which is identical to that of Emperor Liu Xie.

Watching Liu Bei bow down before her and weep uncontrollably, Shen Lingbai is panicking inside: He actually believes it!

Even more absurdly, she has a marriage contract left behind by her no-good father.

During her flight, she grabs hold of a cool, aloof female general passing by and shouts, “Wife!” Only later does she learn the woman's name is Lü Lingqi, and her father is Lü Bu.

And so Shen Lingbai is forced to lead a double life:

In Shu Han, she is the “fake emperor” who is “dependent on others” yet lavished with care, and whom everyone keeps imagining as a ruler for the ages.

In Bingzhou, she is the “good son-in-law” who points at Lü Bu and calls him an idiot every day, yet is treasured by him.

Cao Cao: The emperor is in Xuchang! Liu Bei, the one you've welcomed is a counterfeit!

The people of the realm: Bah! The one in Xuchang can't even speak clearly. This one in Xuzhou is a brilliant leader. He is the true Son of Heaven!

Shen Lingbai: ...Stop making things up. I just want to know how much longer I can keep this secret identity under wraps.
