I was an elite operative, but my soul ended up in Zhao Zilong, fighting for his life at Changban Slope.
I held Liu Shan in my arms, yet I knew how Shu Han would fall: the Five Tiger Generals cut down, Zhuge Liang's star setting at Wuzhang Plains, and Liu Shan, the helpless ruler, surrendering with a laugh: "It's quite pleasant here."
Why should I, Zhao Yun, die alongside this doomed emperor?
A mad idea took shape amid the enemy ranks.
In an abandoned village, I used my own hidden son to replace Liu Bei's only heir.
From then on, the child I carried back bore the blood of the Zhao family. The real Liu Shan was left behind in the flames.
I helped my "Liu Shan" seize the throne, cleared Guan Yu and Zhang Fei out of his way, and outlasted Zhuge Liang. Step by step, I changed the ruling house of Shu Han!
At the coronation, the new emperor whispered in my ear, "Father, please take the throne."
The entire court turned around in shock, only then realizing that the realm had long since taken the Zhao surname!
