   Opinions on Shi Le have always been polarized. Ancient Han Chinese scholars and officials often viewed him as a "barbarian" leader who "brought chaos to China," while modern historians take a more objective view of his historical role. In fact, Shi Le was a far more complex figure: initially a ruthless warrior who showed no mercy in massacring surrendered soldiers; later a clear-headed politician with a profound understanding of historical patterns; both a cultural imitator, diligently studying Han customs; and a staunch defender of his ethnic identity, consistently maintaining his Jie (Jie) consciousness.

    Whether history is chaotic or not depends entirely on how well I tricked myself into transmigrating into the body of a sickly prince. The system gave me an unparalleled handsome face at the start. I originally wanted to make a living off my looks, but Liu Kun insisted on becoming sworn brothers with me, Zu Ti insisted on dueling with me, and Yang Xianrong insisted on sleeping with me. Sima Yue wanted to use me as cannon fodder? I retaliated with a "barbecue tactic" to suppress bandits and rack up military merits. Shi Le wanted to kill me? I stood on the bridge and shouted: "You!
