(My new book, "The New Book," has been released. It tells the story of a time traveler's battle against the chosen one of the worlds during the Xin Dynasty.) At the end of the Warring States period, China experienced a great upheaval unprecedented in a thousand years. Some people are born into noble families. Some of them are noblemen. He was reborn as Hei Fu, a lowly soldier in the Qin state, a minor figure in the Qin bamboo slips of Yunmeng. To avoid dying in the ravine and to take control of his own destiny, he struggled to climb upwards. Fortunately, he was born in a great era. The six kingdoms were defeated, and the world was unified! A thousand years of bloodline could not withstand the power of military merit bestowed upon one. The nobles and powerful of the six kingdoms were all trampled underfoot by Qin officials. Hei Fu could only laugh and ask: Are kings and generals born with a special destiny? He conquered the Baiyue in the south, repelled the Xiongnu in the north, forced the Di and Qiang tribes to flee west, and sent warships eastward. Within the six directions, all was the Emperor's land. How did history change under his influence? Qin Shi Huang was destined to die, and the empire would soon be divided. As a Qin official, what choice should one make: to fuel the flames or to try and save the day?

Curator note

The glint of swords and the clang of drums faded into the distance, and the wheels of history rolled into 263 AD, marking the quiet end of an era belonging to heroes. The exact year the Three Kingdoms period ended has been a subject of ongoing debate throughout history—was it 265 AD, when Sima Yi usurped the Wei throne, or 280 AD, when the Western Jin Dynasty conquered Wu? But no one can deny that from the moment Shu Han fell in 263 AD, the tripartite balance of power had already come to an end. A modern-day special police officer dies in the line of duty but unexpectedly finds his soul inhabiting the body of Liu Yin, the Prince of Anping. Originally, he wanted to follow Liu Shan to Luoyang to live a carefree life and forget about Shu, but the blood of the mighty ruler Liu Bei flowing in his veins made him unwilling to sink into such a state. He turned the tide, saved the collapsing empire, made a comeback in Yinping, single-handedly held up the sky, struggled to survive in desperate situations, inherited the Han ancestral rites, wiped out the Five Barbarian Tribes, and unified the world. PS: My new book, "The Last Three Kingdoms 2: The Rise of Wei," has started. It's still set in the familiar history of the late Three Kingdoms period. Please support it!
