Born to Be a Lord

An emperor without a reign title or temple name is called a young emperor. Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, there have been many young emperors, but none met a worse fate than Liu Bian: the first emperor of the Eastern Han to be deposed, he was later forced to take his own life. Now Liu Bian is eight years old, the Yellow Turban Rebellion is about to begin, and Emperor Ling of Han is still building pools of wine and forests of meat in the palace, indulging his lust without restraint. The imperial prince Liu Xie is already showing signs of brilliance. Dong Zhuo, too, has begun to rise to power. The Ten Attendants are still riding high, while He Jin remains lost in the drunken dream of holding power in his hands. Lü Bu is still a cavalryman. Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Jian, Yuan Shao, and the others are also growing their power amid the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Born a prince, why must he become a young emperor? - Liu Bian.
