Xiao Chuan pulled an all-nighter and died suddenly, only to transmigrate to the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period. From the start, he was lying at his own funeral.
The original owner had been poisoned to death. It was Liu Feng, Liu Bei's adopted son, who had plotted the takeover, eliminating Liu Shan's supporters to clear the way for usurpation.
With death staring him in the face, getting involved in power struggles would only lead to a dead end.
Xiao Chuan found another path and took up the business no one believed in: Three Kingdoms entertainment.
The court officials mocked him for wasting his talents on frivolity, while Liu Feng waited for him to dig his own grave.
But no one saw through it: he wasn't putting on shows for amusement. He was winning the people's hearts!
Xiao Chuan wielded ballads as blades and entertainment as a shield, winning popular support, bringing peace to a troubled age, and determining the fate of the realm.
From a doomed wastrel who faked his own death to survive, he rose to become the master of entertainment across the Nine Provinces, commanding the respect of Wei, Shu, and Wu.
