After the An Lushan Rebellion, the once-glorious Tang dynasty began its decline. By the reign of Emperor Dezong, the dynasty's deep-rooted troubles had become impossible to reverse, and it was rocked by the upheaval of the Four Kings and Two Emperors and the Jingyuan Mutiny. Emperor Dezong was forced to abandon Chang'an and flee to the small county of Fengtian.
The capital had fallen, the imperial family had been massacred, and rebel troops were besieging the city. The situation was desperate. It seemed the Tang dynasty was about to vanish in an instant.
At that very moment, Li Shimin, the man who had founded the Tang dynasty, was reborn. Faced with a realm riddled with wounds, a dynasty falling apart, people living in desperate hardship, and the incompetent sons and grandsons of his own Li family... What would Li Shimin do?!
With a resolute hand, he strokes his long sword. Saving the world is no bid for fame. In the past, war drums shook the land; now, peace reigns across the realm!
