Marquis of the Great Han Fiction
Marquis of the Great Han

The Great Emperor led his army to overthrow the tyrannical Qin Dynasty and conquer the Western Chu, establishing the backbone of the Han ethnic group. The era of Wen and Jing built the mighty empire of Han and the Han Emperor. Emperor Wu of Han attacked the Xiongnu in the north, pacified the southern Yue tribes, and opened the Silk Road in the west, expanding the territory and creating the splendor of the strong Han. It is lamentable that the later generations of Han people are intoxicated with wealth and indulged in peaceful times, failing to recognize the strength of their ancestors and the glory of the Han empire. Historians of later generations sigh at the fleeting glory and the legendary downfall of the once mighty empire, leaving only a small footnote in the collapse of the first empire in Chinese history. Traveling back two thousand years, I find myself in the final years of Emperor Jing of Han, as the Marquis of Pingyang, married to the Princess of Pingyang, with the Emperor Wu of Han as my brother-in-law. At this crucial period of the thriving Han empire, Cao Shi, I, shall use my own hands to compose a new glorious chapter.
