Love for one's close relatives can be perilous, as it may jeopardize one's own well-being. When a minister becomes too powerful, it is inevitable that the ruler's position will be threatened. If brothers do not submit to authority, it will endanger the stability of the state. The rise of treacherous ministers leads to the decline of the righteous path. The vast territories of feudal lords pose a danger to the emperor. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the empire was in great chaos, with powerful eunuchs and influential relatives causing harm to the nation, while regional warlords seized power, leaving the Han Dynasty in name only. The Yuan family, composed of officials and scholars from the fourth generation, sought to rule the world. Cao Mengde, a visionary figure despite being labeled as an unworthy eunuch, gathered talents and aimed to dominate the central plains. Jiangdong has always produced heroes, from the formidable tiger Sun Jian who swept all enemies, to the young hero Sun Ce who established the foundation of Eastern Wu, and Sun Quan, who inherited the legacy of his father and brothers and aspired to become an emperor. Liu Bei, renowned for his righteousness and unmatched fame as a descendant of the Han Dynasty, spent half of his life wandering, until Zhuge Liang appeared and provided the perfect strategy for dividing the realm into three. In his later years, Liu Xuan, known as Liu Bei, finally achieved his ambition to become a hegemon. Guo Jia, a talented strategist who died prematurely, was an important advisor to Cao Wei in history. When a time-traveler takes the place of Guo Jia, the brilliant and resourceful strategist is transformed into someone with a completely different destiny, embarking on another grand and eventful life.
