In the fifth year of Weiganlu, the Wei Emperor Cao Mao, who was stabbed to death by the Sima family on the street, was haphazardly placed in a thin wooden coffin.
There were no relatives or ministers to see him off, no ceremonial music, only a few crude carts for the funeral procession.
As the carts jolted along, the decaying wood began to seep blood, causing several laborers to cry out in alarm and flee.
As the coffin tumbled down, Zhuge Liang, who had passed away twenty-six years ago, opened his eyes once again in this young body.
At this moment, it had been thirty-seven years since the death of the Emperor Zhaolie, who entrusted his orphan.
Now, the Grand General Jiang Wei had been demoted to manage farmland in Dazhong, struggling to survive alone.
Only three years remained until the downfall of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
