In the first year of Jian'an, chaos and disputes arose everywhere. A modern soul transmigrated to become Yuan Wen, the illegitimate son of Yuan Shao. As soon as he woke up, he encountered framing by his brothers and almost drowned. Situated in the Yuan mansion where the barrier between legitimate and illegitimate sons was strictly guarded, he had only historical cognition of later generations, yet possessed neither power nor influence, facing crises at every step. His advice to Yuan Shao met with a cold reception, and he was sent away to the crisis-ridden Yanmen. Holding a group of thorn-like soldiers in hand, the court and noble families had undercurrents surging, and various strategists harbored evil intentions. On one hand, he had to gain a foothold amidst the glint of swords and flashing of halberds, and on the other hand, seize the opportunity to win fame and gather talent. Amidst the vortex of the world's major trend, he wanted to break free from the predetermined tragic fate, and fight for a path of survival in the chaotic situation of the late Han dynasty.
