The series begins amidst the chaotic Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period in Chinese history. Since the fall of the Tang dynasty in 907 CE, China has been divided between various regimes for more than 40 years. Like many of his peers, Kuangyin desired for the day whereby China would return to peace under a unified empire. However, unlike most other people, he is willing to bear arms and fight for that day. Along the way, he made friends and enemies, and established the Song Empire. However, like all founding emperors, Kuangyin soon discovered that to found an empire is way easier than to actually govern it well...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Adapted Out: Fan Zhi and Wang Pu, the historical First and Second Chancellors of the Later Zhou when the coup at Chenqiao took place.note Both men were also assigned by Chai Rong as caretaker officials to assist the young Chai Zongxun. In the show, some of Fan Zhi's actions and titles were shifted to Wei Renpu. Historically, Guangyi had another wife (Lady Yin) before he married Lady Fu. Cao Bin, the historical commander of the expedition which conquered the Southern Tang. Historically, Kuangyin and Guangyi had another brother, Tingmei, who was alive during their reigns. note Tingmei previously had two other names (Kuangmei and Guangmei) which were changed due to both his brothers becoming emperors. Historically, his death caused Guangyi's first crown prince to go insane with grief.

A Child Shall Lead Them: Chai Rong's underaged son Zongxun. As expected, things fall apart very quickly after the boy became emperor.

Artistic License – History: Historically, many ladies' names have not been recorded down. This includes Lady Du, Kuangyin's mother and later the first empress dowager of Song. Similarly, many events surrounding the ladies (except for Lady Du) in-series were fictional as their activities were not recorded down in traditional histories. Historically, no coup took place on the day Kuangyin was born. However, it is historically true that in the year before his birth, a coup did take place involving his father Hongyin's benefactor. note Li Cunxu, posthumously known as Emperor Zhuangzong of Later Tang, had promoted Hongyin to be part of the imperial guard at Luoyang (where Kuangyin was born). Li was killed in 926 C.E. in what would be known as the "Mutiny at Xing Jiao Gate" (兴教门之变).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })
