In the winter of 1915, China held two scenes at once: in Beijing a man tried on an emperor's dragon robes, while in the south a general plotted his downfall. His name was Cai E. In just eighty-three days he broke Yuan Shikai's empire - then he died at thirty-four. This is the true story of how one man's life and death moved the fate of a nation.
