Story:
During the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor. Sun Quan of Eastern Wu, also aspiring to imperial power, pledged allegiance to him. Cao Pi enfeoffed him as King of Wu and even intended to make Sun Deng, Sun Quan's son, the Crown Prince.
Sun Quan then sent Shen Heng with numerous jewels and spices. They agreed that Wei and Wu would keep their promises and reconcile.
Shen Heng successfully completed his mission and was later conferred the title of Marquis of Anxiang upon his return to Eastern Wu.
