Things About the Jin Dynasty·1: Styles of the Wei and Jin Dynasties
About This Novel
This book is the first volume with a total of six chapters. It starts from Sima Yi's early political career and ends with the death of Emperor Wu of Jin Sima Yan. It comprehensively describes Sima's entrepreneurial process and describes the experiences of three generations of Sima's ancestors one by one: Sima Yi was forced to join Cao's camp and helped Cao overcome difficulties at critical moments many times. Assisting Cao Pi, he narrowly defeated Cao Zhi in the battle to seize the throne, and stabilized the situation for Cao Pi, who had just ascended the throne. However, he had strong enemies outside. He quickly gained the trust of Cao Pi and Cao Rui, and became the trusted minister of the two dynasties. Later, when Cao Shuang came to power, Sima Yi and his son launched the Gaoping Ling Incident in order to gain power from Cao Shuang. The brothers Sima Shi and Sima Zhao inherited their father's political legacy and took full control of the Wei Dynasty. They abolished Cao Fang, quelled the Huainan rebellion, and sent troops to destroy Shu. This not only stabilized the situation in Wei, but also consolidated the Sima family's power base. Under the planning of his advisers, Sima Yan successfully seized the throne and became the founding king of Jin. He worked hard to govern and finally destroyed Soochow and unified China. However, the founding kings of the country ended up being ignorant and corrupt, sowing the seeds of the country's ruin. The characters of the three generations of the Sima family are also vividly and meticulously described: Sima Yi is far-sighted and able to stretch freely. He can win by surprise and is better at hiding the enemy. In the life-and-death struggle with the enemy, he will always be invincible; Although Sima Yan had the capital to be a heroic leader of the generation, his playboy nature lost all his vigor after the destruction of Wu, and he became short-sighted and appointed inhumane people. In the end, he was cut off constantly, which paved the way for the subsequent chaos.
