About This Novel
"Chen Shun-chen's Eighteen Historical Briefs: The Rise and Fall of Impermanence" is the third book in the "Chen Shun-chen's Eighteen Historical Briefs" series, which tells the important historical figures and events during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. The theme running through this book is the vicissitudes of long, troubled times. Following the previous book, the plot begins with the Yellow Turban Uprising at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the troubled times of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties unfold. The characters in the author's works are wonderfully different from traditional images. In addition to his cruelty, Dong Zhuo also had the wisdom to increase his troops through illusions and the political intuition to establish a new emperor; Kong Ming had superb political talents, but when the national power of Shu was weak, he could only use the method of deifying himself to unite the hearts of the people of Shu. And combat power; Sima Yi and Kong Ming were indeed matched against each other, but their later show of weakness and caution was to better hide and preserve their ambitions... Human nature, desire, bloodshed, and intrigue in troubled times are all reflected in the unpredictable rise and fall of this book.
