Introduction to "The Rebirth of Han Zuo"
Chen Yan, a modern history enthusiast, accidentally traveled to the early years of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which coincided with the time when Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie was welcomed to Xudu by Cao Cao and became a puppet who "held the emperor to order the princes". At that time, the Han Dynasty was in decline, and the prototype of the three-part world was gradually emerging. There were powerful ministers and minions inside and outside the court, and the people were suffering from war and famine. The glory of the powerful Han Dynasty had long faded in the flames of war.

They worked step by step in the cracks of troubled times, sought a way out in the smoke of Guandu, looked for a turning point in the stormy waves of Chibi, and finally "helped Qing"
