Looking at the history of the two Jin Dynasties, it is a record of the rise and fall of the Sima family. From Sima Yi dormant and waiting, Sima Yan usurped the Wei and Jin Dynasties, to the brief flash in the pan during the Taikang era, to the Eight Kings' Rebellion disrupting the court, and the Wuhu cavalry trampling through the Central Plains, the Sima family's world was teetering on the edge of power intrigues and foreign invasion.
Yi Guan traveled south, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty settled in the south of the Yangtze River. The nobles and noble families fought for power and profit, and the famous generals and wise ministers tried their best to support it, but it was difficult to reverse the decline. This book uses a popular style of writing to dismantle the power chess game of the Sima family, detailing the turmoil in the imperial court of the two Jin Dynasties and the iron horses on the battlefield. In the changing and chaotic times, this book can understand the deep logic of a dynasty from its rise to its collapse.
