"The Romance of the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasty\u002F Chinese Classical Novel Reading Classification Series" records that after the fall of the Western Jin Dynasty, the north and the south faced off. More than 20 political regimes emerged in the north, collectively known as the Sixteen Kingdoms. In the former Qin Dynasty, Fu Jian mobilized a million troops to attack the Eastern Jin Dynasty. In the south, Sima Rui re-established the government. After many Northern Expeditions failed, Shi Le invaded the border and won the "Battle of Feishui", eliminating the threat from the north. Eleven emperors ascended the throne before and after the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Later, power was transferred to Liu Yu, who usurped the Jin Dynasty and proclaimed himself emperor. The Eastern Jin Dynasty fell, which lasted for 104 years. The Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms were interspersed between the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasties, and the north and the south were in confrontation, with constant wars. The structure of "The Romance of the Eastern and Western Jin Dynasty\u002F Chinese Classical Novel Reading Classification Series" is disordered but not chaotic. From the Western Jin Dynasty to the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and from the Southern Dynasties to the Northern Dynasties, major historical events, large and small wars, are interlocked, referring to the previous and the next, relying on history, and depicting various historical figures. Mr. Zheng Zhenduo commented: "This novel is also very elegant and docile. Almost every word has no source. It is a better one among the history books."
