Romance of the Later Han Dynasty

During the Han dynasty, historians divided it into two dynasties, called the Later and Later Han, also known as the Eastern and Western Han. Because during the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped the country and usurped the throne for eighteen years, so the people before Wang Mang were called the Former Han Dynasty, and after Wang Mang, they were called the Later Han Dynasty. Moreover, the former Han Dynasty established its capital in Shaanxi, so it was known as the Western Han Dynasty, and the later Han Dynasty established its capital in Luoyang, so it was known as the Eastern Han Dynasty. "The Romance of the Later Han Dynasty" follows "The Romance of the Former Han Dynasty", starting from Wang Mang and ending with the Three Kingdoms. "The Romance of the Former Han Dynasty" is attached to the Qin Dynasty, and the "Romance of the Later Han Dynasty" is attached to the Three Kingdoms, but they are also unique creations. If we want to talk about the rise and fall of the Later Han Dynasty, it is more complicated than that of the Early Han Dynasty: Wang Mang usurped the country, and the disaster was caused by the Yuan Dynasty. Foreign relatives were harmed. As for this, Guangwu Zhongxing paid close attention to punishment and tried to prevent foreign relatives from intervening in the government. Emperor Ming was particularly paternal, and Emperor Zhang was very impressive in his early administration. After the emperor and the emperor, the national affairs deteriorated day by day. Foreign relatives and eunuchs fought and eventually died together. The power of the country was in the hands of the state pastors. The heroes competed for hegemony, and the weak and the strong preyed on each other. Thus, there were three kingdoms. In total, from Guangwu to Emperor Zhang, it was the era of the dictatorship of kings. From Emperor He to Emperor Huan, it was the era of relatives and eunuchs changing their powers. If Emperor Xian's reign was full of changes, it was an era of chaos and conflict at first, then an era of disputes in Fangzhen, and finally an era of competition among the Three Kingdoms...

After the Qing army entered the customs, it became the second foreign regime after the Mongols. It established the heyday of Kang, Yongzong and Qianlong and determined the territory of modern China. While the Western world was undergoing rapid changes due to the Industrial Revolution, the Qing Empire, which was in a state of stagnation, could not escape reality after all. The people are suffering, and the West is coveting it. An Opium War pulled China into the category of modern history. In the next half century, China suffered from internal and external troubles and wars, which severely damaged its vitality. Although there were later reforms such as the Westernization Movement and the Reform Movement, they ended up being blocked by the conservative faction. The anti-foreign movement also led to the invasion of the Eight-Power Allied Forces, which eventually ceded territory and paid indemnities, leaving the Qing Empire unable to revive. In the end, the battle of Wuchang ruined the Qing Dynasty, and also ended the imperial era of more than two thousand years.

The Five Dynasties lasted for fifty-three years, with eight surnames and thirteen emperors, and the country's name was changed five times, namely Liang, Tang, Jin, Han, and Zhou. Because these kingdoms had already been named by previous dynasties, historians added a later character to each, calling them Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and Later Zhou. In addition, there were countries that were either combined or separated from the Five Dynasties, but were not affiliated with each other. They were called the Ten Kingdoms, namely Wu, Chu, Fujian, Southern Tang, Former Shu, Later Shu, Southern Han, Northern Han, Wuyue, and Jingnan.

During the Han Dynasty, historians divided it into two groups, called the Early Han and the Later Han, also known as the Eastern and Western Han. This is because during the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped the country and actually usurped the throne for eighteen years. Therefore, before Wang Mang, it was called the Former Han, and after Wang Mang, it was called the Later Han. Moreover, the former Han Dynasty established its capital in Shaanxi, so it was known as the Western Han Dynasty, and the later Han Dynasty established its capital in Luoyang, so it was known as the Eastern Han Dynasty. "The Romance of the Former Han Dynasty" has hundreds of chapters, starting from the beginning of Qin Shihuang and ending with Wang Mang's usurpation of the country. This part is connected with the previous part, starting with Wang Mang and ending with the Three Kingdoms. "The Romance of the Former Han Dynasty" is attached to the Qin Dynasty, and the "Romance of the Later Han Dynasty" is attached to the Three Kingdoms, but they are also unique creations. If we want to talk about the rise and fall of the Later Han Dynasty, it is more complicated than that of the Early Han Dynasty: Wang Mang usurped the country, and the disaster was caused by the Yuan Dynasty. Foreign relatives were harmed. As for this, Guangwu Zhongxing paid close attention to past mistakes and took over the power personally to prevent foreign influence from interfering with the government. Emperor Ming was particularly paternal, and Emperor Zhang was very impressive in his early administration. After Emperor He was emperor, the country's affairs deteriorated day by day. Foreign relatives and eunuchs fought, and eventually they all died together. The power of the country fell into the hands of Zhou Mu, and the heroes fought for hegemony. The weak and the strong preyed on each other, and there were three kingdoms. In total, from Guangwu to Emperor Zhang, it was the era of the dictatorship of kings. From Emperor He to Emperor Huan, it was the era of relatives and eunuchs changing their powers. If Emperor Xian's dynasty was full of changes, it was an era of chaos and conflict at first, then an era of disputes in Fangzhen, and finally an era of competition among the Three Kingdoms... "The Romance of the Later Han" was compiled by Cai Dongfan.
