From the establishment of the Sui Dynasty by Yang Jian in 581 AD to the fall of the Tang Dynasty in 907 AD, these 326 years were the famous Sui and Tang Dynasties in the history of our country. The Five Dynasties were the regimes that changed successively from the Later Liang, Later Tang, Later Jin, Later Han, and Later Wu Dynasties established after the fall of the Tang Dynasty in 907 AD until the establishment of the Northern Song Dynasty in 960 AD. The country experienced more than 70 years of turmoil. During these nearly four hundred years, there were times of peace and prosperity, as well as raging wars, and outstanding figures appeared one after another. Yang Jian, who ended the 400-year war, spoke out to remonstrate with Wei Zheng, Li Bi, who was dressed in white as prime minister, Su Dingfang, who destroyed the three kingdoms and opened up new territories, Wu Zetian, who ascended the throne as a woman... In the face of successive crises, they relied on their own wisdom to reverse the situation and contributed one legendary story after another.

From 1907 to 1909, a little-known British female writer embarked on a grand tour in China. She recorded the Chinese society and Chinese people at that time from an outsider's perspective, and wrote 19 long letters to introduce her experiences and knowledge in this big Eastern country to friends in the UK. The first stop after landing in Shanghai was to Zhifu, Shandong, and she made full preparations for the next trip to China. Starting from Beijing, her trip officially started, heading to Wuhan via the Beijing-Hankow Railway, heading west to the Sichuan Basin, then to Hebei and Shanxi alone, then south to Nanjing, and returned to Shanghai via Hangzhou.

On the eve of the Revolution of 1911, the traditional era was quietly disintegrating...
