- 1 The Long Sword at the End of Jin 晋末长剑 As the Tang poet Xu Yin wrote in his poem “The Two Jins”: “Deep schemes across three generations laid the foundations of an empire. What a pity for the widow and orphan. Cheng Ji’s crime brought Heaven’s wrath; the spear that struck a wise ruler is mourned for all eternity.” The Western Jin came to power through illegitimate means and made far too many mistakes, inheriting every ill that had accumulated since the Eastern Han and the Three Kingdoms. By the end of the Jin dynasty, the damage had b 123Votes2MRecs2.1MFans

It also became his only lifeline in this dark, chaotic age.
