People often marvel at the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the prowess of the powerful Han Dynasties, because these two dynasties have shown their own unique charm both internally and externally, leaving behind a splendid culture. However, a nation cannot It may have been prosperous and connected the two powerful dynasties, the Three Kingdoms with frequent wars, the briefly unified Western Jin Dynasty , the troubled times after the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty were divided into the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Yongjia South Crossing , and the Five Huanhua is a vigorous national integration, the rise of the nine-level Zhongzheng, the clan system, and the beginning of its decline. During this period, heroes appeared one after another, and they all once belonged to this era Sanda My own light, I think, if there is another writing style like Luo Guanzhong , he will be much more exciting than the Three Kingdoms, and also much crueler.

This also starts from the Three Kingdoms period. Cao Cao saved some capital after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and with the support of his father, he organized a team of soldiers and horses. Later, he quelled the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Rebellion and had his own territory. After decades of military service, In his career, he defeated Lu Bu, Liu Bei, Yuan Shao and others to unify the north, and established the foundation of Wei. After several generations, the rule gradually weakened, and the Sima family usurped the foundation of Cao Wei, and basically had unification. The ability of the whole country, after changing the course, attacked the Shu Han, and after destroying Shu, went south to Soochow , and the world returned to the Jin Dynasty. Unfortunately, Sima Yan's own son did not live up to expectations, he was a stupid son, and he trusted this son more. Although he felt stupid, he also He felt that he could be used with the help of ministers, so he did not change the prince. Later, the stupid prince came to the throne, and the government was controlled by Empress Jia . She massacred the courtiers (the original Queen Mother Yang's family), promoted her own people, and was instigated by someone with good intentions. The princes of the Jin Dynasty joined the fight one after another, and eventually killed themselves. The strength was greatly damaged, known as the "Rebellion of the Eight Kings" in history, and then Liu Yuan took advantage of it. This dynasty, which was only "24" years old, collapsed like this, which made people sigh. The north has entered an era of melee between heroes. The repeatedly suppressed , Xianbei, , Di, Qiang, and other ethnic minorities have gone south to plunder. Some of the aristocratic families in the north have crossed the Yangtze River south. This is known as the Yongjia South Crossing in history. It is also the first time that the population has moved south. There are also Those who stayed in the north or built fortresses or integrated with ethnic minorities continued to exist. The Sima family in the south established the Eastern Jin Dynasty with the support of the Wang family of the two major clans. It is known in history as "the king and the horse share the world", which illustrates the importance of the Wang family, especially the two brothers Wang Dun and Wang Dao. It is a pity that the imperial court did not have much power. The power was always controlled by aristocratic families. Wang Dun, Su Jun, Heng Wen and others had exclusive power. They controlled the government and focused on internal fighting. They even rebelled, making the Eastern Jin Dynasty a mess. , of course, he also organized several Northern Expeditions, but he was not focused on it, and his strength did not allow it. As a result, Heng Wen was forced to withdraw after several Northern Expeditions when he reached Guanzhong. Later, and Fu Jian became . The emperor of the former Qin briefly unified the north, claiming to cut off the flow of water with his whip. Hundreds of thousands of troops went south, and the Battle of Feishui broke out. In the end, the Eastern Jin Dynasty, under the auspices of Xie An, captured the power of the former Qin. Weaknesses defeated the former Qin in one fell swoop. So far, the north was in chaos again. The former Qin, which had an unstable foundation, was basically destroyed. The Eastern Jin Dynasty here was not much better. Hengxuan, the son of Hengwen, continued to cause chaos, and there were Sun En and so on. The leader of the sect took the opportunity to cause trouble, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty was unable to do anything until Liu Yu in the Beifu Army rose up and put down many internal rebellions. Then the Northern Expedition went smoothly. Unfortunately, his confidant who stayed in Jiangnan died of illness, which made him worried. There was a loss in the rear and the army had to withdraw. After that, Jin was abolished and established the Song Dynasty, which started the confrontation between the Northern and Southern Dynasties. The Xianbei in the north established the Northern Wei and briefly unified the north. The two sides either fought or made peace, which could be considered temporary stability. However, Liu Yu's descendants were indeed not very good. It may be that the atmosphere of the Southern Dynasties was not very good. There were a lot of absurd emperors who were promiscuous at home and were defeated in hasty expeditions abroad. Therefore, the Southern Dynasties lasted only more than a hundred years. It has experienced four dynasties, Song, Qi, Liang and Chen.During this period, there were many Northern Expeditions without success. By the and Chen Dynasty, voluntarily settled in the south and ruled across the river.

In contrast, the war in the north has never subsided. After the reforms of the Northern Wei Dynasty, it gradually became sinicized, the capital was moved, and the reforms strengthened its strength. As a result, it caused internal dissatisfaction. Coupled with the presence of Rouran, Turks and other forces, in The Six Towns collapsed after the civil uprising and split into Eastern Wei and Western Wei , which were later replaced by Northern Zhou and Northern Qi . At this time, the Turks were powerful, and both the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi were competing to establish good relations with the Turks and develop along the way. itself. However, after years of war, the people were determined, and heroes would naturally appear. Yuwen Yong of the Northern Zhou Dynasty came into being, and Gao Wei of the Northern Qi Dynasty happened to be mediocre and incompetent. After the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed, Yuwen Yong died of illness, and Yang Jian of the Northern Zhou Dynasty seized power, and then went south. Ping and Chen were unified, thus entering the Sui and Tang Dynasties. In fact, Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties are very short, but there are many wonderful stories in it, including the demented emperor who asked why he didn't eat minced meat, the inseparability of rich man Shi Chong and Lu Zhu, and Fu Jian's whip throwing When the flow was cut off, there was Xie An who made a comeback and stabilized the world; there was Liu Yu who swallowed thousands of miles like a tiger and made several northern expeditions; there was Helian Bobo who stayed under the fence but recovered his country; there was Ran Min who had a name for thousands of years and was full of controversy after killing Hu Ling. ; There is the great master of state affairs Wang Meng who is comparable to Zhuge Liang; there are the brothers Zu Di and Liu Kun who are willing to go to the Northern Expedition but are unable to do so; there is also Chen Qingzhi who wears a white robe but fights in the north and south, There are Xiao Yan who were talented and strategist but sacrificed their lives for Buddhism. Among them, there are too many dramas, too many sacrifices for the country, some people sacrificed their small righteousness for the nation, and finally restored the country like Murong Chui; Some people are ambitious but have no loyalty, such as Yao Chang. In the end, the former Qin Dynasty was unified and destroyed in the hands of Fu Jian. It can only be said that things are unpredictable. After experiencing this great national integration, the lower-class children from poor families gradually emerged and began to think about how to avoid and overthrow the so-called clan system. In order to check and balance the control of the government by the aristocratic families, the imperial power also began to reuse the children from poor families in order to stabilize their status. In the end, the imperial examination system appeared to replace the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng. It cannot be said that it has nothing to do with this chaotic period. I think Yang Jian should have learned from the experience of the Wei and Jin Dynasties in order to select scholars through the imperial examination. In addition, after experiencing a vigorous ethnic integration, the culture of the Central Plains has undergone some changes. The emergence of some ethnically compatible products has also promoted the development of culture. In particular, the family's southern crossing has accelerated the development of the south, and the integration of the north and the south has also been strengthened. Unfortunately, Unfortunately, during those dark years, it was difficult for people to feel happy. It can only be said that those who lived well were those children of wealthy families. Being busy and never seeing the light of day was the normal state of the people.

Let us slowly understand that wonderful and dark era together.
