Long Sword at the End of Jin

Long Sword of the Late Jin

As the Tang poet Xu Yin wrote in his poem "Two Jin Dynasties": "Three generations of deep schemes opened the imperial foundation; pitiful are the widows and orphans. The crime returned to Cheng Ji, and heaven’s hatred remained; the spear violated the enlightened ruler, a sorrow for ten thousand ages."

The Western Jin won the realm unjustly and committed too many mistakes, inheriting all the maladies left behind since the Eastern Han and the Three Kingdoms.

By the end of the Jin, everything had become deeply entrenched and beyond repair, urgently requiring the imperial values and governing system to be rebuilt.

But "who knew that the people with prominent noses could read the heavenly count, and would instead raise the war banners in the Central Plains?" History gave them no such chance.

What one sows, one reaps.

A transmigrator arrives in the gradually collapsing late Western Jin, and all he can do is—first, survive.
