When we watch the large-scale TV series Romance of the Three Kingdoms, there will always be a vigorous male voice talking about the years of Jian 'an in the narration. Yes, the whole history of the Three Kingdoms period is almost the Jian 'an period, and the emperor in this period was simply arrogant, making the country so chaotic and divided. After three months of war, people fell into poverty, which is simply a hell on earth. In fact, this can't blame the poor little emperor, because the regime in Jian 'an period was sidelined, and the treacherous Cao Cao had long been firmly in his own hands.
Him? Holding the emperor as a minister? Nominally, it was a rebel army that helped the little emperor crusade against rebellion everywhere. In fact, it was Cao Cao who recruited troops in the name of the little emperor to strengthen his own strength. Later, Cao Cao controlled more than half of the country, including many civilian military commanders, and was the strongest in Wei, Shu and Wuzhong. Finally, Wei, controlled by Sima Yi, destroyed Xishu and Soochow successively, and made his descendants ascend to the highest throne.
In addition to the historical dramas of the Han Dynasty, Jian 'an years are often heard in some cultural programs with historical themes, such as the seven sons of Jian 'an, such as the splendid cultural treasures of Jian 'an period. Cao Cao is a treacherous and suspicious adulterer at any time, but his poetic realm is also quite good. Is there a poet named Cao Cao missing in the history of China because of the war? Cao Cao is generally called a politician, strategist and prime minister, and almost no one calls him a poet, but to tell the truth, Cao Cao's poems are magnificent and not worse than those poets who have made great achievements in history. Cao Zhi, the son of Cao Cao, is also a good writer, and his seven-step poem is also a much-told story. At that time, the literary atmosphere was strong, so Jian 'an literature was formed.
