I think, how many people in this world can compete with the charm of Wei and Jin?

The Wei and Jin dynasties are to me what a colorful painting is to its viewers, and the scholars in the painting, the graceful girls with wide sleeves, and the turmoil and chaos, philosophical ideas and values unique to that era, naturally possess all the elements that attract people to fall into it.

Therefore, I chose many background settings of this era to create a pseudo-Three Kingdoms troubled era.

When I first wrote it, I didn't actually plan to write such a conspiracy essay.

However, as the outline was refined, I gradually discovered that the so-called rebirth is by no means a certainty of rebirth and everything is clear, on the contrary, it is a gradual, from clear to vague, from known to unknown, interesting, but also complex.

Also, I don't want to repeat the inner house plot of the previous book.

A woman who wants to change the dynasty but comes from a humble background, it is impossible for her to complete all this in the back house, she must go out, climb to a higher position, and get more and more help.

So, I wrote this book obscurely, and I guess everyone has a hard time reading it, because when I reread it myself, I also struggled.

This should be the reason why I didn't grasp it well, in fact, it is completely possible to make the pattern a little smaller and write the story more exquisitely, but I just wanted to try to write a story about the battle of wits and courage between smart people and the change of the country. And when I finish writing the last word and look down on the whole story, I can only say that there is still a certain gap between it and the power struggle I imagined. I didn't bring it to life in its best form, which makes me feel sorry for me, and it also makes me full of gratitude and admiration for those who have persevered through this book.

Thank you for the company of all your dear readers in the past year and two months, and thank you for each and every one of you for being able to accompany the author and spend such a long period of time with this lengthy and complicated book.

Next, I have to say goodbye to everyone for a short time.

I have been writing this book for too long, and I am sure everyone has felt the feeling of being in a hurry to conclude it later. It's like staying in a place for too long and wanting to leave early and see a different view. Now that I finally have a not-so-perfect finish, I'm finally able to calm down and start thinking about the next one, and I'm really relieved.

If nothing else, I think the new book will be available at the end of the year, and no later than early next year at the latest.

I hope to see each and every one of you again at that time.

Thank you again to all readers, love you guys!
