After the Gaopingling Incident, Sima Yi finally took the military and political power of the State of Wei into his own hands, and under the several years of operation of the Sima family, Sima Yi's grandson Sima Yan accepted the throne of Emperor Wei, that is, Cao Cao's grandson Cao Yi. In the end, Sima Yan fixed the capital luoyang, and the state name was Jin. In the decades after the founding of the Jin Dynasty, Sima Yan destroyed the Shu and Wu states successively. It is reasonable to say that those great unified dynasties will basically repair one or several canonical histories to commemorate their dynasties, but the Jin Dynasty did not leave notes to commemorate their dynasties, the reason is very simple, mainly the following points:
First, during the reign, the Jin Dynasty was in chaos
The capital of the founding of the Jin Dynasty was the Gate Valve Clan at that time, and after the founding of the Jin Dynasty, it was natural to implement the Nine-Pin Zhongzheng System on the Door Valve Clan, which led to the power of the Gate Valve Clan of the Jin Dynasty reaching an unprecedented strength, and there were multiple sovereigns of a country. At that time, the rulers of the Jin Dynasty wanted to ensure that the blood of their descendants would always be the purest, so they had always maintained the tradition of marriage between close relatives, so it was normal to have a foolish emperor. Because of the birth of this foolish emperor, the imperial power at that time has always given way to the Door Valve Clan, so there are various clan kings and Door Valve Clans that are difficult to submit, so that the social atmosphere at that time is becoming more and more corrupt, and the competition between foreign relatives, princes, and Door Valve Clans is constant, and their struggle has brought endless civil wars to the Jin Dynasty, and under such chaotic rule, the Jin Dynasty can persist for 155 years. Therefore, it is normal that no one has perfected the history books of that time.
Second, the jin dynasty's reign was short-lived
The period of true unification of the Jin Dynasty was only a short period of fifty years, and in addition to the various contradictions caused by the chaotic rule of the Jin Dynasty at that time, these civil wars directly slowly decayed the Jin Dynasty from the roots, and after the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, the Jin Dynasty's economic, political, and military was subversively attacked, in this case, the ethnic minorities around the Jin Dynasty took the opportunity to invade the Jin Dynasty, resulting in a part of the territory of the Central Plains surviving for hundreds of years in the era of Wuhu Chaohua. During this period, all that some Han Chinese in the Central Plains suffered was an indelible stain on the Jin Dynasty. The Jin Dynasty was far from the previous Three Kingdoms period, although the Three Kingdoms period was constantly in war, but there was absolutely no invasion of the Central Plains, as long as there were foreign ethnic groups provoking trouble, they would have been suppressed by the Shu State and the Wei State long ago, and they would not have the idea of thinking of the Central Plains at all. And what happened during the Jin Dynasty was fundamental, resulting in the fact that the history books at that time could not be written, and the existence of historical records was generally used to commemorate and commemorate the wonderfulness of a dynasty, and few people who wanted to look back at such a short and unbearable dynasty as the Jin Dynasty were willing to revise the history for it.
Third, the hereafter is in a chaotic world
Although Chinese culture has a long history, sometimes when the previous dynasty did not revise history, the later dynasties would also be willing to do it for it. But the Jin Dynasty is not the same, the Jin Dynasty originally had some stains, and then the dynasty after the Jin Dynasty was in a chaotic world, so no dynasty was willing to give it a history revision, especially when the newly born Sui Dynasty had not yet had time to repair the history of the Jin Dynasty, it was given a pot by the Tang Dynasty, this time the Jin Dynasty completely reached an embarrassing point, the Jin Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty were separated from the Northern and Southern Dynasties period and the Sui Dynasty period, and Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty was so powerful that it was inevitable that he would look down on the Jin Dynasty, so it was normal for the Tang Dynasty not to repair the history of the Jin Dynasty.
So because of the above reasons, the Jin Dynasty has become a small pity without a correct history, in fact, the reason why the Jin Dynasty has no correct history really can't blame others, in the Three Kingdoms period, Sun Quan was defensive against those door valve clans, they were not unable to see, in saying that the Sima family itself is from the door valve clan, the Sima family itself can not know the strength of the door valve clan, it is simply funny, without that ability to build a dynasty, the last to suffer is always the people, anyway, it is not they themselves who are not distressed. Therefore, it is purely deserved that the Jin Dynasty did not have a correct history.
