From the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century, the two or three decades in between were neither short nor long. For China, it has been a decade of dramatic changes. Among them, after the Second Opium War, China went through the Self-Strengthening Movement, the First Sino-Japanese War, the Hundred Days' Reform, the Xinhai Revolution, and the Second Revolution, etc. Among them, China ended the rule of the Qing Dynasty and entered the Republic of China era. New ideas began to emerge, and the old system gradually declined. China, which is riddled with problems, is also moving forward towards a brighter future. In the course of these two or three decades of history, many figures of both good and evil have been left behind. Empress Dowager Cixi (played by Lu Zhong), Li Hongzhang (played by Wang Bing), Yuan Shikai (played by Sun Chun), Sun Yat-sen (played by Ma Shaohua), and others have been recorded in history textbooks and linked to Chinese history. Through this drama, let's take a look back at that era once again, an era full of ups and downs and countless changes. Although the road ahead is arduous, we are also moving forward step by step.[Collapse]
