Rescuing Zhao by Indirect Means
Profound in meaning and rich in content, with a rigorously logical and deductive narrative! Veteran readers, come on in—this is a work dedicated to untangling the intricate threads of the “Hundred Schools of Thought” during the Pre-Qin (Eastern Zhou) era, exploring the sweeping reforms of the late Warring States, and delving into the strategies of the heroes and statesmen who sought to save and govern in the early Han dynasty! ————Zhao Congjian... is a rather straightforward yet introverted young man. His life’s creed: “Keep everything simple.” Yet his first job after entering society fell through—he was laid off. Was he to admit defeat? Absolutely not. For one’s heartbeat to flatline would be far too excessive; the true path to simplicity is to set a goal and strive for it relentlessly, to keep living life with effort! “Recharging after graduation,” he immersed himself in literature, history, philosophy, economics, and finance—packing every moment while resubmitting his resume! Without studying history, one cannot clarify one’s aspirations. Yet, one late night, as he cradled the Records of the Grand Historian, he drifted off to sleep and, by accident, his soul crossed over into the Zhao state at the end of the Warring States period. UC Shock! “Is this what it means to return to the embrace of the motherland?

The Qin army is nearly at the gates!” Damn it, the only way is to fight for survival!

Such was the bewilderment of a young man stepping into society for the first time: he’d signed a year-long lease, so leaving now would only benefit the landlord, wouldn’t it?
