description: "Zhang Jue was a religious leader in ancient China who became a military general and led the Yellow Turban Rebellion during the late Eastern Han dynasty of China. He had a reputation as a Taoist sorcerer capable of performing miracles, and he became extraordinarily popular. Proclaiming the government as corrupt and oppressive, he and his followers attempted to take over the capital city but was thwarted. His name is sometimes read as Zhang Jiao, since the Chinese character of Zhang's given name can be read as either \"Jiao\" or \"Jue\", which are 2 different pronunciations of the same character that evolved through different routes."
