The Trajectory of the "villain": "eunuch Party" and Late Ming Politics
About This Novel
Among the twenty-four official histories of ancient China, only the "History of the Ming Dynasty" lists the "Biography of the Eunuchs". The biography is mainly about the party members of Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch of the Apocalypse. However, only the most notorious ones are listed, and the content is too simple, not enough to get a full picture of the eunuchs, and it will inevitably affect the overall understanding of the party struggle in the late Ming Dynasty. This book mainly discusses the definition and personnel composition of the Eunuch Party of Wei Zhongxian, the reasons and process of the formation of the Eunuch Party, the main activities of the Eunuch Party in various periods such as Wanli, Taichang, Tianqi, Chongzhen, Hongguang, and the early Qing Dynasty, as well as the activities of some descendants of the Eunuch Party, the formation of "History of the Ming Dynasty·Eunuch Party Biography" and other issues. It strives to make up for this shortcoming of the "History of the Ming Dynasty" and enrich and deepen the understanding of the Eunuch Party and the party struggles in the late Ming Dynasty.
