Reading People and Reading History: Alternative Interpretations of Chinese Historical Celebrities
by Tang Xiaolan
About This Novel
What this book presents are living figures traveling in the historical ecology, rather than isolated, cold celebrity specimens that are out of date and collected in museums. If you put a character back into his historical environment, you will see some things that we have ignored in the past: Is the influence of loyal ministers on a country necessarily good? How to break the deadlock and seek personal development under a fixed political order? Is the righteous opposition really willing to sacrifice himself for what he believes to be the truth? Is a powerful figure really suitable to survive in politics?

Wu Sangui can clean up, so there is nothing he can't do.
The evaluation is not objective at all. Although it is the opinion of one family, it only talks about merit and does not say anything about it. It is obviously biased and too unfair.
