by Zhang Peng
About This Novel
The author of this book provides readers with an in-depth explanation of the lesser-known stories of the guardians of the Forbidden City from the perspective of a reporter. They are the old dean who walked through the more than 9,000 rooms of the Forbidden City in old cloth shoes, the experts on Qing history who restored the "Golden Dragon Banquet", the "general stewards" of the Forbidden City, the "generals who stand in the palace" who guard the cultural relics, a group of restorers of ancient buildings who "go to the rooms and uncover the tiles", and the exotic flowers and plants that have been guarded inside and outside the walls of the imperial concubine's courtyard for many years. "Red Cat"... They only do one thing throughout their lives, guarding everything here with their love for the Forbidden City and their affection for cultural relics... In the deep palace, they always have an increasingly quiet heart and an increasingly focused emotion, just as the bronze restoration master Wang Youliang said: "The walls of the Forbidden City are too thick, and the outside wind cannot blow in.
