About This Novel
This book is the simplified version of "The Popular Romance of Cai Dongfan's Past Dynasties" printed by Huiwentang in 1935. The ancestors of the Li family were able to maintain their strength amidst the chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty and conquered the world in one fell swoop. Taizong Li Shimin is well known for the establishment of the Tang Empire. He successfully obtained the throne despite weak opposition and initiated the rule of Zhenguan. Later, the unprecedented female emperor Wu Zetian continued the empire's prosperity. Tang Xuanzong's Kaiyuan Tianbao Reign followed immediately, and the empire dominated all corners of the world in the land of Middle-Earth. After the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Empire began to decline. The separatist rule of vassal towns, the exclusive power of eunuchs, and crony warfare became the cancer of Tang Dynasty politics. Eunuchs controlled the fate of this crumbling empire. While the central characters inadvertently escaped from history, in order to end the war, the opposition forces were legalized on the spot. Coupled with the disobedient warlords of the feudal towns, the empire happened to be very aware of the current affairs and muddle along. During a long period of calm contemplation, the out-of-control empire also had reverie to cheer up, but in the end it could not be restored.
