How can you see the servility of scholar-bureaucrats?

The writing is really not that good. . . . . .

To be honest, if you look at the preface, some of the sentences are too subjective and reflect the author's personal emotions.

But it is undeniable that the descriptions and descriptions in the subsequent text are relatively complete, and overall it is a good book.
