The Emperor Who Drank Eighteen Bowls of Jelly
by Xu Guohua
About This Novel
The yang serves the yin and violates the ambition of the wolf, bullying the king and suppressing the people and disrupting the government. The wise young master used a small plan to capture Ao and was praised by others. These four short poems are about a strange court case that happened during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. What's strange is that the child emperor, who was just over ten years old, actually defeated a powerful traitor who had all the power in the government and the public, and was murderous and arrogant. Moreover, the planning was so clever and the actions were so neat. Without anyone noticing, he took the power back into his own hands without making a sound or a bloody blow. One day in July of the sixth year of Kangxi's reign, that is, 1667, in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Imperial Palace in Beijing, bells and drums were ringing, and incense was swirling.
