About This Novel
At the beginning of the establishment of the Han Empire, everything was in ruins. Empress Lu's power was in the hands of both the government and the public, and her relatives started to stir up trouble, leading to chaos among the Lu emperors. The two emperors Wen and Jing recuperated the country, did little corvee and paid little tax, and resumed production. Everything has been prepared, just waiting for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to take the stage. He was determined to forge ahead and made the Han Dynasty's politics, economy, and military become unprecedentedly powerful. Politically, he strengthened the imperial power, implemented favor orders, and weakened the princes and kings; culturally, he adopted Dong Zhongshu's suggestion, deposed hundreds of schools of thought, and only respected Confucianism, making it the mainstream thought for two thousand years; militarily, he defeated the old enemy of the Huns, making the Han Empire the leading military power at that time; economically, he listened to Sang Hongyang's suggestion, and established the Yantieguan camp, which greatly enriched the national treasury. Under his management, the Han Empire was proud of the East. Scholar Yi Zhongtian subverts the traditional writing method of historical works. With beautiful poetic language and a unique and innovative global perspective, he will spend five years writing five masterpieces with a total of 36 volumes, "Yi Zhongtian's History of China".
