About This Novel

This set is a series of brief readings of Chinese history by the well-known historian Zhang Hongjie. "A Brief Reading of Chinese History: China in the Coordinates of World History": Chinese civilization has never developed in isolation. From the moment it emerged, it has been influenced by factors from other civilizations in the world. However, these external factors did not change the essence of Chinese civilization, but instead highlighted the uniqueness of Chinese civilization. This book puts Chinese history into the context of world history and clarifies the development of Chinese history, hoping that readers can establish an overall concept of Chinese history in a short time. At the same time, it uses a "long-term, long-distance, wide-view" interpretation method to comprehensively present the internal logic and rules of the game behind the cycle of chaos in Chinese history. "A Brief Reading of Chinese History. The Power and Finance Behind the Corruption in Chinese History": power games and financial rules, systems and checks and balances, top-level designs and the naked humanity behind bad rules are real and cruel. The root cause of corruption in China's past dynasties is absolute power control. It is impossible to solve the corruption problem without solving the foundation of the power structure. The history of imperial rule and the history of official corruption have always been inseparable. The author focuses on the Han, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, makes horizontal and vertical comparisons, explores the imperial rule and official ecology of ancient Chinese society, and clearly presents a multi-angle context of Chinese history to readers.
