About This Novel
The "Romances of China's Most Promising Emperors" series of books selects eight most promising emperors in Chinese history from the "Popular Romance of Chinese Dynasties" written by Mr. Cai Dongfan (based on the 1935 Huiwentang printed version, retaining the author's annotations) and compiles them into a book. This series of books has both historical and literary qualities. It "takes official history as the basis and strives for certainty; it uses anecdotes as the weft and does not make false accusations." Readers can not only read history but also appreciate legendary stories, which is the best of both worlds. This book is one of them, with a total of twenty-two chapters. It tells the story of the young hero Liu Che, the Han Dynasty Emperor Liu Che, in the prosperous era of Hanwu, including his early experiences, his domination of the world, the disaster of witchcraft, Luntai sinner, Tuogu Huoguang and other histories.
