About This Novel

In the sixth year of Yongzheng's reign, Zeng Jing, a down-and-out scholar, was influenced by Lu Liuliang's "Hua-Yi Debate" theory and persuaded Yue Zhongqi, the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi, to raise troops to rebel against the Qing Dynasty. The letter directly pointed out that the emperor was guilty of more than a dozen crimes including "stealing edicts and usurping the throne," "not respecting human ethics," "greedy for money and lust," and "loving murder and drunkenness." Yue Zhongqi was shocked and hurriedly arrested Zeng Jing. At the same time, he reported to the court to prove his innocence. After reading the materials, Emperor Yongzheng felt that everything was burning inside him, and he was inexplicably aggrieved. He asked himself that since he came to the throne, he has always been diligent and caring for the people, and he has also rectified the government and made the country prosperous. Who would have expected that some people would say that he is "unforgivable" and so on. In particular, "stealing edicts to usurp the throne" is actually a rumor among the people, and the so-called "Chinese orthodoxy" concept is entirely the opinion of corrupt Confucianists. The only way is to face the controversy head-on and refute it fundamentally! Therefore, he personally wrote an article to refute the other party's views one by one. When he got emotional, he even did not hesitate to expose the secret facts about the brothers' fight for the throne and tell all the family scandals! The result was that the "negative material" was publicly disseminated and turned into a joke for the ages. But as far as the content is concerned, Emperor Yongzheng's discussion of the Hua-Yi issue and the orthodox debate are indeed insightful and have alleviated ethnic conflicts to a certain extent.
