Rules of Power (two Volumes)
by Zou Jimeng
About This Novel
In China's long history, official career has been both a ladder to glory and a Shura field full of traps. "Rules of Power" uses history as a mirror to reveal the true face of ancient officialdom - those who rose and fell in the temple did not rely entirely on talent and loyalty, but in the chess game of "Rules of Power", they knew how to advance and retreat, tolerate and play games. The book systematically sorts out the underlying logic of traditional Chinese political operations from the officialdom system of past dynasties, the hidden rules of promotion, the way of getting along with monarchs and ministers, to the attack and defense of people's hearts and the secret battle of discourse power. Through real historical cases and the fate of characters, the author provides an in-depth analysis of "how power is generated, balanced and destroyed", allowing readers to see that in this war without gunpowder in the officialdom, the most deadly thing is never the external enemy, but the human heart. This is not only a book about ancient official career, but also an in-depth reading that reveals human nature, power and wisdom. Understanding power is not to play with others, but to see things clearly, understand people's minds, and live more clearly in the complex real world.
