The Rise of the Qing Dynasty
About This Novel
In 1405 AD, Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty who had just successfully rebelled, met with a special chief in Nanjing. He has a strange hairstyle with a money rat tail, does not understand court etiquette, dresses inappropriately, and even does not speak Mandarin fluently. But this barbarian was highly recognized by Zhu Di, who made him the commander of the Liaodong Jianzhou Guard, rewarded him with a large amount of property, and even admitted one of his cousins into the harem. The surrender of Meng Ge Timur, the leader of the powerful Jurchen tribe, marked that the Ming Dynasty's control over the Northeast under Zhu Di's rule had been further strengthened. However, the proud Ming Chengzu probably never dreamed that the Ming Dynasty, which the 16 emperors of his old Zhu family had maintained for 276 years, would be completely destroyed by the descendants of this Jurchen. History is ultimately more absurd than fantasy novels.
