Zhang Juzheng was an extraordinary minister who emerged during the Ming Dynasty, when the illness was difficult to recover and everything was in urgent need of renewal. His governance program was highly praised in this book, not because of its content, but because it was groundbreaking, and the timing when it was proposed was always incredible. Not only that, he is not afraid of making enemies in the government and the public, and he does not care about dissident opinions; he is willing to work hard for his political ideals and save the building from collapse. This novel restores Zhang Juzheng's years in government and opposition, and the narrative language is plain and friendly; it takes us to recreate the glorious life of this loyal minister.

Zhang Juzheng is a great figure in Chinese history. When I read the Fifteenth Year of Wanli, I had a certain understanding of this character and admired him very much. This book mainly tells the story of Zhang Juzheng's experience of supporting his young master, establishing the New Deal, rectifying the administration of officials, etc. During the Wanli Period. After ten years of hard work and strict reforms, the Wanli Dynasty became the most powerful period in the 276 years of the Ming Dynasty, but in the end he suffered the "humiliation of death". This book uses a novel to narrate the ups and downs of Zhang Juzheng's life, showing a vivid picture of the ups and downs of the declining dynasty's officialdom.
Zhang Juzheng, a generation of Ming Dynasty Prime Minister, implemented a series of reform measures during his 10 years as the first minister, consolidating national defense, rectifying officialdom, improving finance, and reforming taxation. It was his reforms that made the Wanli Dynasty become the most powerful period in the Ming Dynasty. However, although his reforms made the country rich and powerful, they also affected the interests of too many people. In the heart of the emperor, his monopoly of power was also a manifestation of his contempt for royal power. After his death, he was deprived of his posthumous title, his family was confiscated, and his imperial edicts were taken back for four generations. His crimes were reported to the world. Even his family members were persecuted and the officials he promoted were abandoned. It is very sad that a famous minister of a generation met such an end. If Zhang Juzheng knew what happened after his death, I wonder if he would still devote himself to this country like this.
The storyline is attractive, the storytelling method is easy to understand, the story is told clearly and clearly, and the characters are also very full and three-dimensional. In addition, by reading this book, in addition to learning how to use words and sentences, you can also learn how to deal with problems. From the characters in the book, you can learn to shape and improve your own values and outlook on life. It's quite good and worth reading.
