After reading it three times, this book is really good. The design of official positions and wars in the article, and the choice of words and sentences show that the author has a profound background and has put a lot of effort into it. Characters such as Cheng Ying, Xiao Zhan, Xiao Ziyu, Qin Zhushu, etc. Are all very well portrayed. Cheng Ying grew up as an orphan and became a general, and finally a queen. Xiao Zhan was a playboy before the fall of the country. After the fall of the country, he transformed into a qualified emperor and survived a catastrophe. The transformation and growth history of these two characters is very exciting. In fact, it was the first prince and Xuancheng who touched me a lot. The first prince said he was cowardly. According to the meaning of the article, the affair with the palace concubine may not be false. Let's say he was kind. In order to protect himself from suspicion, he cut off his own arm with a glass of poisonous wine and poisoned a loyal humerus minister. He died again in less than half an hour. It is really sad. And Xuancheng, there is no one who can achieve this level as a treacherous minister. After a failed political struggle, he can come back to stir up troubles again and leave the crumbling Dachu in disrepair. He has such ability but he doesn't use it on the right path. It's a shame, it's hateful!
