Mysteries of the Qing Dynasty's Twelve Emperors and Their Harem

"You have to love someone who is good in his own right." This sentence becomes concrete at this moment. My favorite was Yongzheng before, but after reading this book, my emotional balance tipped quietly and I fell deeply in love with Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi ascended the throne as a young man. Faced with heavy state affairs and an unstable political power, he chose to work hard and study hard. What moved me even more was Emperor Kangxi's management of the harem. In such a hierarchical feudal society, as the emperor, he respected every concubine in the harem equally. He knew well the importance of harmony in the harem to the stability of the country, so he thought of many ways to balance the emotions of his concubines and let them live in harmony. He even chose not to have a queen in order not to cause disputes in the harem. And Emperor Kangxi's sons were all outstanding. The dragon gives birth to nine sons, each of whom is different. This not only shows the excellent genes of Emperor Kangxi, but also reflects his careful cultivation and teaching of his children. Emperor Kangxi - such an almighty monarch who knew how to govern a country, manage a family, and raise children. How to make people not love you? In addition, a problem was discovered. It seems that since ancient times, those women who have devoted all their feelings have not died well, while those women who pursue careers have won in the end. So what exactly does marriage bring to women? To no avail. In short, the inspiration for me is: Girls, never let love become everything in your life, otherwise you will be doomed.

As the book says, studying the harem can give us a more comprehensive understanding of the emperor. I have been married for many years, and when I read this book, I think of my own family. Emperors also have parents who have shortcomings! Moreover, the author tells it very vividly. For example, the part about Nurhaci divorcing his wife and killing his son made me feel like I was watching a TV series. Recommend!
