This book (a volume with 144 pages and 400 words) is not divided into volumes and was written by Dong Yingju. Yingju, courtesy name Chongxiang, was born in Min County, Fujian Province. He was a Jinshi in the Wuxu period (26th year of Wanli Dynasty) in the Ming Dynasty. During his tenure as an official, he returned to Li twice: one in the early 1940s of Wanli to return home; the other in the early years of Chouzhen's reign, he resigned from his post and lived idle. The former period coincides with the Japanese invasion of Taiwan by Murayama and others; the latter period coincides with the time when Zheng Zhilong was pacified and tasked with suppressing the "sea pirates". He was registered one after another, and he was involved in fighting Japanese and suppressing bandits. The "Collection of Chongxiang" written in the 40th year of Wanli preceded the "Strict Sea Ban", and later included discussions on planning and preventing Japanese invaders, as well as books on current affairs with Shen Yourong, Huang Chengxuan, Han Zhongyong, Nan Juyi, and Xiong Wencan. They are all rare historical materials related to the Fujian Sea and Taiwan in the Ming Dynasty. This book contains five or five selected articles, including "A Strict Sea Forbidden", "Preparing for Japanese Guan Views", "Huang Zhongcheng (Chengxuan) Surveying and Revealing Contributions", "Zhongcheng Huang Gong (the same predecessor) The Beginning and End of Japanese Contributions" and "Books with Xiong Futai (Wen Can)", etc., Which are particularly valuable as historical materials. At the end of the book, I also searched for Mao Ruizheng's "Huang Ming Xiangxu Lu", "Japan", "Ryukyu", "Helan", Zhu Guozhen's Yiyongzhuan Essays", "Tung Chung Detective Japanese", "Ming Shenzong Records" and "Inspection of Fujian Supervision" "Censor Li Lingyun's Memorial", Zhang Xie's "East-Western Examination" and "Anecdotal Examination" (one piece), Hao Weiye's "Supplement to the Sui Kou Chronicles" and "Zhangquan Haibu", Gu Zuyu's "Miscellaneous Readings of Historical Fangyu" and "Penghu Island", "Ryukyu", Chen In-suk's "Huangmingshifalu", etc.
Reader comments
The historical events mentioned in this book are very similar to my experience. When I first gave birth to my child, I also felt a heavy responsibility. As the book says, it's important to nip problems before they happen. This book made me realize that we need to take timely measures to avoid the problem from expanding. At the same time, it also makes me more grateful for my current life and hopes to create a better future for my children.
