Reader comments
Listening to what others say is worse than reading history to prove it.
One of the emperors' chronicles records important events, but the words behind them are unclear. I only know a little bit about them.
Its ambitions, etiquette, geography, literature and art, food and goods, military system, rivers and canals, and criminal law. It can be seen the changes from ancient times to the present, but I still can't read it patiently. As time goes by, I can only read the emperor's chronicle. However, food, goods, and military systems can also be studied, which can increase knowledge.
If you have free time, you will take a leisurely look at it. I'll comment after I watch it again.
Yes, I learned! In the 18th year of Kangxi's reign, my ancestor Qin Songling was a scholar who was first-class in Confucianism and studied Ming history together with others.
That's a good point, it's hard to imagine how it can be read without standard symbols.
