The world is about to be in trouble, and the rivers, lakes, and temples are all in danger.
The maritime ban has not yet been lifted, and people's livelihood is in decline. However, in a corner of Lingnan, a force of change has quietly emerged with the ambition of "opening up people's wisdom, focusing on industry, and establishing a new system." Zhao Tianhao, the young man in white, planned merchants and firearms, hoping to build a country through industry; Lin Yi, the assassin, walked in the shadows and protected morality with his sword; Western scholar Heisenberg brought new ideas such as "constitutional government", "human rights" and "contractual law", igniting the fire of thought and causing disaster.
This is a historical fictional novel set against the background of modern enlightenment and industrial revolution. The work takes the rise and fall of the Lingnan Group as the main line, depicting the collision between ideals and reality, and the game of faith and power. The rise of new workshops and the roar of firearms; the founding of the "Gazette" stirred up ideas; and amid the encirclement and suppression of powerful people and sects, people had to make a choice between "survival" and "seeking change".
When ideals come into reality, passion will eventually turn to ashes.
But beneath the ashes, a new dawn may be gestating.
It is an epic about reason and faith, order and freedom;
It is also a group of idealists who still refuse to bow their heads in desperate situations. It is an elegy for the modern enlightenment written with thoughts and blood.
Reader comments
The overall design is very realistic, and the political, financial and economic logic, timeline, system design, and even fighting actions and war design are all handled very reasonably in the aerial view. The criticism of reality and the pursuit of an ideal political system are hidden in the story. Although the characters are too idealistic, there are at least three Washington-level great men in the protagonist group. It is reasonable to say that it is difficult to have a character who actively limits his power in hundreds of years. But there are more or less flaws, making them look more like real people, and the protagonists are not monolithic, which is good. In addition, it is very rare to be able to establish the image of the villain and side characters through a few side descriptions.
The ending is full of tragedy, and the design of the parliament being kidnapped by public opinion is brilliant. The whole book is a hard-core realistic dream picture. Although the parliament has been kidnapped by public opinion, the constitutional framework has been established, and we can still look forward to the future. The suffering of persistence mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures mentioned at the end of the work can be regarded as spiritual sublimation, but I think it is a bit abrupt, because the protagonist group is fighting for the bottom line goal of protecting the right to life of innocent people, and the high goal of allowing all people to obtain equality and freedom, that is, doing everything they can to prevent innocent people from being involved in the war, and they belong to the passionate group of the world. Although they were forced to accept the failure of this goal in all aspects of politics, diplomacy, and combat, it was too idealistic after all, but it did not change their passionate nature. But the last reflection on the pain of persistence is obviously out of this world, and it seems too cold-blooded to think about it together.
A rare and powerful plot! Reading this book is like drinking fine wine.
One drink is the blood of Jianghu's knife head, the other drink is the plot of chaos in the court.
I read too many cool articles about systems and stuff. Good for a stop. Really enjoy reading a good book about the world in troubled times.
In troubled times, rivers, lakes, and temples are all in danger, but various characters have performed colorful plots for their own missions, purposes, and interests. The novel is rich in content, unconventional, and exciting to watch.
The novel begins with the escort car being hijacked and the escort personnel being killed. Characters gradually appear one by one, and things develop rhythmically. All the characters and events move forward around a main line. The more you read, the more interesting it becomes.
After reading it, the overall feeling is that the content is particularly rich, the author's settings are particularly organized, and the characterization of the characters is particularly delicate. All events and characters are clearly prioritized and organized, and the literary talent is high. Five-star praise
This novel makes readers feel that the author's literary level and historical knowledge are very good, and he has great ability to control the rhythm, characters and events of the novel. It makes you read it with relish, and put it down with endless aftertaste. Like it. Like it.
The more I watch, the more excited I become. I admire the author's writing style, the author's conception, and even more the author's patience. It's not easy to write such a rich plot with clear lines, characters, many events, and perfect acting. Five-star support
It's pretty good-looking, especially the back. It's really good.
The scene is grand and there are many characters, including the son Zhao Tianhao, the assassin Lin Yi, the scholar and many other characters. Through the introduction and content, we can see the author's novel conception and ingenuity. Good reviews
This novel is full of mystery. I love this kind of novel so much. Please give the author more hard work.
The character setting is very successful. There are no flat characters. Everyone has their own personality.
Recommended, it's really good, the writing, characters, plot, etc. Are all impeccable
It's super beautiful. I haven't seen such a beautiful book in a long time. I must like it.

I came here to read the novel because of the lack of books. I didn't expect the novel to be so good, with good reviews and great reading...
More people should read this book, it's so invincible and beautiful.
A rare good book, overall very interesting, suitable for use as electronic mustard
The plot is super good. I rarely read books on this subject, but it is really good.
It's so beautiful. How can I find similar books?
I stayed up late last night and read a lot of this novel. I really enjoyed it.
This book is well written and very attractive. Keep reading and there will be more good books.
It's a really good book. Although I don't like the plot of some chapters very much, overall people can't stop reading it. I support it. I support it.
To be honest, this is the best novel I have ever read. Everyone's image is vivid on the page, the emotions of the characters are very real, the plot connections are also very powerful, and the logic is rigorous.
The rhythm of the plot is relaxed and relaxed, the seemingly plain foreshadowing is full of foreshadowing, and the unexpected twist is reasonable.
It's well written. I almost finished it halfway through and didn't read it. I came back to read it after reading it. It's worth it. It's very interesting.
This is a book that requires you to calm down and read. The more you read, the more you can understand its profound meaning and it has great stamina.
The writing is relatively concise, and the writing style is not sloppy. It is worth reading.
The emotional expression is restrained and strong, and the pain of being unable to speak is more impactful than heart-wrenching crying.
Seeing the plot and suspense slowly unfold later, the design is very exciting
The plot is compact and not procrastinating, with no unnecessary plot points. Every chapter has something to watch, and you can't stop at all! !
