When we talk about emperors, we always think of power struggles amid the clash of arms, the great achievement of unifying the realm, and the pleasures of a thousand beauties. But even the mightiest emperors were human, and they had private lives few people knew about. In this book, I’ll take you on a tour of the very different private affairs of more than 200 Chinese emperors. Note: Although the book draws on historical records, both official and unofficial, much of it is tongue-in-cheek and should not be treated as historical fact. Don’t take it seriously!
