He is a child who wakes up from hunger.
When he was five years old, Wang Shuisheng stood on the slope beside the canal and saw the large ship transporting flowers and stones to the emperor. He didn't know that it was a sign of the decline of the dynasty. He only knew that the boatman's trumpet was very nice and floated far away.
What he doesn't know is that in the rest of his life, he will be like this canal - being crushed by the giant ship of the times, and silently carrying the joys and sorrows forward.
The famine in the first year of Zhenghe, the iron hoof in the Jingkang period, the sister buried with his own hands on the way to escape, the lover who stayed together for a lifetime in the Jiangnan water town, the son who came back lame after the quarrying battle... He just walked through the ninety years like this, watching people around him come and go, gather and disperse, disperse and gather again.
He has no system, no time travel, and no prominent family background. He is just an ordinary person.
But when you follow his eyes and live through the fireworks of the Song Dynasty, you will find that——
It turns out that a life lived by an ordinary person with all his strength is the most magnificent epic in the world.
"The Long River: An Ordinary Man's Life in the Song Dynasty" - an epic that allows you to live again in the Song Dynasty.
