Starting from the four major mysteries of the late Ming Dynasty - the Hongwan case, we will peek into the gaps in history
In August of the forty-eighth year of Wanli, the Ming Dynasty ushered in its fourteenth emperor, and Prince Zhu Changluo, who had been frightened for more than thirty years, ascended to the throne. But 29 days later, he died suddenly and mysteriously on the dragon bed. During this period, there were no flashes of swords and no traces of trauma or blood. How did he die? Is it "excessive indulgence" that is understated in history books, or is there something else hidden behind it?
This book starts from the perspective of Shen Fu, a small handyman in Honglu Temple, to understand the mutual game between various forces and big figures. Shen Fu relied on his photographic memory to piece together the complicated fragments. In the process of discovering the truth, evidence that his father was framed was also discovered. Whether to reverse the case for his father or continue to pursue the truth, how will he choose...
The major events mentioned in the book seem extremely absurd, but they actually happened. If the truth hurts everyone, it will never see the light of day. Conspiracies are certainly terrible, but what is more terrible than conspiracy is the "combined force" of history.
