[Highly praised by Yi Zhongtian! Understand the fate of a single speck of dust in the vast sweep of time, and see the crashing waves hidden behind ordinary years. A classic that changed how Chinese people read.]
In 1587, the fifteenth year of the Wanli reign of the Great Ming, the surface seemed perfectly calm, but this was a pivotal turning point on the empire's path to collapse.
That year, the Spanish Armada was about to set sail, and world history was turning a new page. Meanwhile, the Ming emperor, chief grand secretary, upright official, general, and thinker struggled in vain against their own predicaments. The Wanli Emperor wanted reform but was sidelined by civil officials. After Zhang Juzheng died, his family was stripped of its wealth. Hai Rui's moral stand against corruption got him nowhere. Qi Jiguang had no chance to put his heroism to use. Six figures, six mirrors, revealing how a system that substituted morality for technology reduced every effort to nothing.
