    Three generations of perseverance couldn't withstand the collapse of an era. In the forty-fourth year of the Wanli Emperor's reign, Li Zhaowu sat in his office signing documents, two letters clutched in his hand. One was a letter from his son announcing his success in the imperial examinations; the other was a military dispatch from the Ministry of War announcing Nurhaci's founding of the Ming Dynasty. He didn't know that thirty years later, his grandson would stand atop Beijing's city walls, watching the rebel army's siege ladders slowly approach the ramparts. He also didn't know that a simple, honest boy pulling a plow in the fields would one day throw himself against a warhorse, shielding himself from a hail of arrows. He certainly didn't know that a girl in a pale yellow dress would wait for someone in a willow grove, waiting her entire life. But he knew one thing: this family had to be protected. So three generations guarded a city, a country, and some people. Did they succeed? —No. The Ming Dynasty fell, the Qing army entered the pass, and those they protected died one after another. But while they were guarding, they didn't know the outcome. They only knew that as long as the city walls were there, they had to defend them; as long as their families were there, they had to protect them; as long as their brothers were there, they had to save them. As for the outcome, that's up to fate. But in this book, you'll also see other people—those who speak passionately and eloquently in court, yet kneel faster than anyone else when the city falls. Their "righteousness" is written in memorials, engraved on stone tablets, but not on the city walls. Those called "pure officials" in history books are best at labeling others as "misleading the country." When it comes to actually making a decision, they remain silent—because silence absolves them of responsibility, and they can continue to be "pure officials" after a new dynasty. But you'll also see other people—those "warriors" they despise, those eunuchs they call "eunuchs," those petty officials they accuse of "scheming," who stand tall at the last moment. You'll meet Lu Xiang-sheng in the cold wind of Jia Village, dressed in hemp clothing, telling his soldiers, "This is where we die." Historical records only describe him as "loyal and valiant," but you will see how he stood tall in dire straits, how he used his death to ring the final bell for that era. You will see Li Guozhen, with a white cloth wrapped around his forehead, gritting his teeth and saying "It's alright, keep fighting" amidst the rain of arrows at Xizhimen. Some say he "feigned loyalty, hoping to escape punishment," but you will see how he returned to the city walls after being dismissed, how he smiled as he drank the poison at Donghuamen. You will see Chen Yuanyuan, Wang Chengen, Song Xianze, Liu Zongmin… those who only appear in a single line in history books, live their entire lives in this book. This is an epic of ordinary people. There are no magic powers, no defying fate, only a group of ordinary people who desperately stood tall in the torrent of history. If you are a reader of *Those Things About the Ming Dynasty*, if you enjoy the weight of *The Ming Dynasty 1566*, if you are willing to step into that turbulent era and see how those people glossed over by history books lived—

    This is my first time writing a book, so there are bound to be many problems. There's a bit too much setup in the beginning, and the sentences feel a bit amateurish, which I accept. But I don't want to mislead you with promises like "it'll definitely be a masterpiece later" or "the ratings will rise." I can only guarantee that the story isn't just something I wrote randomly; the main characters and the subsequent plot are all well-developed. If you happen to enjoy slow-burn, growth-oriented fantasy, you can give it a try.

    Lu Mingyuan, six years my senior, is the youngest president of a top jewelry company in the capital. His features are deep and aloof, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs. His aura is imposing and noble. As he strides into the president's private elevator, even his breathing carries an air of asceticism. I first met him in the waiting room for an interview at his design company. He was wearing a sharply tailored black suit with a black silk shirt and a dark blue tie.

    Using the fewest words possible, I recommend the right books. I am Lin Tian Nana. The first novel, *The Book of Human Skin*, suggests you don't treat the protagonist like a human. 🤦 The second novel, *A Mother Teresa's Mistake*. The third novel is a bit special; you'll have to read it yourself to find out more [you'll see][you'll see]. While the logic in these three books is a bit weak, they are still quite remarkable.

    [Slow pace x Sweet at first, then bittersweet x Ensemble growth x Historical political intrigue x Everyone focused on their careers x Patriotism x Unexpected twists of fate x Mutual redemption x Sibling affection x Childhood sweethearts x Teacher-student conflict x No female rivalry] Beneath the surface of court intrigue and power struggles, the core of this book remains "love" and "growth." There are no truly evil characters; everyone is pushed forward by fate, and no one's ending is inevitable. It's not a traditional "feel-good" novel, because every "win" comes at the cost of "loss." Those who are lost will not return, but those who remain can still move forward. Dedicated to those of us who are unafraid of loss and bravely forge our own paths. [Progress] Currently in the second volume of the main storyline, with a backlog of chapters and stable updates.
