Synopsis
Introduction She took in an official slave who was covered with injuries, gave her medicine, laid out a soft mattress, and lit some soothing incense, saying, "I don't want your life, I want you to live and stay with me." She thought she just had a maid. Later, when this maid met a bandit on the mountain road during autumn hunting, she protected her behind her and drew a bow that was taller than a person. Later, this maid led 3,000 new troops and carried hundreds of thousands of Qing troops at the foot of Shogunate Mountain - and won. Later, people in the court said that the maid was already the most feared general in Jiangnan. This is a story about how three people formed a family. The young lady, the maid, and the judge - three people who were abandoned by the old order, wrote a family rule under the lamp in the back house of Suzhou, and they have never been separated since then. Together they translated books, trained troops, governed counties, built dikes, instituted sea bans, and approved memorials. The old system said that women could not hold the army, but they said that soldiers were trained; the old system said that businessmen could not discuss politics, but they said that taxes and banks had been raised; the old system said that power could only be passed on to men, so they said that they should write a new rule. One million words, written about war, court, system, reform, and the three people returning to the same dining table countless nights and dipping their feet in the same copper basin. "The three of them sat in the dusk, with the branches and leaves of the old locust tree rustling above their heads." - From Suzhou to Jiangyin to Nanjing, they have been under the same tree for eleven years. Intention: The intention is: to grow new rules in the cracks of the old order; to maintain those who remain unchanged on the high platform of power. This novel describes how a family becomes an institution, and how three people step by step from being abandoned by the old order to a position where they can rewrite the old order. It is written that Locke's book cannot directly govern the country, but it can be translated, discussed, and put on the ballot of the Advisory Board under the lamp in the back house; it is written that the microscope cannot directly overturn the verdict, but it can let a policeman say "I made a mistake" in front of the camphor wood box in the Suzhou evidence room; it is written that power can make people feel happy, but "Meditations" can suppress it. It has a fictional shell - the historical background and characters are fictitious, but it has a real core: when a system is changing, how can people ensure that they do not deform? What it wants to say is: Change does not start from overthrowing the old system, but from doing a specific thing in the gaps of the old system. Build a section of polder, establish a family rule, change a tax system, read a line of files - these things will not change the world immediately, but they will slowly change the people who do these things. And these people are the ones who can ultimately change the system.
