The Ming Dynasty was the pinnacle of the development of China's agricultural civilization. There was an unprecedentedly prosperous market culture and commercial civilization, a mature and complete political system - the cabinet, determined scholar-bureaucrats, lonely and helpless monarchs, and low-level people fighting for their destiny... However, a dynasty that pushed Confucian civilization to the extreme and strictly followed Confucian behavioral norms, a dynasty with extremely developed commercial civilization and the advent of the industrial era, a dynasty with all indicators reaching critical points in the agricultural era, collapsed suddenly in 1645! "The Field of Power in the Ming Dynasty" strives to present a true and majestic Ming Dynasty era with objective, dignified writing techniques and a different perspective, and explores the most essential reasons for the rise and fall of the dynasty and the demise of the Ming Dynasty from an institutional and economic perspective. "The Power Field of the Ming Dynasty" focuses on the struggle between monarchs and ministers, especially the Jiajing and Wanli dynasties, which reflects the political characteristics and bureaucratic contradictions of the Ming Dynasty.

"Wanli Korean War" adopts the approach of two lines of macro and micro going hand in hand, focusing on the war situation. Rather than a specific war. The macro aspect mainly describes several major battles and war situations between the Ming army and the Japanese army; the micro aspect mainly describes the story of the Korean rebels and the Ming Dynasty Jin Yiwei fighting against the Japanese invaders. It not only shows the grand war scenes, but also expresses the details and emotions in the war through small characters.

In the process of world history, the original China did not lag behind at the starting line. China did not lag behind in the Enlightenment, the prototype of the cabinet and constitutional monarchy, and the emergence of capitalism! The Ming Dynasty was a free, tolerant and unrestrained dynasty. There are mature and complete institutional cabinets, helpless monarchs, wallowing and crazy thinkers, scholar-bureaucrats with flamboyant personalities, and little people with great ambitions and sacrifices who dare to make the sun and moon change the sky. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and ordinary people all encountered the best partners and the best opponents in this dynasty. The game between the king and his ministers, the confrontation between loyalty and traitor, and the intellectuals in the government and in the opposition were all vividly performed in this era.

The Ming Dynasty was the peak dynasty in the development of China's agricultural civilization. It had a mature and complete political system - the cabinet, there was a business civilization that subverted agricultural civilization, there was an unprecedentedly prosperous market culture, there were determined scholar-bureaucrats, there were fierce debates and open-minded Confucianism, there were lonely and helpless monarchs, and there were low-level people fighting for their fate.
