By chance, I read that Xu Xiake's eldest son, Xu Qi, was exterminated during the Jiangnan Slave Rebellion in the late Ming Dynasty. Most of Xu Xiake's manuscripts were lost. Later, the concubine Li Ji, who was not recognized by his family, traveled around to collect his father's manuscripts and became a key figure in the survival of Xu Xiake's travel notes to this day. I really want to write about such a small person caught in the cracks of history. Please read the story of a modern physical geography researcher who traveled through time and became Li Ji, the concubine of Xu Xiake. Against the background of the slave revolution in Jiangnan from the late Chongzhen period to the early Shunzhi period in the late Ming Dynasty, he saved, protected and revised Xu Xiake's travel notes based on the consciousness of protecting human civilization.
