Among them, "Book of Wei" has thirty volumes, "Shu" has fifteen volumes, and "Wu Shu" has twenty volumes, totaling sixty-five volumes. On the basis of respecting historical facts, the author uses concise and beautiful language to draw portraits of the characters of the Three Kingdoms for us. Due to space limitations, it is difficult for the editor to include all the texts of "Three Kingdoms" in one book. In fact, if it is not specifically for the purpose of writing history, there is no need for readers to read the whole article. They only need to chew the essence and use it as a way to see the leopard in the tube, which is enough to "see the past and present in a moment, and care about the world in an instant." "Three Kingdoms" was originally written in classical Chinese. For the convenience of reading, it is now supplemented by vernacular Chinese. If readers can benefit from opening the book, the editor's purpose will be achieved.

"Zuo Zhuan" says: "The great affairs of the country lie in worship and military service." War and army construction have been valued by rulers of all dynasties. In order to meet the needs of military struggle, teaching, and military examinations at that time, in the third year of Yuanfeng (1080), Emperor Shenzong of the Song Dynasty ordered Zhu Fu, the director of the Imperial Academy, and He Qufei, a doctor of martial arts, to select and compile military books. They selected seven military books from more than 340 ancient Chinese military books that were popular at the time: "Sun Tzu's Art of War", "Wu Zi's Art of War", "Sima's Art", "Huang Shigong's Three Strategies", "Wei Liaozi", "Six Tao" and "Tang Taizong Li Weigong's Questions", a total of 25 volumes, as martial arts classics, and designated them as must-read martial arts textbooks. This is the famous "Seven Books of Martial Arts". The compilation and promulgation of the "Seven Books of Martial Arts" was a contribution of the Northern Song Dynasty court to the construction of military theory. It expounds a series of military strategic thoughts and tactical principles, and embodies the insightful insights of ancient Chinese people's understanding of war. Whether in military theory or in war practice, it has had a profound impact on later generations and even the world. Emperor Gaozong of the Southern Song Dynasty also designated the "Seven Books of Martial Arts" as the content of the examination for selecting generals. Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, advocated that "officers' descendants should read martial arts books". In view of the urgent need for military struggle and teaching, he ordered the Ministry of War to engrave the "Seven Books of Martial Arts" and distribute it to relevant officials, senior generals and their descendants for study. Since the 17th century, many reprints and translated and annotated editions have appeared in Japan, while "The Art of War" and "The Art of War by Wu Zi" have become more widely circulated in Europe, Asia and the United States. It is not only the spiritual wealth of the Chinese nation, but also the common spiritual wealth of the people of the world. In this publication, ancient literature scholars and experts were invited to annotate and translate the entire "Seven Books of Military Classics" with brief annotations and simplified translations to assist reading of the original text. We hope that more readers can read and understand "Seven Books of Military Classics" and grasp the ideological connotation and value of Chinese military books.

Zhang Xuecheng's "General Meanings of Literature and History" is a masterpiece of traditional Chinese history. Zhang Xuecheng had only a few works during his lifetime, and his friend Wang Zongyan compiled his works on his behalf. The editions handed down from generation to generation vary greatly in the number of editions and the number of chapters. Mr. Cang Xiuliang worked hard for thirty years to recover Zhang's posthumous writings and compiled "New Edition and New Notes on the General Meanings of Literature and History", which has 176 more articles than Ye Ying's version of "General Meanings of Literature and History" which is currently the most widely circulated.

"History of Greece" is a chronological history written by the ancient Greek historian Xenophon. It mainly records the history of Greece for nearly half a century from the autumn of 411 BC to the summer of 362 BC. The first two volumes are a continuation of Thucydides' unfinished work "History of the Peloponnesian War", while the last five volumes continue to narrate important historical events such as the establishment of the anti-Spartan alliance, the Corinthian War, the rise of Thebes, the "Great King's Peace Edict", and the Battle of Mantinea. The content of the book reflects the evolution of the Greek world from "order" to "disorder", as well as the budding and initial development of the crisis in the city-state system. "History of Greece" is Xenophon's longest and most important historical work, and it is also the work of his most mature period of thought. Because of this book, Xenophon, Herodotus and Thucydides are known as the three major historians of ancient Greece.

"Shangshu", also known as "Book" and "Shu Jing", is a collection of documents in multiple genres and has long been considered the earliest existing history book in China. During the Warring States period, it was generally called "Book", and in the Han Dynasty it was renamed "Shang Shu", which is the "book of ancient times". Because it is one of the Five Classics of Confucianism, it is also called the Book of Books. It is mainly a political order issued by the king when he appoints officials or rewards princes. The text in "Shang Shu" is very ancient and extremely difficult to read. To this end, we have carefully compiled the book "Shangshu Quanjian (Collector's Edition)" and made a smooth and easy-to-understand vernacular translation of the full text to help readers understand the meaning of "Shangshu" and grasp the thoughts in "Shangshu".

Because "Historical Records" was written a long time ago, it contains many uncommon words and difficult-to-understand sentence structures.

"Historical Records" is the first biographical general history in Chinese history. Mr. Lu Xun once praised "Historical Records" as "the swansong of historians, a rhymeless lisao". The first sentence spoke highly of the historical value of "Historical Records", and the latter sentence spoke highly of the literary value of "Historical Records". Reading "Historical Records" can not only enrich historical knowledge, but most importantly, you can use history as a mirror to explore the laws, experiences and lessons of social development and the rise and fall of countries, and find coordinates on the road of life.

However, from the Hundred Schools of Thought in ancient China to utilitarianism, liberalism, and communitarianism in the Western world, the concept of justice has always been chaotic and vague. Xiong Yi focused on the topic of justice and elaborated on it from different aspects in chapters: happiness or justice, what is justice, the dilemma of free will, the dilemma of original sin, Kant's mistakes, great jealousy... With careful thinking, he integrated the relevant thoughts of representative philosophers from ancient and modern times at home and abroad, such as Chinese Confucianism, Taoism, Mohists, as well as Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Montaigne, Spinoza, Rousseau, Adam Smith, Russell, Kant, Hayek, Fromm, Rawls, etc. In the West; and listed a large number of historical cases and literary classics to explore in depth what justice is, where it originates and how to realize justice. This heart-stirring work uses popular, vivid and even literary language to take us into a carefully laid out intellectual labyrinth. In the process of dialogue with sages, we can gain the pleasure of speculation and the enlightenment of wisdom. "Spring and Autumn Days: Imperial Power and Academics in the Traditional Chinese Context": "Spring and Autumn" has long been revered as the supreme holy book of political philosophy in ancient China, and is considered to be the only Confucian classic compiled by Confucius himself. However, the "Spring and Autumn Annals" uses subtle words and great meanings to hide praise and criticism, which is very difficult to understand, especially as it has become more and more complicated after interpretations by classics scholars of the past dynasties. So how did "Spring and Autumn" and related classics play a practical role in an authoritarian society for two thousand years, and even influence the wind and rain? What kind of existence is the Spring and Autumn Period, which has always been regarded as the Chinese spirit? Xiong Yi starts from a murder case in the Tang Dynasty. Through a large number of vivid historical cases, using detailed textual research and meticulous logic, he reveals layer by layer how Chinese classic culture dating back to the Spring and Autumn Period, including "Spring and Autumn", "One Classic and Three Transmissions", "The Analects" and "Laozi", were distorted into tools of power under imperial politics. Xiong Yi plucked thousands of years of historical facts and classics at his fingertips, and allowed emperors, sages, dignitaries, generals, scribes and other people from different eras to have conversations across the air. When readers are immersed in his written world, a clue that stretches for more than two thousand years gradually emerges.
