Chinese Living Rules

Wu Han

138K06

If a person wants to survive in society, he must abide by the society's rules of survival. In the past dynasties of China, the emperor had his own rules for living, officials had their own rules for officials, and the common people had their own rules for living. Everyone struggled and lived within the rules of the game set by the society at that time. In the feudal society, the emperor came from all over the world and was worshiped by thousands of people. In order to maintain the ancestral foundation, he also had to compete with everyone; the officials were superior to others and had infinite glory in appearance, but they also accompanied the emperor like a tiger and were on tenterhooks all day long; the people always thought that it was good to be ordinary and stick to their duties, but they did not want to be exploited at all levels. The famous historian Wu Han interprets the survival rules of ancient Chinese people from a historical perspective, summarizes their survival wisdom and experiences and lessons, and uses history to draw lessons from the present.

With the emperor's acquiescence and connivance, these spy organizations such as Jin Yiwei and Dongxi Factory grew wildly in the Ming Dynasty. Coupled with the development of centralization at its peak during the Ming Dynasty, it became a period with the most numerous and powerful spy agencies in Chinese history. Under the old political system, compared with the ruled people, the emperor's status was not isolated, but was always on the edge of danger. Under the sacred throne of dignity, a volcano was always brewing to erupt. In order to maintain their rule, they had to use every means of suppression. Open criminal laws, military schools, and courts were not enough and inconvenient to use. They also needed special organizations, special prisons, and special detectives that created an atmosphere of terror to monitor every suspicious person. In the Ming Dynasty, the special organizations that performed these special tasks were the Jinyiwei and the Dongxi Factory. As the spokesperson of the "secret politics" of the Ming Dynasty, people have had a vague understanding of the history and functions of these three agencies for a long time. This book adopts a rigorous and fair attitude towards history and is based on real historical materials. It introduces the development and evolution of these three major spy agencies in detail, digs into the truth hidden under the surface of the terrifying politics of Jinyiwei and Dongxi Factory in the Ming Dynasty, and profoundly reveals the various contradictions and drawbacks of the Ming Dynasty and the reasons for its rise and fall.
