Taking their stories as a cross-section, we can see a richer life, thereby gaining an understanding and sympathy for the distant era, and truly feeling the warmth and thickness of history.

The study of salt history has always been regarded as one of the important topics in the field of Chinese economic history. The development of the salt industry in the Tang Dynasty was inherited from the Han, Wei, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and started from the Song and Yuan Dynasties. Due to the An-Shi Rebellion, the Salt Law was established and the monopoly system was fully implemented, which had a profound impact on Chinese history. The development of the salt industry and salt politics is in sync with the overall changes in the country and society. The operation of salt involves the construction and direction of the political system, principles and policies, and is a major issue affecting the destiny of the country.

Jiaqing was an emperor with a rather low sense of existence. When people mentioned him, what people could think of was the phrase Heshen fell and Jiaqing was full. What Jiaqing took over from his father Qianlong, who was overjoyed at success, loved ostentation, and indulged in hedonism in his later years, was a world where the external airs were not much reduced, but the internal pockets were exhausted, as well as a corrupt and eroded bureaucracy. As a mediocre and declining leader, he has neither the ability to carry out drastic reforms nor the courage to change the status quo of bureaucrats. He can only watch the country's irreparable decline. "The Eighteen Years of Jiaqing: The Decline of the Qing Dynasty" takes the power transfer between Qianlong and Jiaqing, the liquidation of Heshen and other historical events as the entry point, and shows the Chinese society in the Jiaqing era from multiple levels such as politics, economy, culture, military, as well as Jiaqing's personal character and ruling style.

The emperors of the Northern Wei Dynasty were not only the emperors of the Chinese imperial state, but also the khans of the nomadic conquest groups in Inner Asia. Their historical activities were the collision, fusion and rebirth of multiple cultural traditions. The so-called "old capital system" of the Northern Wei Dynasty is clearly part of the Inner Asian tradition. This book starts from the Daibei factors in the Northern Wei emperor's enthronement ceremony, and extends it to the Heaven-sacrifice ceremony in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the power inheritance crisis in the early Liao Dynasty, the Tangzi's sacrifice to Heaven in the Qing Dynasty, etc. On the one hand, it observes the encounter, collision and variation between the Tuoba Xianbei political tradition and the Chinese tradition, and on the other hand, it examines the connection between the old Xianbei customs (the old capital system) and Inner Asia's political tradition. The inward-migrating Inner Asian people who played an important role in Chinese history were, on the one hand, deeply influenced by Chinese culture, and on the other hand, they inherited and adhered to some Inner Asian cultural traditions to a greater or lesser extent. Quite a few of these Inner Asian traditions have been forgotten or deformed in historical records, making them vague and difficult to identify. Therefore, cleaning up these remaining clues has become a task that can fully demonstrate the diversity and richness of history. There is undoubtedly huge room for rereading history from an Inner Asian perspective.

In 466 AD, Emperor Ming of the Song Dynasty, Liu Yu, and his nephew Liu Zixun, who proclaimed themselves emperor in Xunyang, stood side by side. The civil war spread to almost the entire Liu Song Dynasty, and then evolved into a war with the Northern Wei Dynasty. Wang Zhong'er, who was born into a middle-level bureaucratic family in the Southern Dynasties, was forced to get involved, and his family was ruined. Two years later, he was robbed and became an ordinary maid of Pingcheng Palace at the age of thirty. However, her fate accidentally came into contact with the "child is valued until mother dies" system, and she was accidentally involved in the whirlpool of power struggle. She became a key figure in raising two generations of emperors as a palace maid and a bhikshuni, and lived in the court of the Northern Wei Dynasty for fifty-six years. Professor Luo Xin used epitaphs and other historical materials to tell the story of Wang Zhonger's long and ups and downs life, and used her eyes to see the era in which she lived. He restored the emperor, concubines, relatives, courtiers, eunuchs and maids to specific people, and saw them facing each other. The joy, fear, arrogance, and despair of power... As the life story of Wang Zhonger unfolds, there is also the nearly eighty-year history of the Northern Wei Dynasty from Emperor Xianwen and Emperor Xiaowen to Emperor Xuanwu and Emperor Xiaoming. Of course, there are also many people swept by the stormy waves of the times. We pay attention to ordinary people in distant times because they are part of real history. Without them, history would be incomplete and unreal.

Happy, the owner of Qin Tomb No. 11 In Sleeping Tiger Land. He was born in the era of Qin Shi Huang, three years older than Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng, died four years after Qin Shi Huang completed the great cause of unifying China, and died seven years earlier than Qin Shi Huang.

The author connects the scattered materials together, trying to piece together a joy of being a human being, and finding joy in a distant and unfamiliar world. Imagine that you are standing in the position of Xi, seeing the world he lives in through his eyes, and describing the imperial ruling machine that an ordinary person or the ruled directly faces: through the household registration system, the military merit system, the militarized arrangement of neighborhoods, and the integrated military and political administration. The system fixes each Guizhou capital at a specific position in the national control system, allowing them to serve in the army, receive titles for meritorious service, pay rent, and monitor each other. When necessary or advantageous, they report on fellow soldiers and neighbors. They also share life and death on the battlefield, forming a living community. At the same time, this book strives to present several aspects of a humble individual's life in the great historical process of Qin Shihuang's unification of China, several individual-centered silhouettes in the great era, and several individual particles that can only be discovered with great difficulty in the historical structure where the overall pattern is relatively stable but the micro-environment is constantly changing.
