A Reading List for the Twenty-Four Solar Terms
Works I've read and really enjoyed. I hope we can share these unusual stories and discuss the questions they raise. I won't give specific ratings, since different readers will reach different conclusions. It's better to see for yourself than to rely on what others say. I'll add recommended books if I've read them and think they're good. If a book isn't on the list, it just doesn't suit my current tastes. For now, the list is mostly historical and xianxia web novels, with a few science fiction, w

Books I like
Mainly Recommending Late Ming Novels!
No marriage alliances, no reparations, no ceded territory, no tribute. The emperor guards the frontier; the ruler dies defending the state. After the Yuan dynasty fell, the Ming was established by the Han people on Chinese soil. Its founding improved the status of the Han, restoring the majority population to a commoner's standing and creating favorable conditions for China's future development. Though the Ming realm was smaller than the Yuan's, at its height it held the Mongols in check to the

This book is really well written, close to history, and the characters are delicately drawn. I hope the author will continue to do so.
The quality of late Ming Dynasty literature is much better than the cool literature.
Great book! It's a miracle that you can find a book like this for free! ! ! !
I wanted to laugh when I saw the non-system writing in the introduction. Without a system or a cheating device, what you mentioned above would be possible. In the late Ming Dynasty, there will be constant natural and man-made disasters. How can it be solved by what you call the whole government system?
In the eighth year of Chongzhen's reign, you are still taking your time. It's ridiculous. The civil service group likes to take your time the most. It's a big corruption. This is a confrontation between interest groups. If you can't get benefits, ghosts will help you. You have no money and no soldiers. Do you think you are the red side? You can fool a bunch of patriots just by relying on your ideas
A lot of flaws
When I saw the author's section about the investigation of Liu Kongzhao, I found it hard to read. An imperial censor issued an impeachment memorial, and then directly sent people to inspect Liu's house. There was no joint trial by the Dali Yuan's Criminal Department. How many people would be convinced by your approach? No need for procedural justice? In governing a country, most of the time we have to pursue uprightness. If we rely on some private secrets every day, we may succeed for a while, but in the end people will be distracted!
I also saw a group of keyboard warriors bragging about how much better they could be if they were forced to be Chongzhen. First of all, if you are really capable, why bother to come here to brag? You must at least have mayor-level abilities and experience. You only know how advanced and reasonable the various ideas are. What about the people who do things? Your bragging makes me suspect that you cannot manage a village well.
A classic, worth reading again and again.
A classic, worth reading again and again.
If you simmer it on low heat, you will hang yourself in a few years. If you simmer it for a few years, you can hang yourself with peace of mind! You still don't know what went wrong at the end of Ming Dynasty! Businessmen and officials don't pay taxes, and the state puts 90% of the taxes directly on the poor. Do the poor have any reason not to resist? There is also extremely improper employment. During the Tianqi period, the Liao Dynasty had only more than 4 million yuan. Chongzhen asked Yuan to come to power and the Liao Dynasty had more than 8 million yuan. After all his efforts, he was still finished!
In the late Ming Dynasty, there was actually some help. 1. Issue an imperial edict to all clans across the country, allowing them to recruit troops. 2. Issue an imperial edict to allow them to lead troops and clear the emperor's side. 3. When an imperial edict is issued, each vassal king directly controls all local military and horse rights. 4. When an imperial edict is issued, the local army does not obey the control of the local vassal king. The vassal king has the right to kill first and report later. 5. All eunuchs from all over the country return to the palace. At your disposal. 6. National Jinyiwei. All return to the palace. At your disposal. ~~ It all depends on who is in charge of the world. The emperor looked at too many people. Nothing can be done. Personal comfort is not guaranteed. Government orders do not leave the imperial city.
