Of all the historical novels about the Ming Dynasty, the one I most want to read about is Zhu Biao. It's a pity no one writes about him. Why not? Because aside from his early death, Zhu Biao was practically a perfect person—benevolent, a man of both literary and military talent.
With so many drawbacks to the enfeoffment system, why did Zhu Yuanzhang still enfeoff princes? In the early Ming Dynasty, three major problems plagued Zhu Yuanzhang. First, the external situation is not optimistic. Although the Ming army's northern expedition overthrew the Yuan dynasty and recovered Han territories, it failed to completely annihilate the remnants of the Northern Yuan who had…

Zhu Biao: Just passing by, please sign in!
Here's a suggestion: the primary responsibility of the Crown Prince and Emperor is to govern the country and guide its moral, agricultural, and technological development, not to be artisans. The Emperor and Crown Prince don't need to invent anything. They only need to govern by doing nothing. Inventions can be handled by skilled craftsmen from the Ministry of Works.
I've read a lot of novels from the Ming Dynasty, but I don't really like many of them. This book happens to be one of them, and what makes it different is that the author uses his own unique understanding to write about some things that happened in the social context of the Ming Dynasty.
I can really relate to the character now, He Shengming's acting is great!
Having read so many books, few accurately pinpoint the fatal flaw that led to the downfall of the Ming Dynasty. Some say it was due to corrupt officials, eunuch rule, natural disasters, and incompetent rulers. I just want to say that these are all superficial phenomena; they couldn't cause the dynasty's demise.
Expel the Tartars and restore China
The handsome crown prince
To be honest, I've never understood why so many characters in Ming and Qing dynasty novels are so fond of the colonial theme. History has clearly proven that this is a path to certain destruction, so why the fascination? Even setting aside the fact that China itself was once a victim of this system, even if the Ming and Qing dynasties lacked advanced productivity and technology, they could have…
