Three Hundred Years of Jinyang

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were great achievements and troubled times. In Taiyuan City, an old servant who had been with Li Yuan for fifty-two years recorded with his eyes the entire process of the founding of the Tang Dynasty. His name is Chi Jin, and he is the shadow of the Li family. From the rise of troops in Taiyuan to the proclaiming of emperor in Chang'an, from the Xuanwu Gate incident to the prosperous age of Zhenguan - those major events in the history books became vivid moments in his mouth: Li Yuan's anxiety in circles under the moon, the seventeen-year-old ambition of the second son, the undercurrent of the contest between the prince and the King of Qin, the fatal arrow of the Xuanwu Gate... "What the historian writes may not be true. What I write may not be true." This book is written in the classical chapter style, observing the situation of the Tang Dynasty through the eyes of an old servant. A piece of dust-laden past, a different founding epic.
