The Zhao Family's Proud Sun

The Zhao Clan's Jade Wall Trilogy, Book One. The story of the Zhao clan begins here.

"To understand Chinese civilization, look to the Spring and Autumn period; to understand the great principles of that age, look to Jin."

He was the first chief minister of Jin to hold both military and political power. Under his hand, the Zhao clan rose above all others and seized control of Jin.

He acted with force and resolve, striking like thunder, fierce as the blazing sun. Yet even holding power in his hands could not shield him from the whims of fate: his true love was caught up in the struggle, and a friend who entrusted him with a child died at the hands of the enemy...

A legendary life, blazing and formidable. Triumph and loss, honor and disgrace, reflected one another.
