- Reading “The Ming dynasty that thing” Four Thoughts

During the Spring Festival, the time to read it again, “the Ming Dynasty that thing,” the fourth book. What a feeling Jiajing busy times, a wonderful time. Not to read a little tired, if not during the busy Lunar New Year, it is to read one breath, and finally a few hours before tone finish.

Later, I was wondering why you want one go read it? This is my third or fourth read. History of flesh and blood characters who, those wonderful stories, smooth strokes while the moon is the place attracted me, but after reading the speech is thought for a moment, “the Ming Dynasty that thing,” the rules and layout is likely to be important factors .

The most obvious is the story of Jiajing period is two lines, one is the court of political struggle, another one is fighting the southeast coast of Resistance Against Japan. If it is deflated, said shriveled blossoms 2, with each one, then it is to tell the author is to separate the two parts of things to write. Obviously, the “next” four not do that, but associated through the clues between the two linked.

“Ming” wrote the 11th chapter four, “courage” when a tough guy to write the first Ming Yang Jisheng of tragic heroism, Yan Song Yang Jisheng to death must be caused by the use of a memorial to the throne, the memorial to the throne on the certain death of two persons, The memorial to the throne is to the south Zhao Wenhua, it leads south to the south of the story … …

Then, they begin to talk about Hu Zongxian, Qi Jiguang and others Invasions in the cause … … until the 17th chapter, “the starting point of famous” end of time, Qi Jiguang recruits, training recruits at the same time, a greater crisis has pounce over, but the cause of this crisis is the Question and so on and in front this time Zhao Wenhua Zhang echoed up to 12, the 18th chapter began to outline just some of the acts done it before Zhao Wenhua, and then letting leads back to court fight, after the narrative, because the court and the trail connecting the South are more so on the parallel up.

This is a fairly large structure, if the daily updates from around 1600 that the word of view, it was the middle of the content may be at least two or three months, across such a long time, so many stories, the structure would go so delicate, read really feels very smooth, with no sensory impairments. I remember a reader, read Invasions from the South, when the struggle returned to the court, he used exaggerated comments to the effect that: “In the past the moon, such a sophisticated structure, is simply the master mind; then the moon, you have and fully integrated with the Ming Dynasty. “If it is not a large quantity of information on the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible to write out such a large structure subtle.

Look at this story line before, a lot of big things Jiajing period, such as “big on ritual event”, and came close to being maids Jiajing to kill, even if I am not very familiar with the history of the people, they know little. But “that” clearly did not follow these four big things to the article series, but Jiajing period followed a rise of another powerful Grand Secretary, Beat This leads, first of the Yang Ting and Jiajing not fight, fighting ruthlessly for the time , leads to Zhang Cong, when he was proud of the time, leads summer words, proud of Zhang Cong raises Xu Jie, Xia Yan Yan Song proud when it leads to further conversation by YAN father and son, who raises cattle at that time to six , the focus of the fifth book in paving the way characters.

Think about the later chapters, especially those things Ming, complicated and unorganized, many clues, “that” six main line which is my impression that the Donglin party, no matter how fierce the struggle in front of you, no matter how you Yandang nausea, Gu Xian played from the moment, all the stories, all things are and the sense of the undercurrents. The rise of the Qing Dynasty was not consistent, but the party’s rise and fall according to Tung Lin struggles ups and downs to timely appear, because this thing is written in the Ming Dynasty who, not after the money that thing.

Recently the display section of the structure, should the House of Flying Daggers is the Yang Sichang planned. Starting from 1727 writes today (1736), leads to Chongzhen Emperor, then Translate the extraction temperature from the body of benevolence, writes Jen packing body temperature, body temperature and how the destruction of it Jen? Leads to Qian, and Qian’s appearance does not seem to write Qian, but was after the fall of temperature ren the most direct beneficiaries – Yang Sichang and his House of Flying Daggers plans! (And here again one of the reasons for the fall of the Ming Dynasty there is an important explanation). In fact it around the back, come back around to write it? Circle back to the Ming and farmers to write the military struggle.

Let us recall, think of more Ming and farmers, the military struggle is what leads it? There’s always some big shot to write. Has been followed for this line, this line, the people inside the military as the Ming Dynasty, Li Zi Cheng and Zhang Xianzhong gravedigger who is temporarily placed in a secondary position to write, and the main court of the few written by Meng by: Cao Chao, Hong Chengchou, Zuo Liangyu, Chen Qiyu, Lu as rise, followed by Yang Sichang played, in fact, the time to see the activities of the military people that these big shot leads. Because it is written in the Ming Dynasty that thing, so how do the Ming Dynasty (the big shot leads) is the major, not written by the late Ming China forces of those thing, so this can also explain why the military is not very much people detailed description.

Several other books, there are many similar and the main line of major structural regulation. Reading “The Ming dynasty that thing,” Think about the layout inside the structure, the most important clue, or the Ming Dynasty that thing, even if it is cumbersome in the late Ming and so many clues, there is always a main line, through the main line to the layout , so that readers not be deemed as capital in the history of many foggy, and always have a read on impulse.

Of course, this is just my reading of the feeling, as written in the year when the moon is not such a thought, then I do not know.
