Features: The Fatalists in the Power Struggle of the Qing Dynasty's Imperial Authority—Why Did They Attract Fatal Peril? A book that brings enlightenment and wisdom. This book authentically records the fatal stories of officials and imperial family members, both high and low, during the nearly three centuries of power struggles in the Qing Dynasty. From being strangled by bowstrings to dying under mysterious circumstances, from being poisoned in plots to being enclosed in high walls, imprisoned to death, beheaded, committing suicide by hanging, and even being executed by mass slaughter and burning to ashes—each death style behind the tragedy of the officialdom and the trajectory of the destruction of every vibrant life are heart-stirring and awe-inspiring.
