Features: The essence of power struggles is a game between human nature and human nature. In the power struggles within the court, it is a clash of strategy and skill between people. This book selects ten representative cases of power struggles for the prime minister from Chinese history, telling the story of a competition between a group of people in the position of "under one person but above ten thousand." When they meet on a narrow path, the stage is only one, and there is only one winner. Above them is the magic wand of the emperor, and below them are the covetous eyes of court officials. They must pour their hearts into the state and the country while also guarding against others' suppression and treachery. Thus, wisdom, strategy, and courage become their crucial means of survival.
