Features: De Wang's life full of legends tells a tragic story. Three "last" figures miraculously reunite—was it astonishing coincidence or historical inevitability? During China's War of Resistance against Japan and the War of Liberation, three pseudoregimes emerged successively: Wang Jingwei's traitorous and treacherous regime, Puyi as the "emperor" of the pseudoregime of Manchukuo, and De Wang's Pseudomongol Autonomous Government. With the end of the two wars, three "last" figures were produced: the last president Li Zongren, the last emperor Puyi, and the last prince De Mochu Dorgol—De Wang. Among these three, only De Wang played such an important role in this extraordinary period of history, and many people may not be fully aware of it. This book, The Legend of the Last Prince, is a uniquely depicted and distinctive work created to fill this neglected and important corner of history. The three "last" figures had multiple interactions as significant historical figures in the 1930s and 1940s. Especially, they were reborn on the land of New China, rekindling the meaning of life. On the eve of the 1965 National Day, they met in front of Tiananmen Square in Beijing—a historically significant moment that is truly thought-provoking.
