Features: Although the book's theme is serious, the writing is light and entertaining. Among the one hundred historical stories from the Han Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, "wisdom" and "fun" hold equal weight. Therefore, the choice of dynasties and the historical significance of events do not carry overwhelming importance. As a result, when I delve into history, my ultimate consideration is always "What does history tell me?" and I strive to seek "nourishment for the present age" to prevent the repeated occurrence of life's tragedies and comedies. From the perspective of "writing history," this book can only be seen as a collection of personal experiences, reflections, and "leisure time," with no connection to scholarly writing. Borrowing light from history, seeking out the faintly glowing lamps in the long night of history, so that one may avoid stumbling in the dark when racing through life.
