Mao Zedong once remarked that Kangxi "was not only talented and ambitious but also diligent in learning." Yet, even such an accomplished emperor harbored many unspeakable sorrows and carried numerous unsolved mysteries: Did Kangxi die of natural causes or was he assassinated? Why did he risk the stigma of "incest" by marrying his aunt as a concubine? After his beloved Empress Tong died in childbirth, why did Kangxi refuse to appoint a new empress even until his death? Why did he repeatedly appoint and then depose his favored heir, whom he held in special affection? The "Kangxi and Qianlong Reign" (17th and 18th centuries), which stood at the height of global prosperity, experienced a fiery and turbulent decline in the carelessness of its era. Its brilliant glow was as fleeting as the setting sun, followed by a long, silent night. In this magical yet tragic century, what mysteries lie within—telling the story of the Great Qing.
