Features: The life of De Wang is full of legends, depicting a tragic story. The miraculous reunion of the three "last" figures—was it a remarkable coincidence or an inevitable part of history? During the Chinese 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 Dorgulu—De Wang. Among these three figures, 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 descriptive work specifically written 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 notable is that they all found new life on the land of New China, rediscovering the meaning of their existence. On the eve of the 1965 National Day, they met in front of Tiananmen Square in Beijing. This historically significant scene is truly thought-provoking.
