Today, among the more controversial feudal dynasties on the Internet, the Ming Dynasty has always occupied a high traffic.
Some people very much agree with the definition of the positive direction of the Ming Dynasty, such as "not cutting the land, not being kind, not being a subject, not paying tribute to the Heavenly Son to guard the gate of the country, and the king dying in the community." Think of it as a skeletal and respectable dynasty.
There are also people who strongly agree with the reverse definition of the Ming Dynasty, such as "no ming jun, no name soldier, no name general" (Gao Xiaosong). I think it was a relatively dim-witted, brutal dynasty that had contributed nothing to history.
The common sense is reasonable, and the mother says that the wife is justified, and has been arguing endlessly.
But there is no doubt about one thing, the Ming Dynasty was the most upright dynasty in Chinese history, and in the darkness of the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it brought a glimmer of light to China.
Therefore, although the Ming Dynasty did not have the heroism of the Han and Tang Dynasties, and did not have the cultural destruction of the Song Dynasty, its status in the hearts of history lovers was still not low.
On the Internet, there are many fans of cross-over novels about the history of the Ming Dynasty, especially the cross-over novels of the late Ming Dynasty, and many people vent some indignation or pin their hopes on the historical texts of the late Ming Dynasty.
Late Ming dynasty historical texts abound in major online reading platforms, the quality is good and bad, this article will recommend three high-quality late Ming history texts for ming dynasty history enthusiasts and online novel lovers to refer to.
I: "朕", by Wang Zijun
Wang Zijun is a god in the field of Internet culture, and he is well known for writing Entertainment articles in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
In the past two years, he has turned to historical literature and written two ming dynasty cross-over novels in succession, one of which is the late Ming dynasty cross-over novel "朕".
The introduction to the novel is simple: back to the end of the Ming Dynasty, reduced to slavery. This emperor, the beggar did, the slave did, the rogue did, the domestic slave could not do it?
Looking at the introduction, it is the story of a crosser who has been reduced to being a slave to others, and then made a fortune and pushed all the way to establish a new dynasty.
The protagonist of the author's pen, in a way of ideological identification, put forward the slogan of "people have dignity and inferiority, but personality is equal", united all the middle and lower classes in the late Ming Dynasty, and finally completed a great cause.
In addition, the place where the protagonist started is in Jiangxi, which is also a rare historical text in the late Ming Dynasty, and Jiangxi is a province with weaker jurisdiction of the Ming Government, probably drawing on the experience of some modern parties.
In general, the extremely simple historical text of the late Ming Dynasty is still worth reading.
Two: "Crossing the Fall in front of Chongzhen", the author is called Tian
Novel Introduction: The protagonist crosses over and falls in front of the Chongzhen Emperor, the time is the beginning of March of the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, and the main force of the Ming army is completely destroyed in the Battle of Tashan, what to do?
In the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Hong Chengzu lost the last family foundation of the Ming Dynasty in the "Battle of Songjin", and the Ming Dynasty entered the countdown to its demise.
In the novel, the protagonist suddenly appears in front of the Chongzhen Emperor, who is almost desperate about the situation, during this time period, as a crosser.
The biggest advantage of the protagonist of the author's pen is that he can travel back and forth between the Ming Dynasty and the modern era, and can dump materials.
Therefore, the protagonist used a series of text and audio-visual evidence to convince the Chongzhen Emperor that the Ming Dynasty was about to perish in two years, and won the absolute trust of the Chongzhen Emperor and began to save the Ming Dynasty.
Unlike most historical texts of the late Ming Dynasty, the protagonist has the absolute support of the Chongzhen Emperor, skips the stage of slowly cultivating and developing power, and can directly begin to transform the Ming Dynasty.
Many famous civil servants and military generals who were martyred at the fall of the Ming Dynasty in history became important helpers for the protagonist to revive the Ming Dynasty under the recommendation and promotion of the protagonist.
Of course, there is also the bridge section of marrying a princess that the public likes, and the protagonist does not usurp the throne, so it is necessary to become Chongzhen's son-in-law.
As for the final outcome, after the revival of the Ming Dynasty, what grand goals did the protagonist accomplish? It is not much to introduce, or let the reader dig it out for himself.
Three: "The Great Stream", the author is proud of his iron heart
Novel Introduction: Chongzhen sixteen years, Ming Sheji will fall, is it to descend the Qing or resist the Qing?
From the title of the book, it can be known that the protagonist of the author's pen did not develop from within the system, but directly rebelled.
The protagonist is a poor boy from a family of salt workers near Huai'an, Jiangsu (which belonged to Nanzhili during the Ming Dynasty and belonged to one of the two Capital regions of the Ming Dynasty).
A year before the ming dynasty was about to fall, the protagonist rose up in an act of serving the imperial court and became an anti-thief in the eyes of the Ming Dynasty.
The beginning of the novel is the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, and for the historical texts of the late Ming Dynasty, this point in time has only begun to start, which is definitely a hellish difficulty.
In order to develop and grow as soon as possible, the protagonist first took the initiative to move closer to Li Zicheng and joined the big family of the Da Shun Dynasty, and had a basis for cooperation with the Da Shun Army.
Then, when Li Zicheng was defeated, the protagonist skillfully coped with the familiarity with the trend of history, successfully collected the rest of Li Zicheng, and became a big player who could influence the situation in the world.
At the time of Xiao's writing of this recommended article, the novel was not yet finished, but the content of the book had already written that the protagonist had subdued Zhang Xianzhong's remnants of the Great Western Army.
Integrating the protagonists of the two major anti-thief remnants of Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, the future can be expected.
Four: Concluding remarks
These are three novels of good quality that I recommend to lovers of history in the late Ming Dynasty.
The three novels have three different ways of starting, which should be able to meet the needs of different readers, welcome to click to read and discuss.
