书籍简介

一个放过牛，当过和尚的人建立了这个王朝。明朝，取《易经》中“大明始终”之意，朱元璋，是一个伟大的人物，他干脆利落地灭了元朝，开创了一个新的时代，然而，他的王朝又要马上过去，化作历史的烟尘。这是中国式的王朝兴替，佛家叫轮回，经济学家叫周期，而历史学家，干脆就把它称之为历史周期律。

蒙元的统治日益残暴黑暗，到元顺帝（元惠宗）时期，暴发了韩山童、刘福通、徐寿辉等领导的红巾军起义。朱元璋参加了红巾军，他南征北战。1364年，朱元璋自称为吴王，史称西吴政权。1368年，朱元璋称帝，以应天府（南京）为京师，国号大明，年号洪武，建立了明朝，朱元璋就是明太祖。不久他又命徐达、常遇春等大将北伐蒙元，攻占大都（北京），元顺帝北逃，元朝在中国历经98年的统治宣告结束。中国进入明代统治，明朝共有二十位皇帝（包括南明四帝），明朝的领土除囊括清朝时期所谓内地十八省之范围，还包括今天的东北地区、新疆东部、西藏、缅甸北部、西伯利亚东部和越南北部等地，并将今天的南沙，中国台湾正式纳入我国版图，并曾在东南亚的安南，旧港等地设有羁縻管理机构，势力远及印度洋和中亚。强盛时，影响力更是波及非洲东岸和整个亚洲。

The empire is in mortal danger. Hai Rui and his allies bought her time, but now it is spent. Endless war. Mass starvation. Bleak omens. Addled by mercury and aided by sycophants, Emperor Jiajing is squandering the last remnants of the treasury.

Minutes to midnight, Hai Rui is ordered to the capital. He alone is prepared to fight the rot at its source. In the Forbidden City, such bravery cannot go unpunished. It will be down to Hai Rui’s allies – foremost the honourable Crown Prince – to initiate the endgame.

This is it. No more hiding. No more half-measures. Now it is time to rescue the once-mighty Ming, or join in the plunder as it descends in flames to a hell of no return.
