He threw his phone on the sofa, and he quickly got up and went to the study, Zhang Chu hesitated what to write.

There were so many dynasties in ancient China, as a history lover, Zhang Chu knew every dynasty, not to mention that after this semester's study, he listened to the professor explain all aspects of things.

"Otherwise, write about the Tang Dynasty, right?"

His two favorite dynasties were the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and it was purely a matter of personal preference, so it was much easier to understand the content of these two dynasties more thoroughly, so that it was much easier to write.

However, there must be a lot of people who write about the Tang Dynasty, and it is difficult to stand out in the small essays of so many students.

Maybe I should write about the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Chu thought, he actually regretted the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the last Han dynasty, the dynasty that was most likely to compete with Western countries, but the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the Central Plains interrupted this process.

There are no relatives of the Han Dynasty, the feudal towns of the Tang Dynasty, and the New Year's coins of the Song Dynasty.

"Wouldn't 3,000 words be too short to discuss the fall of the Ming Dynasty?"

This proposition is obviously very big, and the fall of the Ming Dynasty was not an overnight thing, but an inevitability that began with the system.

Zhang Chu immediately shook his head, "No, no, no, we still have to narrow the scope." ”

If you just want to turn in this paper and get a passing 60 points, that's easy. Just follow the analysis of the history books or the rest of the people.

But what he wants is to be excellent, and since he wants to write a short essay related to history, why not write this little essay more excitingly?

Just because it's a final assignment shouldn't be taken lightly.

The most taboo thing about writing this type of paper is to talk in generalities, so it is better to talk about the reasons for the fall of the entire Ming Dynasty, than to write about a specific historical figure.

Zhang Chu decided to cut off the cross-section of history to see the causes and consequences of the fall of the Ming Dynasty.

Find a key historical figure and analyze whether he had any influence on the fall of the Ming Dynasty from this historical figure!

Of course, the first choice for this character is Emperor Chongzhen, who hanged himself in Jingshan, he was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty who destroyed the country, and of course there are various reasons for him.

However, this figure has been studied by historians over and over again, and there is almost no new point to be found, at most it is just picking people's teeth and wisdom, and there is no innovative point of view.

What if Wei Zhongxian had been eradicated earlier?

What if Yuan Chonghuan didn't die?

Or is it the fault of Emperor Hongwu's side?

When did the peaceful Ming Dynasty decline and perish step by step?

All kinds of questions surged in Zhang Chu's head, and these questions sprung up in his mind, there were too many historical figures to write about in the Ming Dynasty, and there were countless famous civilian generals.

"Forget it, I'll have to go to the library and borrow a few books!"

Just thinking about it is equal to zero, Zhang Chu took advantage of the fact that the library was not closed, he took his hat, scarf and coat and walked towards the door.

……

It was only past five o'clock in the afternoon, and the library had already turned on all the lights, and it looked majestic under the cover of the black night.

Since it is necessary to write the history of the Eight Classics, it is necessary to find serious reference books, such as "History of the Ming Dynasty", "Ming Shilu", "Ming Tongjian", "Ming History Chronicle" and other historical materials of the Ming Dynasty.

These works are all thick, and I don't know what time it will be after they are finished.

In his previous life, he was just a history buff, not a history researcher!

"It's going to be busy. Zhang Chu muttered that he didn't like those pretending to be profound, and this time he really gave up in order to write a class paper.

As if he was moving bricks, he carried so many books and walked towards home, and he was very worried that he might not even be able to read the book in the past few days, let alone write.

"You have to find the right people to do it quickly, so you can ignore most of the other people or events and focus on finding the relevant content. ”

Order takeout while walking, you have to race against time!

Maybe for many people, they like history more because they like the biographies of those characters in the nature of romance, or the secret history of the palace in the nature of wild history, and the official history always seems to be so boring and obscure for ordinary people.

Even though it's just a small paper, that Zhang Chu also wants to make this paper wonderful and interesting, not so lethargic!

For a student who does not study history deeply, the first thing that makes a paper interesting must be to make the topic attractive and talented.

Fortunately, the well-known figures of the Ming Dynasty are all wonderful, and any one of them can talk about a lot.

Just like the founding emperor who loved to kill, there are also those who like food, those who like crickets, those who are captured by the imperial driver, those who only take one wife, those who love to build leopard houses, those who are keen on refining pills, and those who have been on strike for decades and have not been in the early dynasty.

The upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, the emperor is wonderful, of course, the courtiers are not serious, the wonderful prime minister and the first assistant, the wonderful champion Lang, the Ming Dynasty has provided a steady stream of talking points for history lovers!

"As the longest-reigning emperor of the Ming Dynasty, as the most careless emperor, Emperor Wanli should have an unshirkable responsibility for the demise of the Ming Dynasty, after all, he is quite powerful in this era. ”

The Ming Dynasty, which had already been somewhat decayed, moved towards liveliness and openness in the Wanli Emperor, and there were a series of reform measures under the auspices of Zhang Juzheng, the first assistant, and the economic development and national strength were improved.

It seems that at this time, the Ming Dynasty was very strong.

However, in the later period of the reign of Emperor Wanli, after the government was no longer in power for various reasons, the operation of the country almost stopped, and it was fortunate that it did not perish directly, which greatly hurt the country's capital and began to decline.

After selecting such a character, Zhang Chu began to look for the relevant historical facts of the Wanli Emperor in the history books, which was much easier than reading the whole book!

In fact, the Wanli Emperor was not a mediocre generation, and during his reign of several decades, although the later period showed a downward trend, it was still a small prosperous era on the whole.

But he is most famous for the title of super otaku, Zhang Chu used bookmarks to mark the relevant content after finding the information, but unfortunately these books are not his own, otherwise he can use a pen to draw lines directly under the relevant words.

This time, he intends to use a novel way to interpret the Wanli Emperor, so that his papers are no longer boring summaries and lists, so that anyone can access the official history almost without barriers.

This novel way of writing, known as the grand view of history, has never appeared in this world at present!
