Wat D haCk Am i DoInG?
An Excellent Story Book
Ever since i came back from China most of my friends felt that i am crazy bout China history cus they see my talking or behaviour a bit like China people. Well i still think i am still who i am even before i went to china n after i came back. But the China trip really had left me a great impression with their culture their better off chinese lauguage and most importantly their History. When i visited those places like The Forbidden City, the home of the Emperor. I was amazed by their building structher and the beauty of the place. From there i wanted to know the story behind this forbidden city. So i bought this story book title EMPRESS ORCHID by ANCHEE MIN. I could say she is a very Good story writer whom gave very detail story bout what is happening in the Palace. I started reading after i bought and as i read on, I was so addicted everyday n everywhere i am on my way to work or school i will read. The content inside was talking about the last generation The MANCHU who ruled China and how it came to and end. Empress Orchid as Tzu Hsi (pronounced "Tsoo Shee" and spelled Cixi in Pinyin) was born on November 29, 1835. Her clan name was Yehonala or Yehenara. Little is known about her background, but according to some accounts her father was a captain in the banner corps that guarded the emperor's home, the Forbidden City.
It was about how the Emperor ruled Peking. And some of the custom, tradition, rules and regulation that the empress, concubines,slaves, eunuch had to obey. Want to know bout the story? well u just have to go n check out the book. Is an excellent one i could say. Live as a empress or emperor is not easy at all. All i can say is the china rulling in the past was not smart enough which had cause the next generation to fall apart easily. But lucky China now is progressing and opening more to the foreign country. Yet i also admire their determination to fight hard against the westner. They may not have succeed. But they had earn the glory of their people even right now...
