Chapter 1073 – Prince Regent
Qian Qianyi, who lacked morale courage, was just the epitome of that generation. The people that caused Ming Dynasty to die was not Great Shun, nor was it Great Qing, but it was the Ming Dynasty itself.
In the latter stages of the Ming Dynasty, factions rose up and competed against one another, each trying to take the others down.
After the Chongzhen emperor killed himself, the prince did not follow the customs and take over in Jianye, which was why his children and him were captured. After that, the throne could only be passed on.
At that point, including top choice Prince Fu, Prince Gui who Shi Kefa supported, and Prince Lu that the Donglin faction supported. The three princes and their three factions went against one another. They totally disregarded the situation in the north, giving the Great Qing enough time to stabilize and wipe out Great Shun.
