Chapter 18 postscript
Postscript
This book was written in 1943. The hope at that time was just to introduce a new way of writing.When I was writing, I saw the emptiness of the material, and after several years of study, I saw that there were still many incorrect or even wrong viewpoints.The completion of a book is related to the era in which it was written. Therefore, in different eras, it is already a matter of rewriting rather than correcting this book.Thanks to the kindness of Hubei People's Publishing House, Zhang Juzheng's biography has the opportunity to meet the readers again, but apart from revising individual words and sentences, I can only repeat my original hope.

Postscript of the third edition
Thanks to Hubei People's Publishing House for another good intention, this book has the opportunity to meet the readers again.I am here to make some changes to individual words and punctuation marks, and I also hope that readers will give criticism and correction.
