[quote=MARRIE,353313] Seth, I would like to recommend you a great Chinese historical novel, one of the greatest politically philosophical master piece - ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS. Here is a short story in this dynasty: When Cao Cao died, his older son attained the throne. He was afraid of his younger brother and wanted to rid of him by some pretense. One day in Court he commanded the younger brother Cao Zhi to compose a poem, within the set time of walking 7 paces. Cao Zhi (c.192-232) complied and wrote this moving, unforgettable poem: It was said that the elder brother was moved to tears and left Cao Zhi alone. 7-step poem: Beans are boiled by the fire of beanstalks. And beans cry in the pot: "We both came from the same roots, Why burn me to death so unrelentingly?"[/quote]
