Summary "醉醒石" by Donglugukuangsheng is a historical novel likely written in the 17th century. The narrative centers around themes of virtue, governance, and justice, depicting the life of a man named 姚一祥 who, despite facing various temptations and challenges, strives to uphold righteousness and address injustices within society. The opening of "醉醒石" establishes a philosophical foundation, discussing the significance of virtue and the complexities of justice in a historical context. It introduces 姚一祥, a man of modest means who operates under the constraints of a corrupt system but is motivated by a desire to support the innocent and rectify wrongs.
