Literature (optional)

    The emperor Kangxi ruled during the Qing Dynasty. He loved Literature and wrote lots of poems. Most emperors also do, and wrie essays and more. The Qing emperors thought of themselves as patrons of artists and writers. Many thinkers and philosophers criticized all sorts of things not only in the Qing Dynasty in other dynasties as well. Not all scholars, officials and writers were conformists with the Qing regime. Most of the novels though, were very popular and were traded all  over.
