The protagonist, Wei Xiaobao, was born and raised up in a brothel in Yangzhou, the teenage scamp made his way from Yangzhou to the Beijing through a series of adventures. In Beijing, he was kidnapped and taken to the imperial palace, where he impersonated a eunuch. While in the palace, Wei Xiaobao bumbled his way into a fateful encounter with the young Kangxi Emperor, and developed an unlikely friendship with him. During the multiple fights between the rebellious force and the Qing government, Wei Xiaobao assisted secretly to lower the harm to both parties. Wei Xiaobao also made several seemingly impossible achievements which brought him immense wealth and he was rewarded with the title “Duke of Deer Cauldron”.

Later, Kangxi Emperor discovered Wei Xiaobao’s relationship with the rebellion and forced him to help eliminate the rebellion Tiandihui , Wei Xiaobao could not reconcile between the two opposing sides, so he faked dead and brought his family to a reclusive life.

这是金庸先生最后一部武侠小说,也是登峰造极之作!小说讲的是一个从小在扬州妓院长大的小孩韦小宝,他以不会任何武功之姿态闯江湖各大帮会、周旋皇帝朝臣之间并奉旨远征云南、俄罗斯之故事,书中充满精彩绝倒的对白及逆思考的事件!金庸先生将韦小宝的个人经历与历史密密切合,大玩历史哈哈镜的手法,令人赞叹,几乎信以为真,而小宝的做人方法及毫不留情的揭出人生各阶层黑暗面这种做法,使得这部书成了不是武侠小说的武侠小说,到了无剑胜有剑的境地。韦小宝是个最最普通的人,好像也就是在你我身边的那些人一样。

Louis Cha, GBM, OBE (born 6 February 1924), better known by his pen name Jin Yong (金庸, sometimes read and/or written as "Chin Yung"), is a modern Chinese-language novelist. Having co-founded the Hong Kong daily Ming Pao in 1959, he was the paper's first editor-in-chief.

Cha's fiction, which is of the wuxia ("martial arts and chivalry") genre, has a widespread following in Chinese-speaking areas, including mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, and the United States. His 15 works written between 1955 and 1972 earned him a reputation as one of the finest wuxia writers ever. He is currently the best-selling Chinese author alive; over 100 million copies of his works have been sold worldwide (not including unknown number of bootleg copies).

Cha's works have been translated into English, French, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese, Thai, Burmese, Malay and Indonesian. He has many fans abroad as well, owing to the numerous adaptations of his works into films, television series, comics and video games.
