About This Novel

It was originally called "Shishuo". In the Tang Dynasty, it was called "Shishuo New Book" or "Shishuo Xinyu". The latter became the proper name of the book around the Northern Song Dynasty. "Shishuoxinyu" is the germ of ancient Chinese novels. Its concise, meaningful and vivid descriptions are difficult to match by many imitators in later generations. This book is not only of great literary significance, but also records mostly real people and true events, and has always been valued by historians.
