About This Novel
The freedom of the literati in the Song Dynasty cultivated the fine wine of high-quality culture. However, it was also because of too much freedom that it appeared messy and undisciplined. Every time they tried hard to govern, they ended up in vain. If we had to find a matching specimen for the history of the Song Dynasty, it should be Zeng Zhuo's poem, "A Tree on the Edge of a Cliff." She was blown to the edge of the cliff by the wind of history, and became a green crown because of the evening sunlight, clear sky, lush green grass, and rushing creek. Because of this nourishment, the big trees in the Song Dynasty grew more and more abundantly. Unfortunately, when the branches are luxuriant, she is also in danger. She always seemed to be about to spread her wings and fly, but also seemed to be about to fall into a deep valley. "Everything must be reversed when it reaches its extreme", this is probably the truth. If you can clearly distinguish this layer, you will have a different understanding of the glory of the Song Dynasty.
