"Pingshan Lengyan" was written in the early years of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty. It mainly tells the marriage story of two young couples, Yan Baijin and Shan Dai, Ping Ruheng and Leng Jiangxue. The title of the book is a combination of the surnames of the four main characters. This book is worth reading for readers interested in such topics. The essence of the content of "Pingshan Lengyan" is not about love and marriage, but weaves a new "official promotion chart" through the marriage story: on the one hand, it advocates talent and love for talent, and on the other hand, it exposes the reliance on family influence to become an official. The novel depicts Shandai and Jiangxue as women who are "beautiful in the aura of mountains and rivers" and "beautiful in poetry and prose", while describing those Yutang bachelors and famous poets in the poetry society as pedantic. It aims to praise women's talents and denounce corrupt scholars and their incompetence. It had its own progressive significance at the time. The ending of Yuci's marriage story in the novel has been imitated by many novels and is a relatively influential work. "Pingshan Lengyan" is relatively ordinary in terms of artistic expression. In addition to the straightforward storyline and long dialogues, there are also subtleties in it. It is particularly worth noting that some complex and detailed psychological descriptions are not only a new phenomenon in Chinese classical novels, but also have an obvious impact on "A Dream of Red Mansions".

"The Rebirth of the Dragon and the Phoenix" is also known as "The Rebirth of the Dragon and the Phoenix", which was adapted from "The Rebirth of the Dragon and the Phoenix" in the 20 volumes and 44 rebound ci editions of Chen Duansheng during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. It mainly tells the story of Meng Lijun who disguised herself as a man and reunited with her husband Huangfu Shaohua. Readers who like classical novels should not miss this book. The Tanci version of "Rebirth" is a treasure in Chinese classical literature. Chen Yinke once compared it with Greek and Roman epics. The plot of the work is twists and turns and gripping. Even if I read it today, it still has profound meaning. Together with Dream of Red Mansions, the work is called "Dream of the South and North" and is also the original work of the classic play "Meng Lijun". From this perspective, this book has considerable reading value. Classic stories have been passed down to this day, providing people with a lot of creative materials. Therefore, whether it is used as a hobby or as a deliberate study, you can gain something. The plot of the work is vivid and highly readable.

"Five Beautiful Destinies in Dreams" is a vernacular novel about talented people and beauties written by Li Xiuxing in the Qing Dynasty. It is also known as "Five Beautiful Destinies in Dreams" and was written during the Yongzheng and Qianlong years of the Qing Dynasty. This book is worth reading for readers who are interested in ancient novels about talented men and beauties. The father of the protagonist Wu Ruisheng, a talented man, dreamed that an old man gave him a poem, saying that Wang Ruisheng's marriage was contained in the poem. The poem goes: "The fairy was born in the southern country, and the plum blossom girl is a relative; there are three lights and two darkness, and they all belong to the five-person line." Ruisheng followed his father's order and traveled south, where he met Duiqiong, Cuijuan, Lanying, and Suyan. After becoming a Jinshi, he got Shunhua, who had three wives and two concubines, and they met in a dream. The novel is set against the backdrop of Yan Song's political chaos during the Zhengde and Jiajing years of the Ming Dynasty. Four of the five women were exiled and suffered hardships, and after going through twists and turns, they were reunited. "Destiny in a Dream" is cleverly conceived, using a dream to lead the whole story. The four lines of poetry in the dream also become hints and predictions for the development of the plot. This point even had a positive impact on later generations of novels about gifted men and beautiful women, and was borrowed from "A Dream of Red Mansions". The structure of the book is rigorous and dense; the events and characters written are as if they were there and the images are vivid. The writing is simple and interesting, with endless aftertaste, making it hard to put down after reading it. The stories in the book are vivid and the language is concise and popular. The structural arrangement, character creation, and expression of thoughts and plots are all unique and unique. They are highly readable and suitable for recreational reading.

"The Legend of Awakening Marriage", also known as "The Evil Marriage", is a novel in the early Qing Dynasty and an outstanding novel about worldly affairs in ancient China. Readers interested in classical literature should not miss this book. The novel uses the story of a marriage between two generations of one person's karma and retribution as a clue. It makes an in-depth analysis of the two major symptoms of social darkness in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties - corrupt officialdom and shallow social customs. It is an outstanding figure in similar novels in terms of shaping characters and organizing stories. The main purpose of the work is to understand cause and effect, and it panoramically reflects the corruption of officials and the weakening of social customs in that era. Hu Shi once commented on this book: "This is a realistic novel of the 17th century" and "it can show a broad aspect of social life including family life. It is the richest and most detailed cultural historical material." Influenced by "Jin Ping Mei", "The Legend of Awakening Marriage" writes about the ordinary details of society and families. It is true, detailed and close to the original appearance of life. The depiction of the lower class society in urban and rural areas is more vivid in life. The author has a deep understanding of human feelings and the world, and often adds some exaggeration to the realistic tone to show the ridiculousness of people and events, creating a satirical effect. The various characters that appear in the novel, whether they are officials, squires, private school teachers, villagers, matchmakers, quack doctors, businessmen, nuns, Taoist priests, or rural scoundrels, all have their own unique and despicable snobbish expressions, which can be said to describe all living beings. The novel uses dialects and slang to describe the characters' situations, and there is a sense of humor between the lines. The whole novel has a strong moral message of persuading kindness and education. At the same time, the author is quite clear-headed about real life, has a deep understanding of it, and depicts quite a lot of real and vivid world conditions and human feelings.
