"Chinese Classical Literature Masterpiece Series: Heroes of Sons and Daughters" truly portrays the image of An Xuehai, a perfect man in his mind: he is capable, loyal, incorruptible and self-restrained, and there is something endearing about his character; loyalty, filial piety and justice are the criterion in every word and deed, and he is like a model of a moral defender of feudal ethics.

He could only find his own "hero" in fantasy, trying to help the troubled times and bring peace to the people through outdated traditional feudal ethics. The author's ideological tendency is contrary to the trend of the times, but the realistic dilemma reflected in it is real.
