A Dream in the World

The name of my novel is "A Dream in Jianghu", with a total of 1.05 Million words and thirty-six chapters. It is written about the power struggle between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng. I regard Li Shimin as a positive character. In order to avoid brotherly fratricide, he indulged himself in the beginning, played with the landscape, and misunderstood Li Yuan, thus allowing Li Jiancheng to ascend the throne without any hindrance. However, Later, Li Shimin discovered that Li Jiancheng was extremely selfish and cruel. In order to ensure that the throne was intact, he secretly withheld 300,000 taels of gold that had been shipped to the border areas to resist the Huns' invasion. Later, when he saw that the gold was taken away by Li Shimin, he decided to kill Li Shimi. Li Shimin realized that his actions were a bit deceptive, so he wanted to kill his relatives out of justice, so he went to Jiangnan to search for evidence to expose Li Jiancheng's various illegal behaviors. By chance, he met Shen Zhen and his sworn brothers. Shen Zhen was caught in the vortex of being misunderstood by others. When he heard that this matter was related to the people of the world, he resolutely put aside his own affairs and helped Li Shimin, and finally achieved great success. What I want to promote is the idea of ​​​​serving the people. There is no one in the world who is more single-minded and considers the common people in the world. He deserves the respect and love of others. Li Jiancheng is not a downright bad or inhumane kind. I think no matter who he is, he will have an unforgettable experience. Li Jiancheng was not very bad at the beginning. He gradually sank into glory and wealth, slowly degenerated, and finally couldn't extricate himself. In fact, if you write about a person, you always write that he is a devil and good for nothing, which will give people a wrong judgment: there is no good for people who make mistakes. Looking at the problem this way is superficial. One thing I need to explain is: Although I borrowed the incident between Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng to write, and it is such a theme, but throughout the book, I mainly write about the people and things Shen Zhen encountered on this road. Li Shimin and Li Jiancheng only accounted for a small part. In this martial arts novel, I wrote about some love, friendship, and family affection. Regarding love, I think he is not as bright as Qiong Yao exaggerates. Her love is actually a bit superficial. (This is not because I am too arrogant. Just take a look at the views on love among boys and girls today and you will know that what I say is not unreasonable.) After all, life is real. If you live alone in a dream, you will be a little girl who will never grow up or a self-righteous little boy. Such people cannot look at problems rationally and can only show off their courage. When I write about martial arts, I don't focus on fighting. As Mr. Liang Yusheng said, martial arts is secondary and chivalry is fundamental. Xia is not just about brotherly loyalty. In fact, this understanding is already wrong. I think the great chivalrous person serves the country and the people. This is the big purpose. The small purpose is not only to consider oneself, but also to consider others. So I wrote Shen Zhen, who has a broad mind. He has a gentle personality and treats others with sincerity. I think this kind of state, because you have to take care of others, after all, you need to be broad-minded. When hundreds of rivers flow into the sea, tolerance is great. This is what I want to promote and express.
