An Official of the Tang Dynasty

Imagine a conspiracy theory movie script: On his deathbed, Emperor Dezong of Tang had only one worry. He told his crown prince, "I have two great shames in my life. The first was when my father contacted the generals of the Four Garrisons but was powerless to help them, leaving only tears between the emperor and his ministers.

Li Shi's break with Gao Yue was somewhat abrupt and took a sharp turn for the worse. Although the subsequent events were enjoyable to watch, it still felt a bit odd.

One stone of salt is only worth two stones of wheat; this salt is far too cheap. Or is the "stone" of salt a specialized unit of measurement, like the ounce of gold?

Sula's writing is truly excellent. Having read so many historical novels, especially those about the Tang Dynasty, I think Sula's is the best. Some people think that writing about the East is inferior to writing about the West, but I'm the opposite. *The Great Tang Official* feels more relatable than *Eagle Soars Over Byzantium*.

The decline of Qidian is due to this meaningless mess of 404 errors; it's utterly pointless; I really can't understand it; what's the point of this meaningless harmony?

SulaMade a mistake; Padmasambhava was a Mahayana practitioner. Both Han Chinese Buddhism and Tibetan Buddhism are Mahayana Buddhism. The Theravada tradition is called Southern Buddhism, which refers to Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, not China.

Many readers defended it, saying it was just nitpicking. Why say so much when the first picture was meant to discourage people? One person put it well: the right to speak. Fans of historical novels have always had nationalist tendencies; otherwise, try writing a Qing Dynasty time-travel novel yourself.

To be honest, although it's on the same topic, this book is really not as good as the toxic "The Great Tang Eunuch" next door.

I have a question. Both the Zhongshu (Secretariat) and Menxia Shilang (Chancellor) are prime ministers, so why is the Zhongshu Shilang (Secretariat Vice Minister) of higher rank?

Knowing full well that there are tigers in the mountains, yet still venturing into the tiger's den. The history from the mid-Tang Dynasty to the late Tang Dynasty was a process of continuous decline, dull and helpless. It lacked the brilliance of the early Tang Dynasty and the urgent need to turn the tide like the late Song and Ming Dynasties.
