Having a cuckold fetish
Why didn't you just kill off the original owner's wife? It would have been a simple matter of a few words. Instead, you had to make her marry someone else and have a child. The protagonist hadn't married yet, and this is what happens when he finally gets this turn. Who are you trying to disgust? The most outrageous thing is that she even acknowledges him as her cousin. Will she help him if he has any difficulties later? Haha, I was so angry I almost laughed!
If you want to read this book, first read Chapter 29, where the protagonist's wife runs away and marries someone else, but the protagonist still goes out of his way to recognize his cousin and gives her money.
There are many geographical errors in Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Furthermore, many battles were modeled after, or even directly copied from, the battles fought by Zhu Yuanzhang. Was Zhu Yuanzhang happy about this? Were the surviving dukes and marquises of that time happy about it?
Let me explain. The protagonist is 28 years old and married, but was separated from his wife due to the war. As the plot dictates, the wife doesn't die, but is violated by soldiers and bandits. She is then rescued by a fisherman and has a child with him. The child is a little over a year old, with a small head and a large belly.
I specifically checked the comments section of the author's previous book. That one also involved the protagonist being cheated on, and after being criticized by readers, it was patched up. Once could be a coincidence, but twice just shows the author has a penchant for this kind of thing, right? I wonder if the author will give away his transmigrated wife later on too.
You could write *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*, *Water Margin*, and *Journey to the West* during the early Ming Dynasty. The authors of the first two were from the late Yuan and early Ming periods, so it would be somewhat plausible for the protagonist to write them. The author of *Journey to the West* was from the mid-Ming Dynasty, so that would also be possible.
Can this be called a literary master?
Can those who wrote novels in ancient times be called literary giants? Wasn't that a form of discrimination?
I'm truly impressed.
If you can't write a romance, don't write one. Aside from the romance, the whole book is really good, but the beginning establishes the protagonist as a deeply devoted lover searching for his lost wife, laying the groundwork for a virtuous wife. Then, in less than 20 chapters, he marries a teenage girl with an unlikable personality. It's a real blunder, like a rotten apple spoiling the whole barrel.
If you wrote "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in ancient times, wouldn't the Quanzhen Taoist priests use you as a sacrifice to their ancestors? 🙀
Does writing novels qualify someone as a literary giant? 😰
