Moonlight Over the Song Dynasty

I once thought it was the best way to write about Song Dynasty. Six years later, I haven't found anything better.

It was written ten years ago. I read it again. The writing is good, but there are too many private articles. I don't agree with some of the author's views.

There is always something unsatisfactory. When I went to Quanzhou, I could defeat so many bandits with ten big children. You must know that two waves of bows and arrows can hit the sky at such a close distance, and you still need a very powerful archer.

If this book hadn't been too much for Su Shi to lick, I wouldn't have given it up. The human nature of people a thousand years ago was imperfect compared to today. It's not that they were not kind, but that they were cannibalistic on a large scale during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Before that, they were also cannibalistic on a large scale during the Five Dynasties and the Hua Dynasty. Going further back, cannibalism was common during the Shang, Zhou, Spring and Autumn Periods, and cannibalism was also common during the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. We must recognize the difference between ancient people and modern people. What's the difference? Take Su Shi, for example. Although he wrote about life and death for ten years, deep love is still deep love, white prostitution is white prostitution, people are not as good as horses, and people are not as good as horses. Jiangzhou Sima Bai Juyi's love poems are even better, but now he is just a scumbag who was killed by thousands of people. Even Liu Sanbian in the Song Dynasty was not as good as him. The difference between modern and ancient people in terms of the lower limit of moral ethics is like that between humans and gorillas. So where does all this false reverence come from? A modern person among the ancients may have more of a sense of superiority and loneliness. The Song Dynasty can be regarded as the best dynasty run by people, but it is estimated that Fan Zhongyan, including Fan Zhongyan, cannot find an official who is not corrupt, and Wang Anshi, including Wang Anshi, cannot find an official who genuinely cares about the interests of the scholar-bureaucrat class and does something for the people. Even if people today do not have a mysophobia, how can they admire these ancients? Just write about one-sided respect, such as Song Ci's specialization in legal criminal investigation, Bi Sheng's inventions, and the emergence of stir-fried vegetables in Chinese food. In short, it is not good to praise an ancient person completely and without reservation, regardless of his stench.

After reading more than a hundred chapters, there are too many smugglers, and the key point is that they are all childish and even mentally retarded smugglers. The public intellectuals ten years ago were embarrassed to continue to spread rumors, but the author still wrote them in the book with a sigh.

It would be nice if there was no mention of apprenticeship with Su Shi. Su Dongpo's position as an official is like that of Empress Li as emperor, and his personal moral cultivation was suppressed by his contemporaries Wang Anshi and Sima Guang. If you don't study with him as a stepping stone, you really don't need to become a disciple. Therefore, it is enough to only praise Dongpo's literary aspects, but I will not be able to continue reading if I praise other things. Apart from this, everything else is well written.

Wrote randomly, some of the stuff in the middle is really nonsense, mixed with personal information...

It's too disgusting, too licking, and the author feels that some people are thinking too much about the bad times, but he is indifferent. Does he have a masochistic tendency? This article is poisonous

This book can be read several times. I loved reading it when it first came out. It introduced a lot of customs of the Song Dynasty. I forgot that I had read history. It was more interesting to read this book as an admirer or appreciator of Su Shi. I started to tell you the truth and really liked it. The sentence "There is no China after Yashan", from the perspective of cultural inheritance, it has been three thousand years since the Song Dynasty. The blood of our culture was cut off by the end of the Song Dynasty. After the Ming Dynasty, there were only market novels. Looking at it comprehensively, this sentence is wrong. In fact, the Chinese spirit has not been cut off. Zhu Ming is so strong.

In fact, this book mainly introduces the customs and customs of the Song Dynasty. Time travel is just a cover. Readers should remember not to expect to change history, so it will be more interesting and informative.
