No Famous Titles, No Beginner-Friendly Fluff. Mainly Creative, Plot-Driven Stories
Lately I've found that historical fiction isn't as interesting as real history. A lot of the speculation is just wishful thinking. After reading The Capital and The State and Revolution, I feel like reading historical news is more interesting. Most historical web novels on Qidian are full of nonsense and make no sense at all. Ge Qin is passable, though. I mostly recommend lesser-known works. The hidden gems are the best books on Qidian. Aside from Wuzei, most famous authors write pretty average

Yuewen Group responded to the 13 million adaptation rights of "Datang Mingyue", why did the original author only get 160,000 My male channel, this book is in the news
"Datang Mingyue" is unbearable to read! The recently aired TV series "The Wind Rises in Colorful Clothes" is adapted from the ancient time-travel novel "Datang Mingyue". It doesn't matter if you haven't read the novel yet. This article will give a brief introduction first. All the content mentioned below comes from the plot of the novel. At the beginning of the novel, Kudi Liuli, the legitimate daughter of a good family who has passed away in time but whose father is still alive, is almost forced into prostitution by her father's concubine for greed for a little money and is sold into a brothel. Later, the heroine was teased when she went out, and she was spotted by Pei Yan and Pei Ruzhuo at the same time and wanted to take her as their concubine. The heroine's father's concubine wanted to sell her for money. The heroine cleverly imitated the tone of the martyrs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties and cut off a lock of her own hair and said: "In order to avoid future quarrels and damage to the reputation of the two houses, Liuli hereby swears that she will never be the concubine of the two houses in this life! If she breaks this oath, heaven will hate her and the earth will abandon her. This will be the fate!" Therefore, the heroine escaped the fate of being sold at a low price again. Later, the heroine entered the Tang Palace by chance, and was attracted by Li Zhi, Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty who basically insisted on monogamy in the future. She almost wanted to be included in the harem, but the heroine had to tactfully refuse. Under the repeated protection of the male protagonist Pei Xingjian, the female protagonist finally escaped from the palace and got engaged to the male protagonist. The male protagonist takes the unmarried female protagonist around and even dares to admit that the unmarried female protagonist is his wife in front of monks. Although the novel maintains the 1v1 pampering mode after confirming the male protagonist, the bunch of bad romances that the female protagonist incurred for no reason before marriage are enough to highlight the female protagonist's personal charm. When the heroine had not yet given birth to a son, Su Dingfang once taught Pei Xingjian to take concubines with the words "Three unfilial piety". However, Pei Xingjian, who was over fifty years old, would rather have no children and no grandchildren than dote on the heroine alone. Later, the female protagonist finally dragged her illness and worked hard to give birth to four sons for Pei Xingjian. She also gave birth to twins in a narrow escape, fulfilling the obligation of a good wife to carry on the male protagonist's family line. When the male protagonist returned to the center of power, Pei Xingjian, the male protagonist who had the loyalty to the emperor during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, strongly rejected Tang Gaozong Li Zhi's enthusiastic request to take a concubine several times. Later, the male protagonist appropriately took the opportunity to fake his death at the year of his death recorded in history books, and finally reunited with the female protagonist at the age of seventy, and lived happily ever after. Faithful love is enough to change a person and make the other half learn to give up principles and surrender to everything. Although the male protagonist in the novel always behaves strictly and strictly, he is also often full of sensibility and impulsiveness because of his infatuation with the female protagonist. Although the female protagonist in the novel is only a weak woman, she has rashly risked her life several times to help her husband. From the novel, we see an extremely extravagant Tang Dynasty. Through the author's splendid prose, I feel that the author's lavish, extravagant and powerful Tang Dynasty is actually not far away from us, just like the dynasty closest to us. Romance novels that are popular among the public are not necessarily good novels, because readers of online novels generally have vulgar tastes and touching IQs. If you carefully read the above paragraphs of my introduction to the plot of the novel, I believe that people with normal intelligence will feel that it is stuck in their throats. Sometimes, Mary Sue, golden finger, and 1v1 sweet pet settings add to the personal charm of the protagonist and become the shining point of a romance novel being sought after. The three views conveyed by this kind of market-oriented novels that only cater to readers' interests may be controversial and difficult to ponder. In order to exaggerate the mutual oppression between women, "The Moon in the Tang Dynasty" did not hesitate to set up the concubine of the heroine's father who dared to force the heroine to be a prostitute and sell her into a brothel while her father was still alive. It did not hesitate to set up the eldest princesses of the 600 households in the city with independent princess mansions to compete with the heroine for small profits in the back house. In order to exaggerate men's admiration for the heroine, "The Moon" did not hesitate to set up the heroine to be molested by two prodigal sons in broad daylight, and was tempted by Li Zhi, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who basically insisted on monogamy in the future, to be included in the harem. It did not hesitate to set up the heroine who is over 50 years old to have no children and grandchildren rather than have concubines, and dares to repeatedly refuse the concubine given to him by the emperor. Some people think that "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" is not considered a Mary Sue. In fact, a novel does not have to have a heavyweight male lead to be called a Mary Sue. The heroine of "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" is incompetent and low-minded, but she is admired by men. The male protagonist has feudal ideas, but he only has a love brain. Isn't this called Mary Sue? What is a Mary Sue? If anyone still thinks that the plot of this novel is rigorous, please refer to the above paragraphs again to briefly describe whether the plot of the novel really meets the rigorous standards in your mind. "Datang Mingyue" also claims to have "strict historical factual basis". How should we view this issue? For example, "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", a palace-fighting novel that claims to be based on the history of the Qing Dynasty, does not violate recorded history, but in fact it makes the historical figures collapse at every turn, and it also exaggerates the cruel strife between women. Another example is the time-travel novel "One Step in the World", which claims to be based on the history of historical wars, but has the least research on the heroine. Ye He, who got married at the age of thirty-three and died soon after, changed her identity several times and finally lived a happy life with Huang Taiji. It also portrayed many female historical figures as vicious female partners who competed with the heroine for men. From this perspective, is "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" really a romance novel based on historical research? "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" romanticizes the historical figure Pei Xingjian, and portrays many historical figures as tools that exist only to suppress the male and female protagonists. The female protagonist Kudis is the least researched. I admit that due to the author's expertise, "Datang Mingyue" has a certain emphasis on the history of art customs. But for the historical part, the author probably only read the two Tang Dynasty books "The Chronicles of Emperor Gaozong" and the biographies of a few people such as Pei Xingjian, and never thought deeply about it. He even playfully forced the male protagonist Pei Xingjian, who was over 50 years old and remarried, to dote on the little lolita female protagonist. The author agrees with the historians of the Song Dynasty that Tang Gaozong Li Zhi is dim and incompetent, cowardly and can be bullied, and secretly adds a lustful setting, so that Tang Gaozong Li Zhi still tirelessly deals with many concubines, and even had the idea of getting involved with the heroine before she got married. The author also agrees with the historians of the Song Dynasty that Wu Zetian had a vicious mind and regarded human life as nothing. She was even outraged by both humans and gods, and was not tolerated by heaven and earth. As a result, she was despised by her own relatives, and was despised and strongly opposed by the righteous people represented by the male protagonist. What is the reason for the above problems in "Datang Mingyue"? For another example, in the ancient time-travel novel "Phoenix Prisoner", the heroine Liu Chuyu, who was originally famous for being a naughty character in history, was time-traveled by a love-minded woman, so she was re-adapted into a good woman who is loyal to love. The Empress Dowager Feng of the Northern Wei Dynasty, an important political woman in history, was distorted and smeared into a marginalized and vicious female supporting role. Similarly, in "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty", the Kudis who originally entered the political stage after the death of their husbands were time-traveled by modern little women, and were therefore remade into vassal women who depended on their husbands, and even completely erased their political careers in the second half of their lives. Wu Zetian, the only empress in Chinese history, was distorted and portrayed as an evil woman with no emotions and evil intentions. The crux of "The Moon in the Tang Dynasty" and "Phoenix Prisoner" is that the authors of these two novels have a seriously biased positioning of women. Kudi and Liu Chuyu only participated in politics a little and were not very clean about women's affairs (this includes Kudi, please refer to the academic article Lu Xiangqiang's "Analysis of Pei Xingjian's Marriage" from "A Trial Analysis of Huhua Marriage Relations in the Tang Dynasty - Also on the Turkic Lineage"). They have not caused much damage to male authority, so they are still qualified to accept the author's reform of bad women. To create, we only need to adapt and reinterpret Kudi, who was a woman who entered the government affairs, drafted and wrote books in real history, into a good wife and mother who had no political ambitions and wholeheartedly assisted her husband. In real history, Liu Chuyu, who had dozens of lovers and interfered in government affairs, was adapted and reinterpreted into a good and serious woman who was loyal to love and only loved the male protagonist. However, Empress Wu Zetian and Empress Dowager Feng, who is now in charge of the dynasty, are not satisfied with their female responsibilities and publicly dominate the political situation as women, which has seriously violated male authority. Therefore, they are unforgivable and irredeemable. They must be molded into marginalized and vicious female supporting characters who are deliberately malicious and blindly persecute the heroine. The oppression of women in ancient times must have been far more severe than in modern times. The heroines Ku Dishi and Liu Chuyu in "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" and "Phoenix Prisoner" can be said to be one of the few ancient heroines who broke away from certain constraints and made valuable achievements in the ancient environment. But a very small number of ancient heroines have been reinterpreted by modern people. The independent and all-powerful women were transformed into little women who lacked autonomy, had lower IQs, relied on the protection of their male spouses, and fought with women in the house and palace. The above phenomenon is not an isolated case. The author of the recently aired "Yanyuntai" is not only the first time to obsess over a major heroine in history, but also portrays Xiao Chuo, a female politician who came to power after her husband's death, into a little Mary Sue who is alternately doted on by her husband and her first love. Another example is the yet-to-be-aired film and television drama "Win the World", which also pairs Ba Qing, a female businessman of the Qin Dynasty, with Qin Shihuang. Many authors of female novels position successful women as happy little women who are deeply loved by their husbands, content at home, caring for their husbands and raising children, and lacking in career ambition. If you create fictional literature, there is nothing wrong with it. However, female video writers and screenwriters of films and TV dramas who are keen on obscene romance are no longer satisfied with fictional creations. They have repeatedly extended their claws to real great women in ancient history, ignoring the valuable efforts of these great women, and misinterpreting real heroines in history into little Mary Sues who fought with women and were doted on by men. Their gender concepts seemed to return to before liberation overnight. The reason why "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" made serious historical mistakes is also because it is a prostitution novel. The author is from the perspective of wanting to fall in love with the historical celebrity Pei Xingjian. The history of men is regarded as the historical subject, and Cudi, as the heroine, is regarded as a non-existent woman. The relationship between the heroine Liuli and women is nothing but fighting. Many female historical figures and fictional characters are just tools that exist to suppress and harm the heroine. The female protagonist can only rely on the protection of the male protagonist. It is her destiny that the male protagonist treats her well. After reading the plot of the novel, people feel extremely depressed and dull. If "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" is just a fictional romance, then no matter how willing the heroine is to be as contemptuous as a feudal woman, I will never judge a word. However, the author insists on writing with the names of real historical figures, and portrays the historical figures beyond recognition, as if tearing and crushing beautiful things, but then covering them with inferior paint! Seeing the truth being buried and the facts being distorted, I was not only depressed and depressed, but also heartbroken beyond measure. The real story of Cudi in history was supposed to be a widow's all-powerful political career. After the death of her husband, Kudis worshiped as the emperor, drafted edicts, and reached the pinnacle of life. This is the beginning of this story. She should have written in the clouds and stood arrogantly, and should not have humbled herself to the dust and raised her eyebrows. This article is coming to an end. I do not intend to criticize a certain novel, let alone share the popularity of this article. A few years ago, I had already heard a little bit about the historical figure Yu Zhengkudi. And in the autumn of 2019, ever since I heard that the time-travel romance novel "The Bright Moon of the Tang Dynasty", whose heroine is based on Cudi, was to be adapted into a film and television, I finished reading the novel with infinite humiliation and tears. Faced with the author's cruel suppression and persecution of the heroine, I feel heartbroken and deeply regretful. I have learned from this painful experience and must tell the truth to the real Kurdish in history and get justice!
Not ordinary good-looking! It's a masterpiece.
A very wonderful book, it is rare to see it written so well. I just kept looking forward to the next book after reading it, but I was always disappointed.
Is this the book where 13 million bought the copyright to the author for 16 million? It's amazing tx
The prototype of the heroine of "Datang Mingyue" is the real winner in life! In "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" Liuli dragged her sick body to give birth to an heir for Pei Xingjian, and at the same time she had to be crushed by various female partners. But in real history, Cudi can be described as a real winner in life, and has never had an aggrieved experience like in the novel. The heroine Kudi Liuli's historical prototype is Kudi. Not only is her name unknown, but her surname is also controversial. "Shedi" is a Xianbei surname, originating from the ancient Western Qiang people. Later, some of the surnames were changed to "Kudi". By the Tang Dynasty, both "Shedi" and "Kudi" surnames existed. The "Old Book of Tang: Biography of Pei Guangting" calls him the Kudi family, "The New Book of Tang: Biography of Pei Guangting" calls him the Shedi family, and Pei Xingjian's epitaph calls him the Kudi family. However, books may have typographical errors due to ancient printing, and epitaphs may be misprinted due to unclear handwriting. Therefore, the question of whether it is "Shedi" or "Kudi" is still doubtful. In addition, based on the origin of the surname Kudi or Shedi, it may be speculated that the Kudi family may have lived in northwest China in their early years. It was Pei Xingjian who married his stepmother after he took office in Xizhou. Therefore, the younger Kudi family should have married the older Pei Xingjian than in the novel. In "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" Liuli and Pei Xingjian had four sons, but the two Tang books only record that Kudi was the mother of Pei Guangting. Pei Xingjian's epitaph has unclear records about his descendants, and there are several versions: "The eldest son/eldest grandson Shenxuan served as governor of Jingdeng and Dengzhou; the second son Yanxiu served as governor of Weiling; the second son Qingyuan was Xielu Lang; Ji Ziguangting served as a minister and minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs." Not only is the identity of Pei Shenxuan's eldest son/eldest grandson unclear, but there are also two second sons, and twins will not be called this way. The youngest son, Pei Guangting, has the highest official position among Pei Xingjian's descendants. There is some disorder in seniority, which may be related to the identity of his biological mother. Pei Xingjian also had two daughters, one married to Su Weiwei and the other to Wang Xiu. From the age of these two, it can be seen that the two daughters were born earlier. Judging from the fact that Cudi was the imperial official and only promoted Pei Guangting, Pei Guangting should be the only birth record between Cudi and Pei Xingjian. Pei Xingjian's other children's biological mothers were either Lu's or concubines. , (In August of the fifth year of Kaiyuan, the body was moved behind the spiritual pagoda of Zen Master Xinxing in Zhongnan Mountain. They were not buried together in ancient times, but their souls are all buried together, which is a legacy.) In Lu Xiangqian's "Analysis of Pei Xingjian's Marriage"—— "A Trial Discussion on Hu Hua's Marriage Relationship in the Tang Dynasty", through the relationship between Pei Xingjian and his eldest son Pei Zhenyin, his eldest grandson/eldest son's unknown identity Pei Shenxuan, and Pei Xingjian's epitaph quoting the Book of Songs "He is beautiful and Meng Jiang, his virtues are not forgotten." This Meng Jiang refers to Wen Jiang, who had a disorderly conduct during the Spring and Autumn Period. It is speculated that Ku Di was first the wife of Pei Xingjian's eldest son, Pei Zhenyin, and later married Pei Xingjian. This is considered to be the reason why Ku Di did not want to be buried together. But Lu's words to the former family cannot be used to characterize this relationship. In the biography of Pei Xingjian in the Two Tang Dynasties, there is no record of Kudi's family. Therefore, it is speculated that the reason why Kudi and Pei Xingjian were not buried together may be because the relationship between the couple was relatively dull. Historically, Pei Xingjian's life was not like that in "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" where he encountered repeated suppression, and was eventually so disappointed that he faked his death and secluded himself. Official history records that Pei Xingjian opposed Wu Zetian's establishment during the Yonghui period. This may be true, but the reason cannot be that "this is the beginning of national turmoil" written by feudal historians. After all, Wu Zetian was just Zhaoyi from a humble background and did not participate in politics. If Pei Xingjian can really foresee the future, then he himself is a time traveler. The reason why Pei Xingjian opposed Wu Zetian's establishment of a queen most likely represented the struggle between the gentry and the poor family. As a prominent family, the Pei family in Hedong would look down on Wu Zetian's poor background. After opposing Wu Zetian's establishment, Pei Xingjian was demoted to Xizhou by Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty. However, when he returned to the center of power again, he was quickly reused by Li Zhi, was given military power, and made great achievements. The only records of the Kudis are all in the Wu Zhou period, and are not the timeline in the novel "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty". Pei Xingjian's epitaph states: "The stepmother is Mrs. Kudi of Huayang, who has the virtue of being a concubine and a talented classmate. The Holy Queen came to the court, summoned her to the palace, and worshiped her as the emperor." There are similar records in two books of the Tang Dynasty. It can be seen that after Wu Zetian came to the court, Kudi worshiped as the imperial official, drafted and produced books, and was deeply favored. Regarding the position of "royal official", it is more likely that it will still be a female official. But as the person responsible for drafting the edict, Cudi must have great political power. In addition, the good relationship between Kudis and Wu Zetian is not full of contradictions as in the novel "Datang Moon". "When Ze Tianshi summoned her to the palace, she was treated very well by her relatives." ("The Biography of Pei Guangting in the Old Book of Tang Dynasty") "Empress Wu was summoned into the palace to serve as the royal official, and she was very favored by her relatives." ("The Biography of Pei Guangting in the New Book of Tang Dynasty") Pei Guangting married Wu Sansi's daughter, which also confirmed the good relationship between the Kudi family and Wu Zetian and the Wu clan during the Wu Zhou period. As for the reason for "being treated very personally", you can find it in Pei Xingjian's epitaph: "Mrs. She was deeply spiritual and prosperous. She realized the truth from afar. She was stubborn and tired, and she transcended the world. Every time she read the collected works of Zen Master Xingxing, she will always respect her." Wu Zetian believed in Buddhism and had a high level of Buddhist cultivation. He even composed the opening stanza himself: "The supremely profound and subtle Dharma has been encountered in hundreds of millions of tribulations. I have now accepted and upheld what I have seen and heard, and am willing to understand the true meaning of the Tathagata." Therefore, due to their common religious realm, the two women developed a sense of mutual sympathy and resonance, and then became close friends. Moreover, no matter whether there were more or less conflicts because of Pei Xingjian's previous demotion, they all understood each other and no longer cared about each other as in the past. On the other hand, regardless of whether the position of "royal official" is a female official or a foreign official, Kudis assisted Wu Zetian in drafting the edict, and she has become a deviant like Wu Zetian who became emperor. As a woman, she challenged male hegemony. Although still not a feminist in the modern sense. However, the two women joining hands to fight against male hegemony has become another important reason why Cudi is so "kind to each other". Historically, after the death of her husband, Kudis became the emperor, drafted edicts, and reached the pinnacle of life. She was a real winner in life. She should have great political power, write freely, stand out from the crowd, and enjoy a happy life as an independent woman. She should not be like in the romance novel "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty", where she was squeezed out by various female partners and reduced to a fertility machine, humbled to the point of dust, and raised to the highest standards!
There is neither the Tang Dynasty nor the Bright Moon, the real history is here (Part 2)
(I don't mean to criticize this novel. In the past few years, I have heard a little bit about the historical figure Yuzheng Kudi. And in the autumn of 2019, ever since I heard that the time-travel romance novel "Mingyue of the Tang Dynasty", in which the heroine is based on Kudi, was to be adapted into a film and television, I finished reading the novel with infinite humiliation and tears. Facing the author I feel heartbroken and deeply regret the brutal suppression and persecution of the Cudi family. It is a pity that no one pays attention to the historical truth, and it is a pity that many people have been led to a distorted historical understanding by this romance novel. Even such a romance novel full of loopholes can be mistaken for historical research by some historical novices! R> If "The Moon in the Tang Dynasty" is just a fictional romance, I will never judge a sentence. However, the author insists on using the names of real historical figures to write, as if he is tearing up and crushing beautiful things, but then covering them with inferior paint. I learned from the experience and must tell the truth for the real Cudi in history. Prime Minister, return justice. ) ——Continued At the end of the novel, Liuli decided to enter the court just to avenge Pei Xingjian, and use Wu Zetian's power to eliminate Pei Xingjian's former enemies. After the revenge was completed, he immediately gave up his power, resigned from Wu Zetian and left. Historically, after her husband Pei Xingjian died, Kudi Yuzheng was recruited into the palace by Wu Zetian, worshiped as Yuzheng, and drafted and produced books. This was the beginning of Kudi Yuzheng's career. Regarding the post of Yuzheng, "Emperor Ming appointed Yuzheng as Chief Silun." ("Book of Zhou·Shen Hui Zhuan") Among them, "Silun" refers to the emperor's edict. "Tongdian" also has the following record: "Later Zhou Sui Zheng Wuming Tianguan Sihui, Zongshi, Zuogongbo, Yuzheng..." It can be seen that from the Northern Zhou Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, "Yuzheng" was the external official who drafted the edict. But in the Five Dynasties period after the Tang Dynasty, "Yu Zheng" also referred to female officials. "At the time of Zhuangzong, the number of harems was particularly large, including Zhaorong, Zhaoyi, Zhaoyuan, Chushi, Yuzheng... The rest of the titles are incomparable." ("New History of the Five Dynasties·Biography of Emperor Zhuangzong of the Tang Dynasty, Empress Min Jing Liu") Before the Northern Zhou and Sui Dynasties, the official system of the Tang Dynasty no longer had the position of "Yuzheng", and in the Five Dynasties after the Tang Dynasty, there was indeed the position of "Yuzheng" as a female official. Wu Zhou established many new official positions, and there is the possibility of setting up the post of "royal official" again. The epitaph of Sima Shenwei, the husband of another female official of the Wu Zhou Dynasty, Li Shi, reads: "Mrs. Li Shi of Longxi, in the early years of the book, the empress dowager came to court to ask for female history... In the 15th year of Chenji, the imperial edict was written and written by many wives." It can be confirmed that the specific function of female officials in the Wu Zhou Dynasty was not palace affairs, but drafting edicts. Therefore, regardless of whether the "Yu Zheng" is a foreign official or a female official, the function of Kudi Yuzheng is the same as that of Yu Zheng as a foreign official. Pei Xingjian's epitaph records that "Zhongzong practiced Zuo, returned to his private family, and paid tribute every year." From "returning to his private family" and Zhongzong's humble attitude, it can be inferred that Ku Diyu was already quite visible during the Wuzhou Dynasty and had a high political status. Furthermore, Pei Guangting's epitaph records that "the rites of the queen of the Jin Dynasty of her mother's family were for the purpose of seizing power, which was in line with the state of the country. She started from Weitang and entered the Wen Dynasty." "Etiquette is for the seizure of power" as a feudal writing style indirectly pointed out how shocking such behavior was at that time. There is a bold speculation that regarding the theory of "entering the Wen Dynasty", there is indeed the possibility of becoming a foreign official. However, if Wu Zetian appointed women as foreign officials, it would inevitably touch the core interests of the patriarchal society. Therefore, it is indeed more likely that the position of "royal official" is the position of a female official. However, even if "Yu Zheng" is the official title of a female official, the real Kudi Yu Zheng in history was a woman who drafted and made books, and can be regarded as an ancient political heroine who challenged the authority of patriarchy. However, Liuli in the novel, as a modern time-traveling woman, attaches great importance to family life and has a limited taste for power. Her career has ended when she just started. She is even far less feminine than the ancient original version of Kudi Yuzheng. Not only is Kudi Liuli's concept of being a modern time traveler extremely unreasonable, there is also a time traveling woman in the novel, Cui Shisanniang, who also looks like a woman from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Women in the Tang Dynasty had the right to reconcile with marriage. When Cui Shisanniang was forced to marry a loser in history, she had every chance to reconcile with Pei Yan. What's more, Pei Yan is a political opportunist, and his personal charm is probably far less than that of the male protagonist Pei Xingjian. However, Cui Shisanniang's concept is like that of women in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, who "married a chicken, followed the chicken, married a dog, followed the dog". She only focused on planning a future for her husband, and even tried to change history. Many passionate and unrestrained women of the Tang Dynasty in the novel are also portrayed as short-sighted housewives, such as Princess Linhai, Princess Changle, and Mrs. Rongguo. The eldest princesses of the Tang Dynasty had a residence of 600 households and an independent princess palace. However, the eldest princesses became vicious female partners vying for petty profits in the house fight novel. Historically, Mrs. Rong Guo believed in Buddhism and had a pure heart. But in the novel, Mrs. Rongguo began to have a formal friendship with Liuli because Liuli sold her a large property, and Mrs. Rongguo only wanted to cover up her grandson's crimes, so many of her maidservants were silenced. She was like a little woman who put interests first and was unclear about good and evil. "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" has a certain fantasy color in its setting, including the prophecies of Li Chunfeng and Xuanzang, but it still maliciously smeares religious culture. Although Liuli said in the later period that he had read some Buddhist scriptures, he definitely did not read them at all. If Liuli's character image could be consistent with the real Kudi Yuzheng in history and had a certain degree of Buddhist cultivation, he would not have gone to Da Ci'en Temple to only focus on concrete murals. He would not have thought that Xuanzang supported Wu Zetian in ascending to the throne as an act of condescension because "there is no true pure land in the world." He would not have misinterpreted Wu Zetian's naming of his son "Shenxuan", and he would not have been deeply prejudiced against Wu Zetian. In short, through the vilification of many historical figures, as well as the protagonist's incorrect ideas and timid behavior, the entire novel makes people feel seriously depressed and dull. The so-called "Datang Mingyue" is neither "Datang" nor "Mingyue". "The Moon of the Tang Dynasty" allows celebrities in the Tang Dynasty to hold on to the foolish loyalty of the Ming and Qing Dynasties and live an extremely depressive and mediocre life. The "Ming Moon of the Tang Dynasty" that was supposed to be "brightly dressed, angry horses, orchids like flowers" has become a gloomy and dull "dark moon".
