"Whale Riding in the Four Seas": Ma Boyong and Wu Zetian built a Buddha Island full of treasures in Nanyang.

Many historical unresolved problems are difficult problems that historians need to overcome. They have exhausted their lives, but they may not solve a mystery even if they exhaust their lives. However, for writers, the unsolved case is equal to the unknown, and the unknown is equal to the wasteland of freedom. They can ferment all kinds of emotions and cultivate magnificent imagination in this wasteland, let them bloom the flowers of poetry and bear the fruits of stories. In Chinese history, there are many unsettled cases that are quite popular with writers of ancient and modern times. For example, Xu Fu, who went to sea in the Qin Dynasty and did not return, for example, Concubine Yang Guifei, whose cause of death in the Tang Dynasty is a mystery, or Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunqi, whose whereabouts is unknown in Ming Dynasty.

and "Whale Riding in the Four Seas" is a fantasy story built on the wasteland of Emperor Jianwen's unsuccessful case. However, the wasteland becomes the sea, and the corresponding real historical deeds only preserve the core, but wear a different coat . For example, the coup of Yan Wang Zhu Di, the novel retains its bloody cruel core, but turns it into a more naked killing. Although the deeds of the characters in the novel are different from the historical facts, the character of the characters is highly consistent with the historical figures.

Jianwen Emperor Zhu Yunshao in history, "History of Ming Dynasty" praised him as "benevolent and talented." He is close to filial piety and is gentle; he has learned from Fang Xiaoru and others, and has good character. This is of course from a good point of view, but on the other hand, behind these beautiful characters, there are corresponding cowardice, bad intentions and book business spirit. There is a story about Zhu Yunzhen and Zhu Di in the wild history. It is said that when Zhu Yunxuan was the grandson of the emperor, the grandfather Zhu Yuanzhang once joined the "wind blowing horsetail thousand lines", and asked him to pair up with the king of Yan Zhudi. Zhu Yunxie said to him: "The rain hits the wool." Zhu Di said to him: "The sun shines on the scales of the dragon." It can be seen that Zhu Yunxie is not only weak in personality, but also small in spirit. These personalities of Emperor Jianwen

were completely transferred to the actor Zhu Jianwen by the author of "Whale Riding in the Four Seas". Zhu Jianwen is sincere and benevolent. Like Zhu Yunshou, Zhu Jianwen's courage is not big, but he himself has realized this. For revenge, Qili merged with Haizangzhu and possessed the ability to fly over the walls, but she would eventually be swallowed by Haizangzhu, but Qili thought it was worth it. Jianwen was very moved when he heard about it, and lamented that he was also feeling revenge. Compared to Qili, he was really too leisurely.

"The Four Seas Whale Riding" is an overhead novel, one of the biggest features is its fantasy imagination. It breaks the barriers between people, animals, plants, and utensils, and truly realizes that all things have animism and all beings are equal. At the beginning of the novel, it is the power of man and the storm, and the storm has become a spiritual thing that is repelled by others. Then, the spiritual blue dragon boat appeared on the stage, and then more fantasy appeared: the sea pearls that can give people magical abilities, the temples and turtle monks on the bottom of the sea...Every appearance of the fantasy will make you amazed. It can be opened this way, it can be opened this way.

I suspect that the author of "Whale Riding in the Four Seas" is well versed in the way of writing American dramas, because its story is arranged in a very good rhythm. After a gentle period, there will be a small tension, then another small tension, and another small tension. , And finally there was a bang, there was a big explosion. After the explosion, everything returned to temporary tranquility, and then took readers to ride a new round of roller coaster. Let's take the beginning as an example. After all, a good beginning is half the battle. I was attracted by the beginning of this book and fell into the trap.

The first chapter of this book is actually a big hit. The beginning is the confrontation between people and the storm. Then, the storm subsided, the ocean became tame, and everything returned to tranquility. Next, Jianwen appeared on the stage and went to and fro with the old eunuch for the little things of eating, drinking and having fun. When Jianwen had nothing to do, he decided to steal Yuxi. At this time, I was still holding a relaxed attitude of watching children play, who knew that in a blink of an eye, the author let Jianwen witness the bloody scene of his father being killed. The incident was so unexpected that I followed Jianwen in a panic.
