The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 824 About This Book (End of the Book)

Some friends asked me what was the original intention of my creation, and why I chose such a concubine of Kangxi who was not very conspicuous in history to write about it.

In fact, there are two reasons:
The first is Wen Xi's family background and identity, as well as her special posthumous title. History has not left a relatively clear and complete explanation for future generations.

The second is of course that there are too many people who have written about other concubines, I am afraid that I will hit the street so that I don’t know myself hahaha.

The point that everyone complained about the most in the early stage of this book is why Wen Xi didn't wake up early and leave Xuan Ye, a scumbag.

The little cuties who have read the book know that my writing is not cool, not only all the characters in the book have historical prototypes, including the ones I describe.

All the costumes, jewelry, and decorations painted are all described according to the atlas of existing cultural relics published by the Forbidden City, and there are very few things that I made up.

There are also the rules in the palace, sleeping, eating, and greetings, which are all based on historical records.

Regarding historical events, it is even more accurate to which day and which hour.

When writing this book from the perspective of respecting history, it is doomed that this book will not be a cool article that caters to the taste of the public.

I think a character's character must have his own characteristics if he wants to stand up.

For example, Xuan Ye is sensitive and suspicious, and no one will treat each other sincerely except himself. It is because when he was young, he faced the extremely twisted love between his biological mother and Fulin, and between Fulin and Dong Eshi, which caused his heart to be traumatized since childhood. left a shadow.Coupled with the emperor's balancing act, he finally formed that kind of character.Everyone said he was a scumbag, but if he was placed in such a history, his scumbag would always be many times more advanced than many irresponsible scumbags in today's society.

Another example is that Rong Yue went from being inferior and soft to being completely vicious and mean, because she was persecuted by others after entering the palace, her family broke up with her, the emperor used her and misunderstood Wanyu's kindness to her. It turned her into such a horrible woman in the end.

So, I don't think a person can be bad without reason and good without reason.

Human nature is selfish and has its own shortcomings.

Compared with the layered emotional changes, I think the heroine who kills all directions as soon as she appears on the stage is a bit of a modern Mary Sue.

Another point, I have been suppressing the character of the heroine, and a more important reason why I didn't let go until the end is the problem of logical self-consistency.

When I write a character or a story, I must first believe that the character exists and that the story actually happened.

So the heroine has never done any thorny things that are inconsistent with her identity. Some people may have said that the heroine has little tricks in the early stage, but no one has said that the heroine is stupid. I am very relieved Hahahahaha.

As for the so-called playing tricks, I think in my understanding, any normal person, a person of flesh and blood, has something to pursue in his life, and he wants to live in peace.

No one is born thinking about how to kill others. If someone slaps himself, you have to put arsenic in his dinner.

These anti-human thoughts are placed on the heroine. If she can live beyond [-] words, I don’t even believe it.

If I can't convince myself, then I still sell the things I write for you to read, and I think it is cheating money.

There are nearly 200 characters who have appeared in this book, and nearly 40 important characters.

For these forty people, I wrote biographies for each of them in the early stage of creation. In the biographies, I briefly explained their origins, backgrounds, personalities, and appearances, so as to avoid stereotyped people. Same personality, same tone of voice.

After so many characters collided together, one thing I found was that my outline could not constrain the development of the plot at all.

The original number of words in this book is only 100 million. I promised everyone from the beginning that I will not write a single word of nonsense in the main text. Sometimes I wrote [-] words in a chapter, revised and revised, and finally there is nothing left Less than two thousand words.

Even with such a compressed length, it still ends the main text with more than 160 million words.

I'm not sure if I have a good grasp of everyone's scale, because I am a person who has never read novels, and I don't know the routines of writing novels at all, let alone the routines of writing web articles.

But I can assure you that the character Wen Xi in this book is flesh and blood.

She really lives in the palace, every movement, every look, every word is real.

Maybe one day, I will write a lot of books that cater to the market because of the number of subscriptions.

But I still remember that when I first decided to engage in this matter, my original intention was not to make a lot of money, but to obey my own heart and write a work that I could read.

Of course, I never imagined that I would have so many readers.

Occasionally, one or two of my friends have a particularly good relationship, and I have read this book in private.

They jokingly told me that if you don’t have any literary literacy, you might not even be able to read all the words in your book.

So everyone here, I am afraid that they are all representatives of the Chinese class in the past, hahaha~~~~
just kidding.

But without your support, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to hold on for so long.

The process of creation is an extremely boring process. When I chose this path, after going to work during the day, I almost sacrificed all my entertainment time.

I am the same as thousands of authors, working hard to make the stories I tell to be loved and recognized by readers.

Every comment of yours, good or bad, I take to heart.

(Although the cuties who read this book don’t seem to like to comment very much hahahahaha~)

Admittedly, although this book fits very closely with real history, but also because of this, I have to admit that the whole text is shrouded in a low pressure, and when I look back, I also feel very depressed.

I don't like this feeling of depression, so I changed my perspective in the new book.

When I opened a new book, I communicated with several colleagues and editors, and I said that I thought about Concubine Xi.

The advice they gave me was, stop writing, for fear of dying.

Because many readers of this book are already saying that I copied Zhen Huan’s biography (lower BB, I really didn’t copy it! Don’t just read a show at the beginning and say I copied it! Hey! I’m so mad!!!!) I also want to "commit crimes against the wind" and run to write about Zhen Huan. I'm afraid I'm dozing off and looking for a pillow.

But I'm very surprised, why can't I touch this character when Zhuyu is in front?

Why can't I tell you a story of warmth in the palace from a completely different angle, a joyful, second-year, and even some sand sculpture angle?

I'm not sure if I can do it, but I'll try my best.

Finally, thank you again and again for your company along the way.

I hope that every penny you spend here is worth it hahahahahahaha~
Love you guys and happy new year!
