false accusations

Focusing on the "false accusations" of wrongful convictions during the Southern Song Dynasty, these six novels explore a single period of history through the first-person perspectives of Yue Yun, Zhao Gou, Qin Hui, and Yue Lei. The author transforms historical materials into a lucid narrative, recreating the subtle psychological depths of these characters within the established historical framework. The central character of this series is Yue Yun, the son of Yue Fei, who died at the age of twenty-three. Through the eyes of these young men, the stereotypical tragic hero is reborn as a mortal, and the ant destined for destruction finds the most precious bond.

For years, I have been a devoted follower of this novel. Its simplicity and clarity, coupled with a profound sense of sorrow, evoke the turbulent dynamics of the remnant mountains and rivers, and convey the rise and fall of a nation in the hands of a single individual. Heaven and earth are unforgiving, their ties severing. Neither life nor death can he endure. When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter, leaving a vast expanse of white, pure and clear. So many flashes of life and death, so many Chinese dreams, are all woven together in this compassionate and merciful novel, "Moxuyou." I firmly believe it is one of the most captivating novels of our time. —Li Xiuwen Yue Fei's story has long been ironclad in storytelling, yet Ni Zhange manages to reconstruct it, returning dust to dust and earth to earth, resurrecting the stereotyped tragic hero as a mortal. She could always hold onto that breath of energy that was initially lively, then gradually lingering and subsiding, letting it rise, flow through, then slide down to the bottom of her heart, finally transforming into a pool of clear winter water—a vibrant life is inevitably futile, heroes are also puppets, and immortal fame cannot offset even a fraction of sorrow. —Zhao Song is a man of profound skill without being pedantic, of overflowing poetic sentiment without being pedantic, of meticulous craftsmanship with a sincerity that feels like it has grown from the earth. Any one of these qualities is breathtaking. Combined into one, there is no one else like Ni Zhan Ge. —Liu Bo
