In the latest chapter, Lao Mo asked the protagonist to sing a modern song, which caused an uproar - beyond Lao Mo's expectation.
Lao Mo hurried back and took a closer look. There were two reasons. On the one hand, Lao Mo didn't reveal the protagonist's thoughts enough. He only said "I don't want to seem weird. It's my first time to sing a modern song... I can't help myself." It is not clear, causing readers to misunderstand; on the other hand, readers may not read too carefully and fail to see the implication of Lao Mo's words, so they do not understand it - in short, it is Lao Mo's fault.
Lao Mo has changed it again and here is an explanation of some of the arrangements made over a period of time:
First of all, the protagonist singing modern songs is not pretending. Who pretends to be in front of his wife when he has nothing to do? That life is too sad - specifically, please re-read the chapter "Three Insufficiencies" revised by Lao Mo. Lao Mo has an explanation in his article.
Secondly, many readers do not understand the fact that Sister Wang Xi did not become a queen, but became a concubine. In fact, from the perspective of the person who has the deepest understanding of the protagonist, that is, Lao Mo himself, it is impossible to make Sister Wang Xi his queen.
Please read the section where Sister Wang Xi first appeared. She said that she only read the "Female Commandments" and "The Classic of Filial Piety" - regardless of whether her words are true or not, at least the image of Sister Wang Xi being deeply poisoned by ethics has been established. As a modern person, how could the protagonist love her? Please take a look at the exchange between the fictional character Zhuang Jingjia and the Queen Mother. The comparison with Sister Wang Xi should be very clear.
Secondly, Sister Wang Xi is recorded in the official history as a decent queen and a good wife - several readers used this as a basis to defend her against injustice. What is the actual situation? Anyone who has read the daily records and other historical materials carefully knows that the combination of the two is a complete marital tragedy.
Let’s analyze it based on historical data and the personality characteristics of Emperor Wanli himself:
In history, Emperor Wanli was oppressed by ethics and religion, and his psychology was distorted. Before taking office, he was a well-behaved baby who didn't even have a rebellious stage. After taking office, he was a giant baby. He has a low self-esteem, vicious and cunning character, and is extremely selfish. Therefore, his behavior is closely related to his childhood experience - on the one hand, he was inseparable from Sister Wang Xi in his youth and pretended to be good; on the other hand, he was crazy about Concubine Zheng, because Concubine Zheng was the one who admired him and obeyed him. As for the empress's emotional needs, Emperor Wanli did not consider them.
After her middle age, Sister Wang Xi had a bad temper, frequently beating and killing palace officials, and often contradicted Emperor Wanli. This is recorded in official history. Why is this so? Lao Mo analyzed that it was because the "decent" sister Wang Xi looked down on her husband. The marriage relationship between the two was just a fake flower decorated with feudal ethics, and was full of dirty shit underneath.
The above is Lao Mo's explanation for why Sister Wang Xi cannot be used as the queen. Some readers asked, why should Sister Wang Xi be the imperial concubine? Wouldn't it be better if there was no such person - then the conflict of ethics represented by the protagonist and Empress Dowager Li would have one less grip. Lao Mo should leave more threads to facilitate the development of the story later.
Thirdly, regarding the attendant room, the martial arts military aircraft department and the renovated conference room, many readers think that some names should be given that are in line with the times, otherwise it will be easy to cause drama - Lao Mo invites everyone to take on the role of the protagonist. If you are The emperor who keeps his word can't use his accustomed name in every corner. Isn't that too unfair to himself? These are all implicit, and Lao Mo has not explained clearly. I will explain it here, and please forgive me, the reader.
Let’s talk about the monthly pass. After January 1st, Qidian has a new rule. If the author updates more than 4,000 words per day, the subscription income will be divided into 30% and 70%, and there will also be bonuses for welfare monthly passes. Lao Mo is very greedy; in addition, Qidian is in order to encourage writing. As a reward, he gave a large monthly ticket and share rewards. Some good friends also persuaded Lao Mo to get a silver alliance for himself, so that he could make a profit without spending much money. But Lao Mo really couldn’t bear to give himself a reward, so the monthly ticket rankings dropped a lot. Of course, the biggest reason was that the quality of Lao Mo’s writing was not high. If he wrote a masterpiece, these would be just clouds, and Lao Mo would only Can continue to work hard and strive to write at a higher level.
Finally, let me talk about the update. Let Lao Mo write this kind of speech. If he writes a thousand words, he can write two thousand words in one hour. It will definitely be completed in two hours. But writing the main text - Lao Mo tried several times, but he really couldn't do it when he was working part-time. I sincerely apologize! And thanks to everyone's support, Lao Mo's monthly ticket performance has not declined too badly.
Thank you again, Lao Mo, for the above heartfelt words.
