Chapter 53 "Ming Dynasty"
601 living room.
Because Liang Yining thought that the two of them would have a more atmosphere to study together and insisted on doing homework in the living room, Lin Jing had to give up the small desk in the room and move it to the small sofa in the living room.
Ten:20 am.
"Oh, it's so boring." Liang Yining threw the book in her hand aside, then lay on the table with her upper body, sighing constantly.
Lin Jing turned her head and looked at the book that fell beside her. "Plato" was one of the books in the list that made countless students grit their teeth and sigh. Liang Yining stayed up late last night and finished reading "Homera Epic".
"People's love is purely holy, far more than despicable, greedy, short-lived, and easily bored physical desires noble and elegant... Who likes to listen to a bearded man who has been buried for thousands of years to comment on love? I really can't understand why people thousands of years ago like to teach in this way of dialogue, like the Analects of Confucius, who destroys people tirelessly!" Liang Yining sighed deeply.
"If you have time to sigh here, you might as well hurry up and finish it."
"Have you finished your homework?"
"Um."
"Then what are you writing, love letters? No, you, a person who is so beautiful, gentle, beautiful and generous that I am jealous of, don't you need to write love letters? It's almost the same for others to write for you. Ah, are you going to write novels again?" Liang Yining looked at Lin Jing, who was writing rustly, and guessed boredly.
"Not a novel."
"What is that? Let me give you some comments." Liang Yining sat up, then looked like a soft and boneless person, and pointed to Lin Jing.
"The weather is hot, don't lean over. This is a written chapter. Take it over and read it." Seeing this, Lin Jing quickly handed the manuscript to Liang Yining.
Liang Yining did not sit aside to look at it as he was, but instead leaned against Lin Jing's back, leaning on the armrest of the sofa, half lying, and looking at it with interest.
"'Chapter 1, Childhood', it's not a novel." Liang Yining muttered, but when she thought Lin Jing was lying to her and continued to read, she was soon stunned.

"What do you write like your resume?"
"In general, there will be some similar strange phenomena in the later history books..."
"Haha, it's quite interesting. It's much better than the things written by those who are still alive." After reading one, Liang Yining covered her stomach and laughed non-stop.
"Those things in the Ming Dynasty."
"Are you going to write a history book?"
"Not a history book."
"Is that a historical novel like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"?"
"It's not a historical novel."
"Stop showing off, say it, what is it written?"
"You can call it a historical review."
That's right, Lin Jing is writing "What Things in the Ming Dynasty" by Mingyue in later generations, a best-selling book that caused a huge sensation on the Internet and sold more than 10 million.
This book is not a history book or a novel. Just as Mingyue said in the foreword, it is "Notes on Ming".
Lin Jing felt that Mingyue might have learned from Yu Qiuyu's historical prose, because she found that Mingyue also liked to use imagination to describe historical details in sensational words, and fill the gap in the "historical truth".
The advantage of this writing method is that it can make the article full of infectiousness and easily resonate with readers. However, the disadvantages are also obvious, which makes people feel that the author likes to carry private goods, which is too subjective, which makes the article distorted, and becomes a more serious joke.
Of course, Mingyue’s original intention was not to write a historical paper of the Ming Dynasty, so she didn’t care whether “What Things in the Ming Dynasty” have in historical research. Her purpose was to make history come alive again and write a book that allows people to understand history easily.
After all, there are too many serious historical works, and there is no shortage of one he wrote.
It is precisely because of this that he uses his unique relaxed and humorous narrative writing style to write the history he understands to those who want to read, just like he usually chats about the streets and alleys.
Perhaps those who are used to reading historical works with citations, their own macro structures and conjectures are not interested in this popular reading and think it has no academic value.
Lin Jing in his previous life had a history teacher who didn’t like this book very much and thought it was not suitable for people who had no knowledge of history, and would teach those children who had not read the official history of the Ming Dynasty.
Because although history is a girl who can be dressed up by others, everyone can have their own opinions, sometimes infusing too many personal opinions will hinder the truth of history to a certain extent. Just as Yu Qiuyu once said, "History of Ming Dynasty" is the most perfect historical book among the twenty-four histories, it makes people feel unreliable.
This is why "Things in the Ming Dynasty" is just a best-selling book that is a pastimes after dinner. It is a very big regret that Mingyue failed to take into account both fun and academic nature.
Lin Jing has only read the first to fourth volumes of "What Things in the Ming Dynasty", and the original work has seven volumes, which means she needs to complete the remaining three volumes by herself.
However, the framework has been established and the writing techniques have been established. As long as she reads history books, she will be fine to write according to this model. There will be no deviation in general, that is, some details may have similarities and differences.
In fact, even if there are four volumes of the original work in my memory, she cannot copy it word for word.
Because in order to make the article interesting and closer to the public's taste, Mingyue used a large number of ridiculous online languages in later generations. However, for people of this era, these online languages were like old scholars reading Martian articles, and it was impossible to understand them.
So she had to use another expression to replace these words with the current popular sayings.
Moreover, there are many loopholes in the four volumes that Lin Jing has read, which may be related to the serialized creation method of Mingyue in front of him. If the speed is fast and the information is not fully prepared, the quality will inevitably be sacrificed.
However, the issue of "informative" is not a problem for Lin Jing, who has a memory that never forgets. She can fill these small loopholes by reading a lot of historical materials of the Ming Dynasty.
Of course, some major loopholes cannot be filled. After all, the tone of "Things in the Ming Dynasty" is full of jokes, and it is a popular reading material. If you really want to fill it, you can only start over with the whole book. But in this way, "Things in the Ming Dynasty" will no longer be "Things in the Ming Dynasty".
"Don't waste time talking to me, write quickly, write quickly, I'm still waiting to read." Liang Yining was like the fans of later online novels, Cui Geng, who was self-informed, came!
"You are going to talk to me."
Chapter completed!
