Chapter 59 059 When will the new book review online article gimmick end

Chapter 59

【By the way, has anyone read the new article about Teriyaki Chicken Legs? Please share your thoughts! 】

[Here it comes! I knew this book would be discussed. When I opened "Palace Concubine" with great expectations, I really didn't expect the story to go this way...]

[I too, thought it was a sweet story, but then I saw what it was? ! ! ! ]

[Has no one noticed the setting of the article "Palace Concubine"? The selection of concubines, maids, eunuchs, concubines of various palaces, the emperor... It is a very rich but gloomy setting. The concubines do not look like living people. They look noble, but they are tools for the superiors to decide life and death.]

[+1+1, although I don’t understand some of the settings in the plot, this article really makes me feel very uncomfortable, and I am curious about how the plot will unfold next. ]

[The author used so many beautiful words to describe Qi Yun, but he killed her without saying anything. I was really...super shocked.]

【I also……】

[It’s obviously an ancient theme, I don’t know why I’m so interested in it. 】

【I also……】

As soon as the article "Palace Concubine" was published, the online literature forum immediately became lively, and posts were posted one after another. Before the article "Palace Concubine" was published, the discussion about this article was still "Can Teriyaki Chicken Legs be used to write ancient literature?" and "What should I do if the new article "Teriyaki Chicken Legs" fails?" After the article was published, the content automatically switched to——

[I really want to strangle the emperor! ]

[Don't tell me that the heroine will fall in love with the pig-like emperor, I will never allow it! ]

[The setting of "Palace Concubine" draws on the ancient Chinese official system, and is divided into the harem version and the former dynasty version. To be honest, Teriyaki Chicken Legs' ability to find information is simply the top 1 in the online literary circle. After reading "Palace Concubine", I even suspect that Teriyaki Chicken Legs is a top student of Chinese history in a certain university. ]

[+1, but you must consider that the last book written by Chicken Legs is "Infinite World". After reading "Infinite World", you will suspect that Teriyaki Chicken Legs is a top student in the field of killing. Even professional killers are not as good as Teriyaki Chicken Legs in killing people.]

【……】

Shang Qin is a student at the Azure College on Dusa Star, majoring in Chinese history. In the process of human evolution towards the interstellar age, the history of various planets has gradually been lost, and Chinese history belongs to one of the categories.

The reason why Shang Qin chose this major is because he is of Chinese descent. Shang and Qin are both important dynasties in Chinese history. Whenever he learns information related to these dynasties, he feels that he is not alone in this vast galaxy and that he has a place to come from.

Not everyone knows clearly who they are.

However... relevant information about Chinese history is indeed difficult to find.

Shang Qin was recently looking up some information related to some officials and found that his hair was falling out one by one and hair care products were not working at all.

He even couldn't help complaining that even though we have entered the interstellar age, humans still cannot solve the fatal problem of hair loss. The technology of artificial wigs has been very advanced, but it cannot prevent the hair from falling off the forehead automatically.

“Wow, this book is amazing!”

"I really doubt that the author graduated from our major, so it is really difficult to find a job if you study our major, right? I feel that the author's experience is much deeper than mine, so he can only write online articles."

"It's not our specialty. If it were our specialty, the principal would have boasted about it on the official website long ago."

Shang Qin was so worried that his hair turned bald in the dormitory, but he heard his roommates mumbling about something beside him.

There are many colleges and universities in the Blue Galaxy. In addition to the major military academies, there are also many comprehensive universities. Among them, the Azure College is a rather mediocre one.

The presence of Dusa Star itself is not high, and the Azure Academy is not even considered a top university on Dusa Star. Therefore, once a celebrity emerges on campus, the school’s official website will inevitably brag about it.

"What book?" Shang Qin turned around and asked curiously.

"Online literature section, new articles about Teriyaki Chicken Legs, about ancient themes."

Shang Qin knew about Teriyaki Chicken Leg. They were college students who loved to read online novels. The book "Infinite World" was very popular among their classmates some time ago. With his identity as a healer exposed, Teriyaki Chicken Leg became more famous than any other online novel author.

However, Shang Qin did not read "Infinite World". He has a phobia for popular articles. In other words, the more popular an article is, the less he wants to read it. Even if the outside world describes "Infinite World" highly or many people recommend it, Shang Qin still refuses to join.

"There are some notes about the Chinese official system in his new article, but it is hard to tell whether it is nonsense or real information."

"It's absolutely nonsense." Shang Qin concluded before even reading the text.

In fact, he particularly dislikes online writers who add some specious scientific knowledge for the sake of showing off their skills. Readers enjoy reading it and will think that everything written in the article is true. Once a fixed impression is formed, it is impossible to correct it even if they want to.

Shang Qin opened the book "Palace Concubine" with a casual expression.

As soon as he saw the title, he knew what the article would be about. It was nothing more than the tragic love between an emperor and his concubine, an ancient version of "The Amnesiac Marshal's Deep Love".

"Shen Fangyi, daughter of a scholar from the Hanlin Academy."

"Qi Yun, daughter of the Minister of Personnel."

"Rong Xuege's father is the Left Governor of Huguang, in charge of the administration and finances of a province. Although she is the daughter of a second-rank official, in Huguang, Rong Xuege can be regarded as a top official's daughter. However, she is very polite to Shen Fangyi and Qi Yun. After all, the Ministry of Personnel is in charge of the promotion of officials in the world. Even if her father, who is a second-rank official, enters the capital, he may not be able to obtain the position of the third-rank assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel."

"Qi Yun's father holds great power, but Shen Fangyi's father is extremely noble. The rule that only Hanlin can enter the cabinet has long been in place. If Shen's father takes another step forward, he will enter the Ministry of Rites, and the day of becoming a prime minister will be just around the corner."

Shang Qin: “…”

Why is it different from what he imagined?

He quickly turned to the next page and saw a relatively detailed list of official titles in the supplementary notes of the article "Palace Concubines", which mainly explained to readers the differences in status among the concubines.

Among the many beautiful ladies, Qi Yun and Rong Xuege's family backgrounds are both amazing, but the article also mentions beautiful ladies who are the granddaughters of grand secretaries and the daughters of the Chief Censor.

Shang Qin opened a document he had found not long ago.

The records say that there was no prime minister, and the prime minister's power was divided among the six ministers of various ministries. This is understandable in the Shang and Qin dynasties, but later on, unfamiliar terms such as grand secretary and Hanlin appeared, and the six ministers of various ministries seemed to be excluded. The more records about the Shang and Qin dynasties are checked, the more confused I feel.

Some explanations in "Palace Concubine" suddenly made him feel enlightened.

Qi Yun's father was clearly the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and the next step up was the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Why did Qi's father know that he could not enter the cabinet?

Because the Grand Secretary no longer has the power to appoint and dismiss officials, the emperor will not give it.

Shang Qin compared the information he found with that of the book and then read "Palace Concubine". He felt that the description in "Palace Concubine" could just fill in the gaps that he didn't understand.

Although he couldn't be 100% sure that what was said in "Palace Concubine" was true, Shang Qin had a vague hunch... at least, it wouldn't be nonsense.

He read the latest chapters of "Palace Concubine" from beginning to end.

Qi Yun’s death shocked him - the noble identity of the daughter of the Minister of Personnel was still before his eyes, but in the blink of an eye, Qi Yun had lost her life.

The cruelty of imperial power was revealed at this time.

"What do you think, Shang Qin? Don't you also think the author is quite good? Even if he made it up, he did it in a very decent way. Although readers may not understand it, he has set the tone. Even if readers want to refute it, they don't know how to refute it."

The roommates thought that "Palace Concubine" was great, but they knew Shang Qin's character better and knew that if they praised "Palace Concubine" too much, Shang Qin would definitely start finding faults the next second.

Shang Qin was particularly serious about this kind of thing, and they had become accustomed to each other's personalities.

But after waiting for a long time, Shang Qin's expression was calm with a hint of doubt. He had no intention of scolding her, and even -

Shang Qin pointed to the note below the text and said, "What he wrote might be correct."

"ha?"

Now it was the roommates' turn to be surprised.

“Is this true or false?”

“Isn’t this just an ordinary online article?”

Shang Qin dug out the information he had found a while ago, as well as papers written by scholars in the field: "Don't you think these parts are very consistent? The explanation in "Palace Concubine" can just fill in this blank."

Roommates: “…”

"We really read it as an online article and just wanted to have some fun."

As a result, according to Shang Qin, "Palace Concubines" can stand up to textual research, which reminds them of the fear of being dominated by professional courses, and their enthusiasm for reading was immediately dampened.

To read literature, you have to learn relevant knowledge of the major. Where is the fun in reading literature?

Damn it!

Shang Qin was inspired by "Palace Concubine" and went to look for professional materials to support his argument. The more he read, the more he felt that the content described in "Palace Concubine" should be in line with historical facts.

Although he knew very well that the author did not write this book to show off his historical knowledge, and just looking at the plot of "Palace Concubine", he also knew that the author had no intention of writing it as a popular science history article, but the problems that had been plaguing Shang Qin were indeed solved.

Shang Qin was just about to add a favorite and reward to the teriyaki chicken leg, when suddenly, a new post appeared on his Star Network homepage.

"When will the online literature gimmicks end?"

Shang Qin usually doesn't pay attention to this kind of content. Perhaps because he had just watched "Palace Concubines" today, he clicked on this post for some unknown reason and found that the object of the poster's criticism was actually teriyaki chicken legs.

Shang Qin occasionally acted as a troll on Starnet - but only in his professional field, so as soon as the other party started to talk, he knew what the other party wanted to say.

[After the gimmick of unrestrained killing created by "Infinite World", the entire online literature section is filled with all kinds of bloody articles. I thought that Teriyaki Chicken Legs would take a break for a while and write some good articles that are beneficial to the body and mind for readers, but I didn't expect that Teriyaki Chicken Legs would make up nonsense again. 】

[I think it’s probably because the ancient subject matter is too unpopular, or that Teriyaki Chicken Legs has run out of ideas, so he tried to create an unusual illusion by making special contributions that are different from other authors, such as making up some wonderful backgrounds that others have never heard of.]

[Other authors write about the emperor as handsome and elegant, but he chose to write about the emperor as ugly, and then described some eye-catching content, such as the physical examination of the concubines, in order to cover up the fact that the article "Palace Concubine" is not good to read.]

[Real good writing does not need to be fabricated. Those fabricated official ranks will not make the performance of "Palace Concubine" better, but will make readers run away. 】
