Other clouds come from the poem Other Clouds written by Xia Wanchun, a poet in the Southern Ming Dynasty.
Huating and Yun Jian are the old names of ancient Songjiang (now Shanghai), which shows that the two dramas are in the same strain and present a tragic color.
But apart from the influence of the plot, it is the most unbearable to imitate the etiquette concept of the Song Dynasty in the play, that is, the Confucian concept of Jun Jun, minister, father and son, and the Taoist thought of inaction. That is, everyone should abide by their own moral etiquette and their own identity and status. Prince Xiao had the support of his uncle Gu, who mastered the military power, and the support of courtiers, but he had to be wronged to survive under the slander of his eldest brother. If the same script is set in the Tang Dynasty, I estimate that the next step will be a coup drama similar to the "Xuanwu Gate Incident".
Of course, these are just the fantasies of our descendants. Since the Northern Song Dynasty, attention has been paid to Confucianism and etiquette, which has helped the country and society get out of the chaotic era of "the emperor strengthened Ma Zhuang with soldiers" and "the soldiers strengthened Ma Zhuang, and the handsome men strengthened the enemy", which made the people not hear the sound of war for a hundred years and created the most glorious era of ancient China culture. But it was also in this era that the bloodiness in Chinese culture was erased, without Ban Chao's piety and Yang Jiong's samurai spirit of "Better to be a centurion than a scholar". But because of this, after the cliff mountain, the land of China fell into the hands of Meng Yuan.
Liu Bingyi, Emperor Xuan Di of the Han Dynasty, once taught the prince, "The Han family has its own system, which is based on the hegemony of Taoism. How can it be pure moral education and Zhou political education? " To put it bluntly, the way to govern the country is to learn from Confucianism abroad. The northern song dynasty fooled the world with Confucian etiquette, but I didn't expect to be lame in the end.
