Kong Yiji had a tragic experience. The name Kong Yiji in the novel was taken from a child's red book. Over time, everyone called him that.

If you study the reason carefully, you will find reasons for holding on to it, but you will all use words to forgive yourself. I don't want to get the meaning, but I use the words in vain. I can use these two words to argue endlessly, and finally I can use them for one purpose.
