We all know that the rulers of the Qing Dynasty are alien rulers to the Han people. But Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty was a good emperor. Because he is a good emperor, this novel is very different from Jin Yong's traditional martial arts novels. This novel is not as heavy as before, which also reflects Jin Yong's psychological changes when he created the Duke of Lushan. He is no longer as black and white as he was when he was young, and puts national hatred in the first place, just like many plots in the sculpture trilogy, but keeps a great love in his heart.
When we read Jin Yong's novels again today, we can clearly see the psychological changes of Mr. Jin Yong in different creative periods. For example, in the process of shaping the Duke of Lushan Mountain, we can imagine that Jin Yong set the history in the Qing Dynasty, and at the same time, he did not praise the rebels of the imperial court like "Eternal Dragon Slayer" to support those who resisted the Qing Dynasty and saw the light again, but gave the protagonist to the slaves around the emperor. At the same time, he showed the genius of Emperor Kangxi through some side descriptions.
It can be seen that Jin Yong gradually opened up his own ideas like a hero in the process of creating martial arts novels. It is because of this kind of mind that we see great love, truth, goodness and beauty in his novels. This is the greatness of Mr. Jin Yong, who not only wrote martial arts, but also revealed human nature.
