On the Internet, wild history has always been able to refresh my three views.
Netizens frantically attacked Yeshi in the attitude of not thinking of a big deal to see the excitement.
Similar to "Su Shi gave birth to children for Zhang Huaimin", it didn't even make the list.
If you put it until now, you are making yellow rumors, just arranging the yellow rumors of the ancients, and the ancients couldn't climb out of the coffin and have a mouth to say. Overnight, it's all this kind of "hook literature", and I can't help but ask, how is this so cool?
"Hook literature", what kind of ghost is it?
In 4202, netizens have evolved from watching wild history to "writing wild history".
searched for Zhu Yuanzhang's three words on the Internet, and the relevant entry that appeared turned out to be "Zhu Yuanzhang sells hooks".
In fact, this stalk first originated from a Q&A on Zhihu, where netizens asked "Why did Zhu Yuanzhang keep the history of being a beggar", so someone gave a reply below:
Because the content of the reply was too explosive, this statement quickly became popular on the Internet.
Almost every historical celebrity cannot escape the fate of being arranged by netizens.
If it weren't for the fact that the ancient people couldn't come out to respond, these netizens would have received summons a long time ago......
Substitute for these historical parties, I want to jump out and slap him twice.
Isn't this just a rumor??
This can't be called wild history at all, but the ignorance of netizens themselves. To denigrate history with a self-righteous professional research.
They humiliated all the princes and generals in history, and lightly ridiculed the seriousness and grandeur of history into rectum.

Most of the wild histories seem ridiculous to catch horses, but the word "wild" in the wild history is not wild wild, but a statement relative to the official history.
If the official history is "in the dynasty", then the wild history is "in the field".
The so-called official history generally refers to the 24 histories that we are familiar with, that is, the 24 historical books including the "Historical Records" and the "Book of Han".
They record important events in the imperial court from the period of the Yellow Emperor to the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty.

Other stories are actually wild histories.
These include not only the "great water" and various market rumors and small talk books that focus on catching horses, but also some letters written by the literati ministers of the time, epitaphs and other literary works.
This kind of "hook literature" is very boring, netizens have not seen it with their own eyes, and there is no actual evidence, it is purely self-entertaining and obscene.
So, how outrageous and ridiculous can wild history be?
How outrageous can the wild history of historical celebrities be?
I believe that everyone has heard some of the wild history of catching horses.
For example, it is rumored that the poet Meng Haoran died because of Wang Changling?
It is said that Meng Haoran was seriously ill and couldn't eat too oily heavy food, so Wang Changling came to visit the patient, and the two ate a meal of big fish and meat on a whim, which caused Meng Haoran's condition to deteriorate until he died.

Even some of the characters in the fictional story have their own wild histories.
It is said that Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai actually did not know each other, and neither was a contemporary.
Zhu Yingtai died hundreds of years earlier than Liang Shanbo, and when people buried Liang Shanbo, they accidentally dug Zhu Yingtai's pit, so they coincidentally buried the two together, and made up a story of martyrdom.

And don't think that wild history is only prevalent in ancient times, in fact, there are also various very "wild" wild history stories in modern times.
For example, some people say that during the Opium War, Emperor Daoguang wanted to include the Queen of England in the harem, and he also disliked her for being a second marriage??
Most of the above wild histories do not have real historical materials to examine, but there are also some wild historical materials that have not been recorded in the official history and have very credible sources.

Taking Li Bai's death as an example, everyone should have heard many different versions of Li Bai's cause of death, some people say that he fell into the river and drowned, some say that he died of illness, and some even say that he died of drinking.
But in these wild histories, there are also historical materials in written form, and Li Bai's uncle once explained in his notebook "Preface to the Caotang Collection" that Li Bai died of illness.
Since it is a wild history, it is impossible to investigate whether it is apocryphal, but as the family of the person concerned, although it is a wild history, it is also considered by more historians to be true and reliable.
Therefore, wild histories are not necessarily "wild" to the point of absurd jokes, and even some wild histories will be referred to when revising the official history in ancient times.
When Sima Guang introduced "Zizhi Tongjian", he said that his writing was "reading through old history and picking novels on the side".
So what exactly is the essence of wild histories, and are they really believable?
Creating ancient people's yellow rumors, addicted?
Although there are indeed many articles with historical value, in general, most of the wild history is just a kind of "re-creation" of historical figures.
The ability of the ancients to compile wild history is so strong that many people can believe it to be true.

For example, Feng Menglong, known as the "first homo saint of the Ming Dynasty", is a lover of wild history compilation (yes, Feng Menglong, the author of the famous "Three Words and Two Beats").
There are many wild histories from him, such as Su Shi's little sister with a long face was made up by him, and the private relationship between Cao Zhi and his sister-in-law Zhen Ji was also due to him.
There are also various historical celebrities such as Song Huizong, Liu Yong, Wang Anshi, etc., who have not escaped his compilation, and the stories of Li Bai and Du Fu have even been compiled under Feng Menglong's pen as a living drama.
This kind of short story of historical celebrities similar to the contemporary "homo humanities" writing method was definitely not only Feng Menglong who was keen on it in ancient times, and there were many stories, and it was inevitable that some people in later generations would believe it, and Yeshi was born.

In addition to writing "fandom" with the names and backgrounds of celebrities, Yeshi has also "created" some characters.
For example, Song Ci, the author of the Song Dynasty forensic science work "Clearing Grievances", is not recorded in the official history, and it all relies on an epitaph that is regarded as a wild history to prove the existence of this person.
It is precisely because of the uncertainty of wild history that Song Ci and his wonderful and exciting story of "Clearing Grievances" seem confusing, so many people in later generations like to use Song Ci's story to adapt it into novels and film and television dramas.
In fact, the essence of wild history is a kind of speculation and rumors of the ancients about the secret history of the palace and the gossip of celebrities.
The mode of transmission is also word of mouth, or in the form of a narrow cult novel.
Therefore, the ancients were not as rigid and serious as we thought, they would also indulge in these gossip "homo humanities", and they would also make their own stalks and produce food.
In the face of this outrageous wild history, we should also have an attitude of banter and entertainment, it's okay to be a joke, don't take it seriously.
