The Story of Water Margins (Modern Chinese)
Water Margins was one of the four famous novels in ancient China. It told the story of 108 Liangshan heroes who gathered together to rebel against the ruling class. Under the leadership of their leader, Lin Chong, the heroes of Liangshan attacked the city of Tokyo and forced Emperor Zhu Xu to surrender and establish the regime of Liangshan Lake. However, the Liangshan Lake regime was quickly defeated by the imperial court and the Liangshan heroes were forced to submit to the imperial court. Later, the Liangshan heroes were portrayed as a group of righteous people who resisted the rule and protected the people, but their actions were often suppressed and persecuted by the court. Some of the Liangshan heroes were arrested, imprisoned, and killed by the imperial court because of their political ambitions, which eventually led to the division and failure of the Liangshan heroes. Water margin has become a classic in the history of Chinese literature with its rich characters, vivid plots and profound thoughts.
