Luo Guanzhong (about 1330—— about 1400), a famous book with words in the middle, was a novelist in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty and the author of the popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He is a native of Taiyuan Prefecture in Bingzhou, Shanxi Province. His other major works are novels: Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties, Romance of Tang and Five Dynasties, Biography of Three Demons in Suiping and Water Margin. Romance of the Three Kingdoms (hereinafter referred to as Romance of the Three Kingdoms) is Luo Guanzhong's representative work, which has a profound influence on later literary creation. In addition to novel creation, there is also a drama "Song Taizu Dragon and Tiger Club".

Literary features:

Luo Guanzhong is known as the originator of China Zhang Hui's novels. His novels in Zhang Hui are characterized by chapters and titles. Each story is relatively independent, with neat paragraphs, but connected from beginning to end to form a unified whole. And it has been divided into volumes and titles, and the content is also very particular.

Today, I saw the earliest block-printed "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" by Jiajing Renwu (1522), each with a single sentence and seven words. The title of Water Margin, which he and Shi Naian co-wrote, is two sentences every time, which is roughly dual. In addition to chapters, his Zhang Hui novels still retain the system of opening poems and ending poems in the Song and Yuan plays.

The text often begins with the word "talking about China" and ends at the critical moment when the plot unfolds. I use the phrase "I want to know what will happen next time", and quote poems and songs in the middle to describe the scene or praise the characters.
