Fans of the Three Kingdoms period are furious, criticizing Wei Yu's new song for its clickbait title.

Upon seeing the latest chapter of Yu Wei's novel, netizens were stunned for a moment. Wasn't "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" receiving rave reviews? Where did this angry outburst come from?

When they opened the main text, they discovered that this was just something Yu Wei made up to advance the plot, and that the Three Kingdoms fan played the role of a minor villain in the novel.

True Three Kingdoms fans say their reputation has been harmed, that it's all fabricated, and that Yu Wei is doing this to smear their image by writing a novel.
Are they really that bad?
I didn't intend to rant, but now I have no choice but to...

While other singers hope for zero negative reviews for their work, Yu Wei, instead of being satisfied with the slow pace of netizens, took the lead in the attack and even made fun of himself on the spot.

The song "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is good, but it doesn't really have much to do with the Three Kingdoms period. From this perspective, it's not wrong to nitpick.

It can only be said that Yu Wei himself will create his own narrative, without needing netizens to stir things up.

There's clearly a reason why he didn't hesitate to criticize his own song. In the new chapter, facing the onslaught of "Three Kingdoms fans," the protagonist Wei Yu chose to perform an authentic Three Kingdoms song in song number four.

Dumpling vinegar is here. So Yu Wei wrote it this way on purpose to make the appearance of the next song seem more reasonable?

But there's no doubt he actually did it. This plot twist has piqued the curiosity of netizens who were just there for the amusement.

The song is called "Four Seasons," so how can it be related to the Three Kingdoms period?

The most excited among them are naturally the fans of the Three Kingdoms. They were originally fine, but Yu Wei dragged them into the battle, so they're going to have a good discussion about it.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has nothing to do with the Three Kingdoms period, so no one will criticize it. But this new song claims to be a Three Kingdoms work, so if it's not good, they'll really make a fuss.

Although Yu Wei's "Cao Cao" was popular last time, many fans of the Three Kingdoms were actually dissatisfied. The Cao Cao in that song was purely stereotypical and not at all "Three Kingdoms".

Since Yu Wei took the initiative to provoke them this time, they have no choice but to retaliate.

Trying to start a fight, huh? You just wait.

"It's really rare to see someone deliberately causing trouble for their own work."

Hou Chuchuan glanced at the countdown to the release of "The Four Seasons" and began to wait.

As a veteran original musician, he had met Yu Wei once at a music awards ceremony, so they could be considered acquaintances.

Yu Wei might not have a deep impression of him, but Zhang Lingye definitely remembers him vividly, after all, it was this guy who forced his embarrassing song on him...

Beyond the fear of death.

Although Hou Chuchuan paid some attention to Yu Wei, he hadn't originally planned to buy her album. He was actually drawn to her today by the "Three Kingdoms" theme.

He doesn't know if he's a fan of the Three Kingdoms, but he wrote the theme song for the TV series adaptation, so this period of history does have a special meaning for him.

As people get older, they lose their sense of time. He stood there in a daze for a while, and only when he came to his senses did he realize that the song had been unlocked.

"Let me have a taste."

As the prelude to "The Four Seasons" began, Hou Chuchuan was about to get up to pour himself a cup of tea, but he couldn't help but freeze in place.

The sound of the piano fell like raindrops, followed by the clear and cold strumming of the guzheng. A few simple notes sketched out a desolate scene that spanned a thousand years.

The melody wasn't bad, but for a song about history, the lyrics were what mattered most. Hou Chuchuan decided to wait a bit longer; he'd go pour tea again if the first line wasn't great.

"This cycle of four seasons is so long!"

It will take a hundred years to change.

When the female voice rang out, Hou Chuchuan was stunned for a moment. Everyone was guessing how to use the four seasons to describe the Three Kingdoms, but unexpectedly, the song made the answer clear from the very first line.

A cycle of chaos lasts a hundred years; from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, it was exactly four hundred years.

Using the changing of the four seasons to describe the changes in history is a perspective that no one expected. Compared to lyrics that force an "epic feel," this seemingly casual line has profound meaning.

The female singer's performance was also very charming. Her voice wasn't particularly striking, but rather rich and warm, carrying a narrative quality, as if she were telling stories that had long been lost to time.

"Lin Yuting... I've never heard of her."

Hou Chuchuan didn't pay much attention to the intricacies of the entertainment industry, simply assuming that Yu Wei had unearthed a promising talent from somewhere. However, other netizens listening to the song were genuinely astonished. Such a dramatic improvement! Lin Yuting used to be just a popular online singer, but now she had reached a higher level.

It wasn't until this moment that they realized Fishwell Studio might really be on the rise...

"Look at the many bewildering aspects of the human world."

Unable to escape the cold wind and rain

Only then did I realize that even though we were married...
The most precious thing is a harmonious atmosphere.

While other songs about the Three Kingdoms period focus on the clash of swords and the thunder of horses, this lyric reveals the eternal contradictions and struggles between people behind history.

Even if you form a marriage alliance, the hardest thing to maintain is "harmony".

As an original musician, Hou Chuchuan unusually refrained from analyzing the song's structure; he saw something deeper within the song.

When you're a child, you read "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to enjoy the excitement; when you're middle-aged, you read it to understand human relationships; and when you're old, you read it to contemplate fate.

There's a saying that young people shouldn't read *Water Margin*, and old people shouldn't read *Romance of the Three Kingdoms*, and that's the reason behind it.

This song seems to have such layers as well. Children listen to the melody, middle-aged people read the lyrics, and those who are half-dead listen to the unspoken things between the melody and the lyrics.

It's not that this song is particularly ingenious, but rather that it truly understands the Three Kingdoms period. It doesn't just stay on the surface of the people and events, but focuses on a deeper level.

We are all of the same origin
Why are you so anxious to fight each other?

Separation and reunion seek the greater good.

Always within this space, under this sky and on this earth.

What shook Hou Chuchuan the most was the change in the chorus.

The first time "We are all of the same origin" was sung as "Why are we so eager to harm each other?", but the second time it turned into "Only love is without deceit".

This subtle shift almost made him hold his breath. Yu Wei did not dwell on the sighs of the struggle, but found a transcendent answer in the cycle of reincarnation.

The last line lingers in the air.

Hou Chuchuan was surprised by his strong reaction; such a simple song had struck him directly.

This song, while not explicitly mentioning the Three Kingdoms period, is inextricably linked to it in every line.

He suddenly understood that "The Four Seasons" does not sing about specific people and stories, but rather looks down on this history from a higher perspective.

It never sings about the Three Kingdoms period, but about all of the "Three Kingdoms".

It is the coming together and parting of people in every era, the moral struggle behind every choice, and humanity's eternal pursuit of peace and understanding throughout the long course of time.

This perspective made him feel ashamed. Hou Chuchuan remained silent for a moment, and finally posted a message: History is not the background, but the voice itself.

In terms of production and quality alone, this song is only average among works from the Three Kingdoms period, but its concept and meaning are absolutely commendable.

Yu Wei's gamble paid off. Fans of the Three Kingdoms period adore this song. Compared to the stories of heroes fighting and killing, the regret, hope, and romance are what make them love this period of history.

History is full of tragic events like the Three Kingdoms period, but in the end, everything comes back to the same conclusion.

History buffs are actually quite picky. They're generally not satisfied with popular TV shows and movies, and there are plenty of self-proclaimed experts and skeptics. The comment sections of historical articles are simply unbearable to read.

Their attitudes basically represent the value of historical works. Seeing how highly these people praised Yu Wei's new song, everyone was truly stunned.

Others might boast until their boasts fall apart, but Yu Wei's boasts are truly convincing. Even when he deliberately stirs up trouble, he always manages to land things smoothly in the end, which is something no one else can do.

They wanted to see how Yu Wei would play the next song, "Five Hundred Miles."

Although they couldn't understand why Yu Wei used miles, as this unit of measurement is rarely used in China.

Could this be some kind of hint? (End of Chapter)
