Why did Qian Zhongshu give up writing the novel Lily's Heart?

In our impression, a literary master like Qian Zhongshu should be equal in writing. However, when we look up the materials carefully, we find that Qian Zhongshu has only one novel. This novel is also a familiar work, Fortress Besieged. There is a French proverb, but the birdcage is not. There is also a saying in France under siege. People outside the city want to rush in, while people in the city want to escape. "It is cruel for ugly people to look carefully." These two sentences are classic sentences in Fortress Besieged, and most people are familiar with them. Not only that, but also the literary value of this work is very high. Known as "Neo-Confucianism", it is a unique satirical novel in the history of modern literature in China. There are three main reasons. Let's see.

First, after the publication of Fortress Besieged.

Qian Zhongshu has not been idle. 1948, Tan Publishing, 1958, Publishing, 1978, Research on Modern Classical Literature in China, 1979, Si Jiu Literature, Guan Zi Compilation, etc., but these are all academic works. Moreover, such works are hard and there is not much time to write novels.

Second, the Cultural Revolution.

During the Cultural Revolution, both Qian Zhongshu and Jiang Yang were regarded as "ghost snakes" and started their school life. As a full-time correspondent, Qian Zhongshu was criticized by the poster.

Jiang Yang cleaned toilets, planted vegetables and shaved his head. During this decade of Cultural Revolution, Qian Zhongshu's family suffered a lot, consuming spiritual strength and wasting time, which naturally became the reason why Qian Zhongshu didn't write his second novel.

Third, Qian Zhongshu is not good at writing novels.

Qian Zhongshu is a rigorous person, reading and writing, and studying hard. I don't like revising novels, and I'm not good at writing novels. The success of Fortress Besieged also benefited from the support of Jiang Yang at that time. Sleeve apron is very busy. Wash hands and make soup. You are worried about smoke and fire, and you are looking for a fairy to open a valley. This poem was also a gift from Qian Zhongshu to Jiang Yang, and he strongly supported him to write Fortress Besieged.
