In the long volume of Chinese history, the replacement of dynasties is often accompanied by the reconstruction of historical writing. This kind of reconstruction has both the need for objective records and is inevitably mixed with political intent. Here are some aspects worth pondering： 1. **The shaping of the founding myth**: New dynasties often strengthen their legitimacy by deifying their founders. Such as Han Gaozu Liu Bang's "Uprising against the White Snake" and Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's "Hongguang Manmu" birth legend, they may have been processed artistically. 2. **The demonization of the last monarchs of the previous dynasty**: Records such as the "wine pool and meat forest" of the Shang Dynasty and the obscenity of the Sui Emperor may be exaggerated. Archaeological discoveries have shown that some rulers who have been described as tyrants have actually implemented beneficial reforms. 3. **Beautification of military victories**: The famous Battle of Feishui, the history books of the Eastern Jin Dynasty may have exaggerated the extent of the defeat of the former Qin army. Similarly, after Ming Chengzu seized the throne, the record of the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen was also vague. 4. **Re-narrative of ethnic relations**: After the establishment of minority regimes such as the Yuan and Qing Dynasties, the records of ethnic conflicts were often watered down, emphasizing the orthodoxy of "destiny". 5. **Traces of thought control**: The deletion and modification of the text when Qianlong compiled the Siku Quanshu, and the controversial record of Qin Shihuang's "Burning of Books" all reflect the reshaping of history under the unity of thought. It is worth noting that these historical reconstructions themselves have also become the object of historical research. Modern historiography is gradually restoring a historical picture closer to the truth through archaeological discoveries and comparison of historical materials from multiple parties. The complexity of historical records reminds us that when reading ancient historical materials, we need to maintain critical thinking and understand the context and position of the chroniclers of each era.
