Of the three great love legends of the Tang Dynasty, why was only one widely circulated? Was it because of the ending?
The three great love legends of the Tang Dynasty were Song of Everlasting Sorrow, Song of Pipa, and Legend of the White Snake. Although these three works all tell the love story of the Tang Dynasty, their endings are slightly different. The ending of Song of Everlasting Sorrow was a tragedy. It described the love story between Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei. However, in the end, Yang Guifei was deposed. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was poisoned and died. The entire Tang Dynasty fell into chaos. Although the ending of Song of Everlasting Sorrow was very sad, it was also one of the most popular novels in the Tang Dynasty because it described a beautiful Tang Dynasty but also reflected the injustice of society and the darkness of human nature at that time. " Song of the Pipa " used Bai Juyi as the main character to tell the story of a pipa girl he met when he was demoted to Jiangzhou Sima. Although Bai Juyi and the pipa girl had some emotional entanglements, the pipa girl eventually left Bai Juyi for various reasons. Although Song of the Pipa had a sad ending, it also reflected the reality of Tang society and the complexity of human nature. In contrast, the ending of the Legend of the White Snake was more satisfactory, describing the love story between the White Lady and Xu Xian. Although Bai Niangzi and Xu Xian had experienced many difficulties and tribulations, they still lived a happy life together in the end. Although the ending of the Legend of the White Snake was relatively satisfactory, it also reflected the values and expectations of love in Tang society. The reason why only Song of Everlasting Sorrow was widely circulated was that its tragic ending could arouse people's resonance and emotional investment, and also because it described a beautiful Tang Dynasty that made people feel gratified. Although the other two works were also very popular, their endings were relatively dull and difficult to resonate with people.
