the style of

Shi Shuo by Han Yu

"Shuo" is a style used in ancient times to explain things by narrative, discussion or explanation. You can not only make comments, but also take notes, all in order to show the author's views and explain the truth of lodging.

On the Preface of Essays: "The speaker explains the meaning and explains it in his own mind." The language of "Shuo" is usually concise and profound; The writing is flexible, which is generally similar to modern essays. Usually, we adopt the method of seeing the big picture from the small, and explain things by telling fables and describing things. This is what we call "the meaning of supporting things".

"Shuo" means "Talk", for example, "Ma Shuo" can be literally interpreted as "Talking about the problem of a swift horse"

The stories of Ailian, Ma Shuo, Snake Catcher, Teacher Shuo and Huang Sheng's Borrowing Books belong to this genre.
