Why did Zhao Min finally win Zhang Wuji's heart?

Friends who have read Jin Yong's novel The Dragon Slayer know that in the novel, the protagonist Zhang Wuji has a complicated relationship with four women: Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao and Li Yin. Basically, it can be said that some of them have emotional entanglements with Zhang Wuji, but the final result is different. This makes me think about the reasons. Why do four equally beautiful women treat love so differently? Finally, among other reasons, I pointed the finger at their cultural background. It is their different cultural backgrounds that have a subtle influence on their views on love, and then make them make different choices in love.

First, we analyze Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo as a group.

As we all know, Zhao Min is the winner of the four men. She finally won Zhang Wuji's heart, and everything is fine with him. But Zhou Zhiruo is the biggest loser. Not only did he not get the love he wanted, but he even lost his mind in the end. This is pathetic!

Why is the difference so big?

As we know, it stands to reason that both Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo have known Zhang Wuji since childhood. In this respect, there is no difference between them, or Zhou Zhiruo still has certain advantages. Because Zhou Zhiruo was a gentle and polite girl from the beginning to a long time, she gave Zhang Wuji great comfort when she was in physical and mental pain, so Zhang Wuji had a good impression on Zhou Zhiruo from the beginning. Zhao Min, from the beginning, Zhao Min gave people the impression of being unruly and willful, and Zhang Wuji avoided Zhao Min for a long time. The reason why the two men finally reversed was that cultural differences made them make different decisions when faced with the same difficult choices, thus achieving different results.

As we know, Zhao Min is a Mongolian princess. She grew up on the Mongolian prairie, and she can ride a horse, shoot an arrow, and whip a horse. She has a stronger competitive spirit than boys. So in the eyes of ordinary people, she is headstrong and even unruly, because she doesn't care about ordinary people at all. She doesn't think they are as strong as themselves. It can be said that she looks down on them, and she has the pride of a woman. She met Zhang Wuji and Zhang Wuji didn't listen to her, which made her very angry. That's why she always finds fault with Zhang Wuji and opposes him. However, when she found that she had no advantage at all in a series of confrontations, she began to accept, admire and fall in love with Zhang Wuji, and pursued generously. It is precisely because of her grassland cultural background that she has a generous, frank and sincere character. Therefore, in the face of love and family fate, she will not hesitate to choose love and betray the motherland! In her mind, loving someone means loving and protecting him wholeheartedly and without impurities. It was such a sincere heart that moved Zhang Wuji and made him choose Zhao Min at last.

On the contrary, Zhou Zhiruo is not so simple about love. There are too many fetters in her heart, and the culture of China has left too many fetters in her character. The subtle traditions of the Han nationality make her afraid to admit frankly that she likes Zhang Wuji, and she is always secretive in front of outsiders. Of course, these will also make Zhang Wuji feel insecure. Moreover, the Han people have an orderly generation and big elders, which makes Zhou Zhiruo never dare to disobey the teacher's orders. So under the pressure of my master, I finally chose to accept Emei School and give up love. There is also the face-saving and excessive self-esteem of the Han people, which makes Zhou Zhiruo distorted his mind because of resentment after being left behind by Zhang Wuji at the wedding, thus embarking on the evil path of being despised. Imagine if Zhou Zhiruo also had Zhao Min's gentle, sincere and unswerving love, Zhang Wuji comforted her when she was weak, Zhang Wuji understood her when she was helpless, Zhang Wuji forgave her when she could not choose the harm she caused, and how did Zhang Can Wuji change her mind later? So there are too many impurities and selfishness in Zhou Zhiruo's love, and it is natural to lose Zhang Wuji's heart in the end.

Next, we will focus on Xiao Zhao and Li Yin.

Like Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao and Li Yin are also the contrast between ethnic minorities and Han nationality.

Xiao Zhao is a Persian sage, while Li Yin is a native Han nationality. If there is any difference between Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo, first of all, in Xiao Zhao and Li Yin, Xiao Zhao is gentle and kind, while Li Yin is defiant. Secondly, neither Xiao Zhao nor Li Yin ended up with Zhang Wuji, and their endings were not as tragic as Zhou Zhiruo's. Then what can be compared?

First of all, because their personality and cultural background are just the opposite to those of Zhao Min and Zhou Zhiruo, it shows to a great extent that Zhang Wuji's choice is not entirely based on personality and other things. Secondly, although in the end, Xiao Zhao and Li Yin can be regarded as Zhang Wuji's unforgettable good friends and both made self-sacrifice for Zhang Wuji, there are great differences between them.

Xiao Zhao is the daughter of Jinhua's mother-in-law. In order to finish the unfinished task of Jinhua's mother-in-law, she lurks in Zoroastrianism and works as a maid beside Zhang Wuji. Xiao Zhao, who should have finished the task, was deeply moved by Zhang Wuji's brave, fair, witty and clever qualities after experiencing many difficulties with Zhang Wuji, and fell in love with Zhang Wuji.

Like Zhao Min, Xiao Zhao's love is pure and complete, regardless of whether such love violates the mission of her mother and mother-in-law, Jinhua. Unlike Zhao Min, Zhao Min's love is like a dazzling fire. Everything he does seems to announce to the world that Zhao Min likes Zhang Wuji. But Xiao Zhao's love is more like a trickle, like a warm spring breeze. She has neither the strength of Zhao Min nor the pride of Zhou Zhiruo. Perhaps, she is the simplest, kindest and most beautiful girl among the four. I once thought that Xiao Zhao would probably be the last person with Zhang Wuji without the threat of the last Persian Zoroastrianism. However, whether in the story or in reality, there won't be so many ifs. So, in order to save Zhang Wuji, Xiao Zhao promised to return to Persia as a saint and gave up his love for Zhang Wuji. However, in my opinion, this kind of abandonment is just an external form of not being with Zhang Wuji forever. Xiao Zhao's love is in her heart, and her love will never be diminished by leaving Zhang Wuji. On the contrary, Xiao Zhao's abandonment just shows her deep and great love for Zhang Wuji!

Finally, talk about Li Yin.

In the end, Li Yin's withdrawal was entirely her own decision, and no one forced her. Then why did she do it?

Li Yin appears strong, perhaps because of his life experience. Li Yin, the daughter of King Yin Ye, resented her father's marrying a concubine, and killed her ErNian in a rage. And her mother committed suicide, so she ran away from home and later became Jinhua's mother-in-law's apprentice. She also met Zhang Wuji when she was very young. At that time, Zhang Wuji was a rebellious and brave teenager because his parents died and he was troubled by cold poison. This temperament is exactly the same as Li Yin's, so after being bitten by Zhang Wuji, she deeply remembered him. Later, she met Zhang Wuji, the founder of Zeng and Zoroastrianism. Although these three people are the same person, the latter two have lost the momentum and edge of the former, but they take care of Li Yin with a warm, kind and upright image, but it is this that makes Li Yin feel distant from Zhang Wuji when he grows up.

Perhaps many people will think that Li Yin is a little paranoid and surly. Of course, I don't deny that this is related to a person's natural personality, but the growth environment and family atmosphere have a great influence on it. In the Han nationality's patriarchal environment, my mother can't object to Yin taking a concubine, so although she doesn't want to, she is still miserable. However, Li Yin's personality does not allow her mother to be wronged, so she chose to kill concubines to express her dissatisfaction and indignation, and at the same time, her personality became more and more vicious and even a little distorted. Perhaps because she ran away from home at an early age and broke off relations with her father, she had a kind of father-loving complex psychologically. Zhang Wuji Jr.' s brave resistance to her made her feel her father's strength, so she fell in love with Zhang Wuji at an early age and finally gave up Zhang Wuji who lost her childhood spirit.

Through the different choices of Zhao Min, Zhou Zhiruo, Xiao Zhao and Li Yin in love, it shows that a person's cultural background will affect his view of love. Of course, the formation of love concept is also influenced by many factors, and this is just one of them.
