Summary "粉妝樓" by Guanzhong Luo is a historical novel likely written during the late 19th century. The story is set in the Tang Dynasty and centers around the protagonist, a nobleman named 罗增 (Luo Zeng), who is a well-respected and upright military figure. The narrative unfolds as Luo Zeng prepares to leave his family to face the dangers of war, intertwining themes of loyalty, familial duty, and the complexities of relationships amid political strife. The opening of "粉妝樓" introduces readers to Luo Zeng, who is dispatched to the border to quell a rebellion. As he departs, he expresses concern for his two sons, 罗燦 (Luo Can) and 罗琨 (Luo Kun), who are both young and vigorous but also prone to rash behavior. Despite their mother's reassurances, Luo Zeng worries about their safety in his absence. Following his departure, the brothers are tempted to break free from their constrained lives and go out to explore their surroundings, leading them on a path toward adventure. The narrative teeters between familial obligations and the allure of personal freedoms, setting the stage for conflict and character development. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
