Popular Novel

A vernacular novel about a well-known story from the era is rapidly gaining popularity among our subjects. This in itself is not a problem, but it has come to our attention that this novelization is in fact breaking central tenets of Confucian ideology as it could be seen as an argument for disobeying central authority and the our ruler.\nOur administrators now argue that the book must be banned, though some fear this will only make it more alluring to those that wish to read it.
