《莺莺传》和《霍小玉传》都是中唐传奇的佳作,是少有的与城市舆论有关的故事,而且因为舆论的参与,促成了这两篇传奇的发展以及在意义上的延伸。中唐长安的城市舆论对两场轰动京城的爱情的反应,在其过程中呈现出接受和颠覆的两种状态,表现出时代性的“逐情”观念。从两篇传奇在城市舆论中复杂的状态入手,可以解析中唐社会中复杂的情感道德倾向。
The Biography of Yingying and The Biography of Huo Xiaoyu are both excellent works of chuanqi(传奇, tales of the marvelous)in the Mid-Tang Period.

Through observing people’s attitude to these tales, we can examine the complicated social mentality about love and morality in the Mid-Tang Period
