The paper gets in touch with the main points by the way of inspecting the mutual influence between the novelists' notion about novels and the narrative operation, then tries to look for the inherent connection between them and comments on the influence to the creation. Full paper is divided into four sections. The first section starts with the discussion about "fabrication" and "authentic records" continuing for a long time and about the establishment of the view of value in the theory field of History Novels. The next explores the influence of times atmosphere to novels creation and the "miniaturization" of the narrative operation. The second section explains the creation of God-Evil Novels. Under the instruction of secular psychology, the subject of God-Evil Novels were getting the masses and the orientation aiming at amusing people changed from the existence side by side with moral education to leading position. Following with the above there came a discussion about "genuineness" and "illusion" in theory field. The theory of "illusion" is of the most importance in legends creation" came to the end of excessive unfamiliarity in the narrative operation. The third section comments on the creation of Court-Case Novels. The uncertainty about novels' ontology made Court-Case Novels decaying into compilation of law cases. The authors' legal consciousness was very dense.

Their creation brought about literature return of Court-Case Novels. The fourth section is about the creation of Human-Feelings Novels. Because of the influenceof the "love" ideological trend and the interest of people, the authors swayed between "love" and "lust". The intention of love had become very complicated. Some used ration to control love and others selected love against ration, which reflected bright times features. The deep discussion on the theory and the borrowing of the creative art of drama made the narrative operation of Human-Feelings Novels more mature than the other three kinds of novels.
