About This Novel
Beauty in Troubled Times: The Misty and Rain of the Southern Tang Dynasty records the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and the war continues. A woman struggles to survive in the troubled times, but is accidentally involved in the torrent of dynasty change... In the second year of Liang Qianhua's reign (912), the city of Bianliang flowed with blood. Zhu Wen was seriously ill, his disciples seized the throne, and the powerful minister Han Yanhui was executed. Seventeen-year-old Han Weiyu escaped from Bianliang under the escort of Lu Ming at home, but was seriously injured and fell into the water when he was chased by soldiers on the way. The Southern Wu general Xu Zhigao (Li Min) rescued the dying girl during the Northern Expedition. She concealed her identity and claimed to be the daughter of a merchant. However, she was appreciated by Xu Zhigao for her outstanding talent and learning, and served as a clerk in the army. In the troubled times, she witnessed the displacement of the people and the overthrow of the dynasty, while Xu Zhigao had great ambitions and wanted to revive the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The two knew each other and cherished each other amidst the intrigues and wars, but they had to be separated again and again because of their identities and political games. From Bianliang to Guangling, from Shengzhou to Jinling, Han Weiyu experienced the breakdown of his family and country, the entanglement of love and hate, and finally grew from an exiled orphan to a key figure who influenced the founding of the Southern Tang Dynasty. However, when Xu Zhigao ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, she no longer faced the confidant of the past, but the king who weighed the pros and cons... **◆A beauty in troubled times, seeking a country and making a living** She could have gone with the flow, but chose to use her intelligence to deal with the heroes and win a place for herself in the patriarchal world. **"This world is, after all, a battlefield for men. But I want them to know that women can also play chess and have no regrets." - Han Weiyu**** "If we have strong mountains and rivers, we will live up to your heart and live this life." - Li Min (Xu Zhigao)**
