About This Novel
Tonghua's beautiful and atmospheric love classic is the first in the "Book of Mountains and Seas" series. In ancient times, gods, humans, and monsters lived together between heaven and earth. After the death of Emperor Pangu, wars broke out frequently. After tens of thousands of years of changes, the wilderness gradually formed Shennong in the Central Plains, Gaoxin in the southeast, and Xuanyuan in the northwest. Three major divine tribes divided the world. The most eye-catching heroes in the world are Chichen, the god of war of the Shennong tribe, and Shaohao, the eldest son of the Gaoxin tribe. Chi Chen was originally a beast king who was subdued by King Shen Nong hundreds of years ago. He was cruel yet sincere, cunning yet innocent, with superior force and invincible. As fate would have it, he met Xuanyuanji, the queen of the Xuanyuan tribe who traveled around the wilderness under the pseudonym Xilingheng, and soon fell deeply in love with each other. The two agreed to meet under the peach blossom tree every April. However, as the princess of Xuanyuan, Aheng had no choice but to fulfill the engagement with Gao Xin's eldest son Shaohao and get married for the sake of Xuanyuan's interests. However, the two agreed to only be allies and not husband and wife. Chichen didn't know the inside story and was deeply hurt. During this period, there were also Qingyang, Zhongyi, Changpu, Yunsang, Nuonai, etc. None of them were supporting characters in the story. Every image was full and flesh-and-blood. They not only had personal love and hate for each other, but also the rise and fall of their family and country and the happiness of the people. It was destined that they could only make choices in their own destiny. However, once a promise is made, there will be no obstacles in the way of mountains and seas! Starting from next year, every April, I will wait for you under the peach blossom tree, see you there or not.

once promised
Just because of the promise made under the peach blossom that year, they were linked for a lifetime. This book narrates the stories of Xuanyuan Wang Ji Xuanyuan Concubine, Shennong Chichen and Gao Xin's eldest son Shaohao. With ancient times as the background and universal love, Tong Hua is worthy of being the Queen of Love. Her writing style is profound and she narrates the beautiful love story. Both the character creation and the conception are very clever. In fact, almost every character is very full, whether it is the story of King Shennong and his beloved wife in the previous generation, or the story of King Xuanyuan and his wife. The love-hate entanglement between Valerian Zu and the Tongyu family, and the teenage friendship between the Queen Mother, Shennong and Valerian Zu are all very vivid. The deaths of Yuxiang, Qingyang, Zhongyi, Changpu, Nuonai, Yunsang and others all touched people's hearts. It would be great if they were still Xilingheng and Chichen at that time, without having to bear so many burdens, and could just be a loving couple in their home in Baili Mountain for the rest of their lives. Shaohao is a very tragic person who is always restrained. He clearly understood that one day he and Qingyang would be opposites, but at the same time they were each other's confidants. When Qingyang died, I believed that at the moment when Qingyang was about to die, he really wanted to protect Qingyang and protect what Qingyang wanted to protect. However, in the end he still failed to do it.
Second brush
Maybe it's because I know the ending in advance in the second play, so it's even more heartbreaking to watch. Behind every laughter is a painful ending. Everyone's fate is intertwined and intertwined as if destined, and finally leads to destruction. If Ah Heng had never met Chi You, she wouldn't have become Xiling Heng. If Chi You hadn't fallen in love with Ah Heng, he wouldn't have been Chi You. Their love was as bright and decisive as moths flying into the flame. They fell in love with each other until they died. Qingyang and Shaohao seemed to be two people with completely different life experiences and personalities, but they were each other's only close friends. After Qingyang's death, there was no more Shaohao. The first time I watched it, I had no feelings for Shaohao. But the second time I watched it, I shed a lot of tears for him. I understood his helplessness, bitterness, and pain, and I also understood his feelings for Qingyang. Although I still didn't like it, I understood it. Each character in it tells a story individually. When Tong Hua puts their stories together, it becomes Zeng Promise. Once you make a promise, you must keep it! My white moonlight is always unhappy!
The peach blossoms shine brightly
After reading Sauvignon Blanc, I learned about its previous book - Zeng Xunuo in the book circle. Unlike the happy ending of Sauvignon Blanc, Zeng Xuuluo really made me cry my eyes out. Sitting in a noisy cafeteria with a lot of people, it seemed like I was from another world. Everything in his eyes seemed to be filled with scenes of Chi Chen hugging A Heng and peach blossoms flying all over the sky. The most beautiful and passionate emotion in the world is just like this.
The Peach Blossoms Are Burning--Comments on "Once Promised"
"Zeng Xunuo" is based on the classic classic "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and tells the unforgettable love story of Xiling Heng, the daughter of the Yellow Emperor, and Chi You in ancient times. The story takes place in the era of Emperor Xuanyuan in ancient times. In the story, the three kingdoms of Shennong, Xuanyuan and Gaoxin stand at the same level. In this special era, a touching love story takes place among the young people who frequently influence the situation among the three kingdoms. In turbulent times, love is often dominated by fame and wealth. The author Tong Hua uses his usual writing style from shallow to deep to unfold a magnificent picture of ancient love in front of readers. The promise between the male and female protagonists, this introduction is enough to be considered as a must-have for sadomasochism in this book. The promise is also the most heart-wrenching part of the book. In the book, Chiyou repeatedly doubted the heroine's love for him because of his beastly nature and did not keep the appointment. The heroine was hurt and wrote the words "If you can't keep the promise, why make the promise", which caused countless readers to cry. I have to say the exquisiteness of Tonghua's setting. Zeng Promise This book also deeply confirms the view that people will lose their freedom because of love. The heroine is the daughter of the Yellow Emperor. She has many options and cannot give up her beloved mother and brother. She is well aware of the bleakness of her father's feelings for her mother, and her mother and brother face many dangers within the palace. Therefore, she cannot abandon her relatives and be with Chi You without any scruples. This is why she and Chi You cannot be consummated. In the end, Chi You saved the heroine with a heart-for-heart, and he chose death. This setting of separation between yin and yang further enhanced the atmosphere of sadness. In the end, Chi You's body turned into a peach forest, and the depiction of peach blossoms flying in the sky made readers feel sad but not sad after reading this. Chi You's death is sad, but this scene makes us feel that Chi You did not leave A Heng, but turned into the peach blossoms of the two's love, so it is not sad. After the heroine was heartbroken and desperate, she wanted to follow Chi You underground. After seeing this scene, she determined to live for the sake of their daughter, Xiaoyao. (Tonghua Sauvignon Blanc tells the story of Chiyou Aheng's daughter Xiaoyao) In the last scene of the book, Ah Heng walks into the peach forest stroking the trunk of a peach blossom tree and gradually disappears. Only the scene of thousands of peach blossoms blooming in the sky, shining on the heaven and earth, is also the finishing touch. When we read this text, we can't help but feel that the scene is right in front of us, and we feel sorry for this ancient love.
This ending may be the best ending for them. The male protagonist exchanges his life for the female protagonist. They really can't have a happy ending. It's just a pity that the female protagonist no longer has a man who truly loves her, and Jiu Yao will never recognize her biological father.
Different stance, same love
I once watched it when I was in high school and was moved by it. I watched it again and was still very moved. Some people are worth it. Even if it means life, she/he is worth it. Whether it is Ah Heng or Chi You, they are all worthy of each other. Even if they are their own masters, so what. Love is love. We love each other, but it does not affect us fighting for our respective positions.
It's particularly good. I came here after seeing Sauvignon Blanc.

Zeng promised that I was really blinded by crying🙊
Love, family affection, friendship and a small family and a big country are really vividly written in this book and are endlessly memorable. When I was watching it, I knew that the male protagonist was based on Chi You, and I knew that the ending would be unhappy. I didn't expect it to be so tragic, especially when I watched Chi You and Ah Wei's daughter during the second episode of Lovesickness, I couldn't help it. It's really alas I feel that the books written by Tong Hua are very good.
The ending is really sad, everyone is almost dead
The ending is so sad, not many people died
