Looking for an Elegant Historical Chinese Romance Without Outlandish, Over-the-Top, or Brain-Dead Tropes
I want something with elegant, delicate writing. Not the kind that opens with someone getting disfigured or having their heart cut out. That's too melodramatic and clumsy. And no side characters like concubine-born daughters or female antagonists publicly attacking the heroine at banquets. People like that wouldn't survive three hours in ancient times unless they were faking their deaths. It's so unrealistic.

Maybe I've read too many books, because I can't get into a lot of them and drop them after about three chapters. If I can finish one and enjoy it, it's definitely a gem worth sharing!

Are There No More Books With Writing as Good as Yan Sanhe's?
I'm looking for books like *The Xie Family's Short-Lived Ghost Has Lived to a Hundred*. I've read all over the place, male-oriented and female-oriented fiction alike: palace intrigue, rebirth, cultivation, horror, comedy, CEO romances, detective stories, ghost hunting, the mortal and spirit realms, gods, golden fingers, you name it. I'm not into books that only obsess over romantic relationships. I love stories with a grand scope.

10 Points is enough, the writing is really good. For me, who has been reading books and watching TV for many years, this book is really good. Among all the historical novels I have read, it can be said to be the best book in all aspects. The score is really a bit low. This is a novel with a heroine, and I really like the heroine. The author painted the heroine very lifelike. It tells the story of the prosperity and progress of the aristocratic family. The elders take care of the younger ones. The emotions between sisters and brothers are well described in all aspects. The author did not pursue the ultimate perfection, but achieved the perfection in my heart. There are many tearful scenes in the article, and the author's descriptions can really connect the readers' heartstrings. The most successful thing about this book is the portrayal of the heroine Xu Xiyan. But at the same time, I also like his mother, father, third sister, etc. Very much. In short, this book is perfect in terms of emotional grasp and plot development. This book really made me understand that the moon waxes and wanes, and the water overflows when it is full. Imperfect perfection is not a better perfection!
As a senior book lover who is nearly 50 years old, I recommend reading it. The author's writing style is good, and his three views are correct. He has feelings about his family and country, national righteousness, but also the shortcomings of his parents, blood and family ties, and a complete story. It is a masterpiece.
Reading is a matter of benevolence and wisdom. I have also read book reviews. Many people think it is not as good as Xi Huazhi. Personally, I think it has two levels of content. This book feels like a miniature version of Dream of Red Mansions. The heroine has a broad vision and a very unique vision! It describes the story of a little girl who single-handedly helped multiple families under the feudal centralized system. There is not much description of love, family and friendship. Instead, it focuses on family interests and the survival of the country, and writes about the reality and cruelty in feudal society. In the middle of the issue, Moisturizer quietly inserted some time-travel content, but the traces are very shallow. It is not the usual mindless novel that is exaggerated and unreal. This is a more realistic and true story. The plot is not exaggerated, not artificial, not exaggerated, not pretentious. Many people think it is not good, but based on the background of the book, I think it is very real.
This is another good book after "Cherishing Flowers and Chi". The plot is interlocking, comprehensive and logical. I followed it for two days in a row and read about two or three o'clock every night. I refused to skip a chapter for fear that it would not connect. After reading the book for so long, I can't say that there are no good books. I can only say that the two books that have left the most profound impression so far [Like] [Like]
A rare good book recently, I read it in one sitting. The writing is smooth, the plot is natural and vivid, there are many characters, but they are not cluttered, there are many foreshadowings and they can fill in the holes, it shows that the author is awesome👍! The heroine has a big personality, a strong sense of justice, and quick-witted methods. Regardless of national affairs, trivial matters in life, or troubled relatives, she can easily handle them all at her fingertips! In a small way, he guided his relatives and friends around him to become better and better. In a big way, he even guided national events, making several states and even the entire country better and better. There are many characters, but each one has his own characteristics. The aunt in the house, the opera singer and even the old farmer on the roadside all have their own shining points. The author is very good at portraying characters! Good book, worth recommending!
I really want to speak out personally. This book is really good. I wanted to read it many times when I was in a book shortage, but I was discouraged by the messy reviews. This time, there was finally nothing to see, and then it got out of hand~ It was well written and very contagious. You don't have to be picky! It's hard to reconcile everyone's opinions, and there will always be people who see things that don't go their way, but this book is definitely full of flaws!
This is a more touching book that I read after Xi Huazhi. The author has good writing skills and the words are very comfortable to read. When I first started to read the relationship between the characters, I felt a bit like watching Red Mansions, but it was not easy to slowly understand it. As a modern person, I don't understand the heroine's defense of her concubines and siblings at first, but this is in line with the concept of a big family in ancient times. After all, she is a native of ancient times and did not travel through time. On the contrary, Bai Qiuyue, a time traveler, does as the locals do, and it feels like her time travel setting is dispensable. Entire article. The female protagonists are all in charge of their careers, accompanying the male protagonists in their careers, and helping their families and friends in their careers. Fortunately, there are no green tea and white lotus people to cause trouble, so there is no sadistic plot. There is not much affection between children. Overall, it is a very comfortable article to read.
When I first read the name, I didn't want to read it. Once I clicked in, I couldn't get out. The heroine is very beautiful, with a beautiful heart and beautiful appearance. The main reason is that her IQ is very high. It made me see that in addition to time travel and rebirth, the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated. Including the other people in it, they basically all have brains, which is pretty good. I stayed up several nights to read this novel. It was really not easy. The author's thinking is very novel. I must give it a thumbs up.
This is a rare good book from Tomato. There are not so many boring palace fights and house fights, and the love between men and women is written in a natural and smooth way without any violation. The male and female protagonists in the book have upright views, are decisive in doing things, are kind-hearted, have great ambitions, have a family, a country, and a love for their children! The plot of the story is very reasonable, the author's writing is vivid, the language is humorous, he has certain literary skills, and the content echoes back and forth. Basically, the holes dug in the front are filled in in the back! This book, like "Xi Huazhi", is very beautiful! Recommended for everyone to read! The only fly in the ointment is that the cute and sensible third sister Yun Jin died in the war. I really cried to death!
After watching it, I couldn't remember the relationship between the characters at first. It's normal. The characters come from a wealthy family. Each character has his or her own ending, and the pits must be filled. The family background and character, and the full description of the minor characters are particularly good. You must read it. There are everyone's statistical notes in the character relationship comments. I suggest you go smoothly. I wrote notes in the early stage, including the characters' names, family, and marriage, and summarized them all. It was very smooth to read.
