Xiaotao's story begins on a sunny day in the south of the Yangtze River.
That day, at Anping Ferry, spring and scenery were bright,
On her boat, two men were ferried.
His white clothes are as gentle as snow, and his black clothes are as sharp as ink.
Her eyes, filled with frosty white, became the splendor of the world.
From the ferry girl, to the maid, to the dancer, to the peach girl who is famous in Jinling...
Wherever he is, there she goes.
She didn't care what she did, as long as she could get closer to him, closer.
What he repaid her with was thousands of sharp arrows that pierced her heart.
She finally knew that besides being gentle, he also had a plan.
And she was just a chess piece.
She gave up her blood and her life in exchange for his peace for the rest of his life.
What he gave her in return was the fate of the whole family being overthrown and thrown into the classroom.
She finally knew that besides being gentle, he was also cold.
And she is just a piece of grass.
He said: I don't like you.
She smiled: It's enough that I like you.
Time and again he looked up humbly, and time and time again he flew into the flames. Did his heart ever hurt?
In the turbulent times, he was missing and she was delirious. He, dressed in ink, put on a white robe and made love...
Reader comments
When I first read it, I thought Zhao Tingyi was the second male lead and Qi Zhengxiu was the first male lead. I felt that Zhao Tingyi was not worth it. Qi Zhengxiu calculated every step of the way, and everyone was in his calculations. He felt that Xiao Tao's sincerity and love were given to the wrong person. He knew Xiao Tao's thoughts when he first met her, and also knew Zhao Tingyi's thoughts about Xiao Tao. Qi Zhengxiu devoted his life to national affairs and let down the woman who devoted her whole life to him. Later, Xiao Tao didn't like him, but he still did a lot of things for Xiao Tao, which was hard to forgive. As for Zhao Tingyi, he is also a big pig's hooves. There are obviously many misunderstandings. A good question and a good answer are enough. When they love each other, they lack trust, which leads to the two missing a lot of beautiful time. Zhao Tingyi is the one who loves Xiao Tao miserably. He killed He Yitang, killed Hua Rui, tattooed Fu Xuechan, painted erotic pictures for Xiao Zhouhou, and earned enough tears...
I cried, but Qi Zhengxiu is so miserable. Zhao Guangyi has so many wives and children, and Qi Zhengxiu has nothing. It would be great if the child Xiao Tao gave birth to was Qi Zhengxiu's. Anyway, Zhao Guangyi's other wives also gave birth to so many children for him.
The persistent Bai Yi in her heart gradually faded away, and she moved in with a person she recognized as a mistake, and had a lifelong love. The first half of her life was ignorant, the second half of her life was for the country, and at the last moment of her life, she gave up herself so that the person she loved could live, because no one in the world was worthy of him. She put down her burden and left forever.
He could have lived, but because of the slightest guilt for his family and country, he died in the water. She was worthy of everyone, and she truly failed the one who loved her most. They didn't have many happy moments, and the happiest time was when she was crazy and stupid; the night when Zhao Guangyi knew that she was still alive was also happy, but it was short-lived; after she delivered the news for the country, in order to make up for her guilt for him, at least Zhao Guangyi was happy during that time.
I still like the name Zhao Kuangyi, because after they met, this was the name that Zhao Kuangyi used without hesitation to give up fame and power, and he had the happiest time. Zhao Guangyi was helpless. She asked several times if she could go back to the village for nothing, but he refused. She never called him Zhao Guangyi, only Tingyi, and she also liked the name Taoyi best!
Qi Zhengxiu loves Xiao Tao rationally, and whenever there is a conflict between Xiao Tao's life and death and the safety of his family and country, Qi always chooses to give up on Xiao Tao; while Zhao Guangyi loves Xiao Tao so much that he goes to find Xiao Tao many times regardless of the consequences. He even reluctantly plays Mr. Qi to comfort Xiao Tao when Xiao Tao is crazy, and cures Xiao Tao's illness. He even gave up his position at one point to stay with Xiao Tao. This is when Xiao Tao returned to the Tang Dynasty after encountering various misfortunes in the Song Dynasty, only to realize that she no longer loved Mr. Qi, and that Zhao Guangyi was her unforgettable lover. Mr. Qi sacrificed everything for his family and country, including Xiao Tao. Mr. Zhao took over the world for Xiao Tao. Xiao Tao sacrificed himself for Mr. Zhao and his country! After reading the full text, I just sighed: I can't talk about the entanglement of love and hate in this story!
I like it very much. I have been short of books for a while. I became addicted to this book as soon as I read it. Nowadays, many novels have the same beginning and childish content, which makes people unable to read. But this one makes me want to read it day and night, and I want to finish it in one sitting.
I finished reading this book with a heavy sense of depression and a shock from the depths of my soul. The fate of the characters in the article is ups and downs, exciting, and tragic!
Because of my studies, I delayed reading it for a long time. Perhaps, many people would be incomparably compatible if they met at another time. Why is it like this? Life is always changing, and no one can predict the future. Just make yourself comfortable and follow your own will on everything. There is no need to force yourself in many cases, just follow your inner thoughts, appreciate life, and get along with people who are not tired. Even if we meet at the wrong time, we must ensure that we have no regrets. I envy the love in books, which is either pure or not affectionate. It is not like the feelings in life. It takes away the purpose and lacks specificity. Love worthy people, live the best youth, work hard, live out the color, and make life valuable (2021.5.9)
This novel made me upset. Xiao Tao's experience was really uncomfortable. Her life was manipulated like a doll. She had no self and was helpless. It was really sad.
Born for love, friendship lasts forever. The coolness of peach blossoms blows my eyes, how can my family and country give gifts to beautiful women? When one is humble and sentimental, one's destiny is so difficult to understand! The moon-white robe could not withstand the deep love, and Qi Zhengxiu finally regretted it, regretting that he had not been able to catch Xiao Tao and love her back. Tingyi Tingyi means peach is suitable, room is suitable and home is suitable...
Entering the family temple, Zhao Heng accurately found Zhao Guangyi's tablet, stood quietly in front of it, stroked the dust on it with his hand, and asked softly: "Dad, you once said that with power in your hands, you can protect your sincerity. Now that your son has power in his hands, why can he never find the sincerity that you and your mother had before?" Wei Chen was silent.
Can the author write about the love between Qi Zhengxiu and Xiao Tao in the peaceful and prosperous age?
It's really difficult to calm down. A man like Qi Zhengxiu should not have so many difficult choices in the peaceful and prosperous age. Sometimes I really feel sorry for him. A country is in danger, an incompetent monarch, and a heroine who needs him to worry about everything. He is really too tired.
If he were in peace and prosperity, he would probably be an excellent husband.
The ending is so sad. Xiao Tao, Zheng Xiu, and Ting Yi are entangled in the justice of the country and the love of their children. What kind of choice is right? It is only a small raft in the stream that year that has already played with the fate of the three of them, creating a lifetime of separation of love, resentment, and failure. . . . .
Finally finished reading. Very nice. Much better than the mess I saw before. Not completely empty. The writing is also very good. Not too abrupt. There are various opinions in the middle that are difficult to reconcile. It's so worrying from behind. The heroine is really miserable. But there are also situations where if you don't say a word clearly, you will be misunderstood for a lifetime. But overall it's really wonderful. I couldn't help but keep watching. Qi Zhengxiu and Zhao Kuangyi. It's really hard to choose. But after all, Zhao Guangyi can always be by the heroine's side. . I was still a little worried after reading it. .
This book is really well written, and it completely follows the emotions in the book.
: A very meaningful book, the legendary life of a little woman is very inspiring!
Xiao Tao loved Qi Zhengxiu humbly, but when Zhao Guangyi risked his life for her, she loved him miserably! It's sad to see!
The plot has ups and downs and is fascinating. Qi Zhengxiu was worthy of everyone, worthy of the country, worthy of the people, worthy of the king, but he only failed Xiao Tao. Maybe he was more selfish at the critical moment, and maybe Xiao Tao would not have died. Only then did she realize that she loved Ting Yi (it was difficult for her to always choose between her lover and the country. Even if she had to hand over the defense map, she still chose the country in the end. She saved Ting Yi but chose to use her body to block the water outlet to protect the safety of the people.) Ting Yi, who knew the news of Xiao Tao's death, felt as if the world had lost its color. He wanted to be with Xiao Tao but he couldn't. He had to live for their children. Before Ting Yi died, he said something like "I have survived for so long" (he burst into tears). Death was a relief for him. He was far away from the disputes in the world and the intrigues in the court. He could finally see Xiao Tao and be with her.
An extremely well written article. There are facts, plots, and historical figures. The more I read, the more I wanted to see it, but the ending was unbearable. It started with Xiao Tao's marriage, and then narrated it from the beginning. It went around for half a life, and then ended with the marriage. Only then did I suddenly realize that this was what happened. This is the first time I read an online article and wrote my thoughts after reading it, because I couldn't calm down for a long time. Tragedy is deeply memorable. How can real life not be a tragedy in scenes? I just regret that without the author's good writing style, I can't express it.
It's very interesting and sad, the author's writing is very good, it's very enjoyable to read, the historical background is not fictional, it's a wonderful read~
At first I felt that Qi Zhengxiu was not worthy of Xiao Tao's sincerity, but in the end I was moved by his water-like sincerity that left no trace. Just like him, he is as gentle as jade.
Well, Zhao Guangyi's blatant love is what many girls hope for. Every time I see him, I feel sad for him. Why does he have to suffer so much? Xiao Tao is not worth it... (I can't understand his love for Xiao Tao, so passionate and unreserved, like a ball of fire, constantly burning)
In the end, Xiao Tao is very entangled throughout the book. Her thoughts and her actions always make people think of the four words "God's will tricks people". At the end, I found that Xiao Tao is just an ordinary woman who loves her children, lover, friends, and country. I don't want her behavior to escalate to the level of family and country feelings,,,,
It's so exciting. I've already imagined various scenes from the novel. I feel like it could be made into a movie or TV series.
Very exciting and touching!
Wonderful, it made me cry
The article is wonderful and touching.
I felt that this book was sadistic and depressing.
Xiao Tao has a true and pure character but cannot learn to trust Zhao Kuangyi, and she will miss all the bad things in her life. Zhao Kuangyi's love for Xiao Tao from beginning to end moved me
I burst into tears while watching this and am looking forward to the author's next work!
After reading it, I don't know what to say. Qi Zhengxiu put his family and country first, and lived and died with the Tang Dynasty. Zhao Guangyi finally got together with Xiao Tao, and both male protagonists were kind-hearted. Xiao Tao's vacillation between the two male protagonists is very annoying. In the end, she died in order to save Zhao and save the people of Tang Dynasty, which can be regarded as "living up to the family and the country".
The writing is like water flowing slowly from a stream, neither urgent nor slow, very good
I have always liked the author, every one of his works is great.
One moment I feel sorry for Qi Zhengxiu, and then I feel sorry for Zhao Kuangyi, but there is only one Xiaotao. From being a country girl to ending up being hurt by the love of two outstanding men, and having the king of the country feel heartbroken and admired, it still feels incredible that she is not even remotely matched. 21.8.30 Finally, I really enjoyed reading this book!
