Lately I’ve been looking for an ancient-era romance with realistic, detailed descriptions of everyday life, but it’s so hard to find. I don’t need some grand epic. I just want to read about the daily lives of women in ancient times.

I gave up the drama to read a book. I was full of expectations after reading the introduction of the drama, but after watching a few episodes, I couldn't bear to watch the male and female protagonists or the plot lines, so I decided to read the original work. Now I find that it is really worth the trip! The characters are full-bodied and the open ending is also very good. After all, it is difficult for a woman with such rich experiences to be trapped by small loves. Each character has his or her own position, struggles, desires, and pursuits. And Amai gradually found the path he wanted to take from the men he had experienced. Chen Qi was her childhood dream and the source of her hatred; Shang Yizhi was her boss and discovered her potential; Chang Yuqing was a match in chess and gave her her deepest admiration; Tang Zhaoyi gave her the greatest sense of security and taught her righteousness. It's hard to say whether these men are good or bad, love them or not. From a more profound perspective, every man here is her life travel companion, making her what she is now. However, they only walked together for a while, and she had to go on her own in the end. All I can say is that there is no wasted road in this world. As long as she lives more and more like herself, everything will be worth it!
It's not procrastinating or irritating, the author has a solid background, the characters are flesh-and-blood, worth watching, the love between children is strong, and the justice of the family and country is respected. There is no golden finger. It grows up step by step from the sea of blood and corpses, without being abrupt or at a loss. Tang Shaoyi is not suitable for Amai, and Amai really only has brotherly feelings for Brother Tang. Regardless of the country, Amai and Chang Yuqing are people with the same views. They have worked hard for half their lives and cannot be free, so why can't they have fun for a while? Standing in Shangyi From Zhi's point of view, I understand him. From Amai's point of view, I hate Shang Yizhi. Fortunately, he finally let go and didn't bother me to the end. However, Chen Qi always overestimated himself and underestimated Amai, which was ultimately the reason for his defeat. It wouldn't be bad if Amai was beautiful alone, but she would feel more distressed. Imagine that Amai would end up alone, sitting on a boat on the Qingshui River, with only a wine jar for company. . . Cangran sits alone on the head of a lonely boat, Just watch the flow of the worldly river. I, Ma Xuan, have passed through the yellow clouds, Don't forget your sorrows if you mention the wine. I will feel a little sad. I give the author a thumbs up, and I'm considering whether to read the sequel "Prince Concubine's Promotion", but I was really put off by the title at first [awkward laugh]
This book is very suitable for my personal taste. The writing is exquisite, the characters are vivid, and it can resonate with people. It can make people cry and sometimes laugh out loud. Because of my limited level, I cannot write a gorgeous review, but this book is really worth reading.
It's super good-looking. This book can be called a textbook version. I took a quick glance at it for the first time. Because the plot is so exciting and full of ups and downs, I couldn't help but want to see the final result. After reading it, I was left with endless thoughts and endless aftertaste. I wanted to read it carefully from the beginning again, word for word, to appreciate the beautiful words in the book, which bloomed like fireworks in my mind!
I got into it from the author's "The Thing in the Palm". This "Amai Joins the Army" made me sleepless and forget to eat and sleep. After reading it for the first time, I quickly went back to watch it for the second time.
It's so beautiful. I like the pairing of Amai and Chang Yuqing very much. Although there is too much distance between them, I still hope that they will be together. Even if it doesn't follow the logic of this article, I still like them. I love them so much. I love this book so much.
This article is very good. It is not a romance article. If you like strong women, you should not miss it. The little side story is meant to increase Chang's welfare. There is a country between them and the death of many relatives and friends. After all, they cannot be pure. Qi Huan just loves Amai. A person like Amai should not live in a narrow and private palace. The position is just a temptation; Tang can only escape to death, he and the emperor are incompatible, but Tang is more suitable for Amai. They support each other all the way, regardless of life and death, there are no interests, they can live a simple and pure love and companionship, and live a free and unrestrained life with the sky high and the sea broad.
Amai started out as a lowly soldier, and had a rough and tortuous journey. He narrowly escaped death. Fortunately, he was helped by Brother Tang, who values love and righteousness. He also had comrades who never left him in life and death. He also had a close relationship with Chang Yuqing, the brave and scheming killer of the enemy. There was also a key figure that affected the smooth development of the entire war - Military Advisor Xu Jing, creating a handsome Mai who grew up all the way! The whole novel is very exciting, worth reading, very worth reading [laughs]. Thank you to the author for persisting in writing this novel for three and a half years, and we are lucky enough to read this wonderful novel! It has been made into a TV series, and the changes have been quite big. The characters chosen in the TV series feel a bit different from those in the novel. Shang Yizhi in the TV series is very funny. He is not as cruel and cold-hearted towards Ah Mai in the novel. The ending in the trailer is also different from the novel. I look forward to Ah Mai having a happy ending [laughs]
I like it so much! Group portrait text yyds! At the beginning, the heroine just wants to live without those feelings of family and country, but she will slowly grow up later. An open ending is good. I feel that the conversation between the heroine and Zhang Sheng at the end of the article seems to imply that Tang is not dead, so I will treat this ending as he. It is an open ending, Chang and Tang (the heroine is a bit special to the two of them). Of course, there are other single arrows, such as Shang (this one points out the ending from the beginning). As for Chen Qi, this person is a bit sad, but fortunately he doesn't have many scenes. I personally think that the emotional drama between the heroine and Chang is quite interesting! They fall in love with each other, use each other to deceive each other, and help each other! But the heroine generally has the upper hand, and she deserves to be the heroine [shy]! (Chang himself has a sense of family and country, and the country is more important than the heroine, but sometimes he can't control himself.) As a female character, the heroine actually has many shackles between words and deeds. Her only golden finger is her father, but the key is herself. To add, the heroine sometimes cannot control her emotions and cries. In fact, I am quite happy about it. This does not mean that she is weak. She was not assimilated by the war, she was still the same Amai, just better.
I saw Amai join the army many years ago. This is my favorite book about women joining the army. It is so tragic and tragic that it makes my blood boil. I have been a bookworm for more than ten years and have never seen more books about women joining the army. There are also some stories about women joining the army that are well written, but the exaggeration cannot be concealed. There are less simple, beautiful and sassy women. Recently I accidentally read about Amai Joining the Army and I was overjoyed 😄 I finally found this book.
