The first time Zhuer killed someone in front of Wen Jiang, she had just turned fifteen.
The one who died was a maid because they were talking about her being too close to her brother, the prince Zhuer, behind her back. Zhuer tied the maid in the stable of the East Palace and handed Wen Jiang a dagger.
The dagger was exquisite, with a sharkskin sheath inlaid with turquoise.
"Her words are like a dull knife that will cut you day after day." Zhuer's voice was very calm, as if he was discussing the weather, "And this one is a sharp knife. Hold it."
Wen Jiang didn't move. She looked at the horrified face of the maid and suddenly asked an irrelevant question: "Brother, do you think that came first, the chicken or the egg?"
Zhuer was stunned for a moment.
Wen Jiang continued talking to himself: "If I kill her, is it because she deserves to die, or because I want her to die?"
Her voice was very soft, like a snowflake falling on a red-hot iron, making an inaudible "sizzle" sound.
For the first time, Zhuer's eyes showed the ultimate excitement of meeting his opponent. He took back the dagger and killed the maid with his own hands. The blood splashed on his black robe like a few drops of ink.
He wiped his hands and handed her the clean dagger again.
"Now you understand," he stared at her, as if admiring a perfect work of art, "'should we die or not' is a question that only the weak need to discuss. And we only need to decide who will die and who will live."
Wen Jiang took the dagger.
That day, she learned her most important lesson in this palace.
Reader comments
Quite interesting. I started reading online novels in the first grade of junior high school, and now in my third year of college, I rarely see such coherent and interesting novels. First of all, the author's writing style surpasses 99% of online writers. The author must be a student of literature, and there are many adjectives that are not aimless at the same time. It made me want to read the next sentence after reading one sentence, and it did not feel verbose. And he also writes about such an unconventional subject matter.
I have been trying to read novels of different types and styles (mainly because I used to read too many fighting and killing novels, which were all routines, and now I have no passion at all). This is the first historical novel I have read.
The writing style is very good, the psychological description of the characters is very delicate, the atmosphere is spooky and unique, and the subject matter is unpopular. I will always support it [sending my heart]
Of course, there are some things that I am dissatisfied with. First of all, it is like this sentence, which is a strange sentence break. Sometimes such sentence breaks can have a strong sense of sound, but many times they also break the emotional link... In addition, I personally don't like the portrayal of Xuan Jiang. In addition, in history, Xuan Jiang supported his son after his husband died, and his son was overthrown by the left and right princes before he fled to Qi.
It's over! Congratulations, thank you to the author for the story [blowing kiss]
"Mrs. Jiang, returns to Zhuqiu."
A few words describe her glorious and exciting life
At first, I thought Zhuer was Wenjiang's leader and was more powerful than Wenjiang. But after Shi Zhifen, I knew I was wrong. Wenjiang was already stronger than Zhuer at that time, so it made sense that he couldn't deal with Wenjiang later.
What I don't understand is why Wen Jiang killed Zhu'er. Is it to dominate the world? If it is written according to the romantic idea, they can always be together, but if it is written according to history, I can understand it. Although I have not read this history and I don't know Wen Jiang, I should know her from the author's words.
I don't understand why Gongzi Ke and them all are like poison. After talking with Wen Jiang for a few words, he can regard Wen Jiang as his faith. Until I read the last chapter, it turns out that all the different methods to deal with them are based on the huge amount of information and the most suitable method for them. I was impressed by Wen Jiang again.
The author's writing style is very good, and he is very good at depicting images and feelings. Even if the entire text is described, you will only feel that the description is very delicate, and you will not feel that it is repetitive.
There are not many dialogues in the article. This narrative method makes people not have a deep sense of immersion, but truly reads Wen Jiang's life objectively from the perspective of a third party.
Although this book has not been rated yet, I think everyone will have their own feelings after reading it, and it is worth reading.
Without mourning for Zhuer's end for a moment, the next person to feel the battlefield was the leader of the Five Hegemons - Young Master Xiaobai! ! !
In a sense, forbidden love, is this "in line with Zhou etiquette"? [Full] [full] [full] [laughing evilly]
When I was studying, I knew something about the story of Qi Da Fei Ou, King Xiang of Qi and Wen Jiang. In the Book of Songs, the words "Nanshan", "Zaixiu" and "Zhaoxi" all tell this story. We have no way of proving what actually happened in history. But I think this is a perfect adaptation of this story, and I think the remake should be very interesting. You can read between the lines that the author's words penetrate deeply and his writing style penetrates the back of the paper. I found this treasure book and stayed up late to read it (I don't recommend staying up late [crying] [crying])
Crazy batch is worth picking up, memorize... Is worth picking up, the writing is good, it's hard not to love it
I like memorizing German with a sense of taboo!
I feel like my brain that hasn't been used for a long time is alive again [laughing] It's just as interesting to read some gossipy historical stories [shy] it has to be Machiavellian [like] [like] [like]
I want to recommend this book to others [smile]
Borrowing the words from the sister who made the long comment: "very ghostly"
The author writes very well
My heart is throbbing when I see it
"Mrs. Jiang, return to Zhuqiu" eight characters with full damage and critical hits
It's like watching an ancient official historical drama
I'm a little bit PTSD, and I don't dare to read the ancient Chinese genre anymore [I'm about to cry].
I originally thought I was going to do orthopedics [thinking]... I skipped to read it, it's not easy to create, so I'll give it five stars [cool]
Very nice! ! ! Books based on history really shocked me! ! ! As an old bookworm, this is really a rare book! ! ! Everyone go and see it! ! ! The writing is very good! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
It's quite interesting. I'm scared to see it.
This is my first time writing a book review. Personally, I feel that punctuation could be used better. Otherwise it will be a bit choppy like the previous sentence. The plot of the article is quite good and the subject matter is novel👍🏾
Very nice to read and the author of Machiavellian is talented.
Will they write about their relationship later? Still a great heroine
Two words of treasure, please give me more traffic. Very well written.
It's pretty cool, but I don't understand why Xuan Jiang was written as such a person. There seems to be no record of a bad relationship between Xuan Jiang and Wen Jiang in history. . .
A demon puts on human skin, and she is the most successful political creature.
It's really worth appreciating the art of Machiavellian tactics.
It's quite nice and gives a different perspective.
The writing is really good
The seeds planted have their own causal cycle
Damn, I just realized that it's Shi Tong ´ₒ⦁⩊⦁ₒ`
It turned out to be such an ending, it shocked me from the beginning
