The Yong Dynasty has been prosperous for fifteen years. In Kyoto, Shen Ruoning, the daughter of the Minister of Rites, is nine years old. She was born in the hairpin family. She has known Lu Huaiyuan, the second son of the Marquis of Jing'an since she was a child. The two are like bamboo horses and green plums, and they have a deep friendship. However, Shen Ruoning's heart was only tied to Lu Jiuyuan, the eldest son of the Hou Mansion. Fate is unpredictable. The Shen Mansion was suddenly framed for collaborating with the enemy and treason. The building collapsed overnight. The former pearl had no choice but to live in the dust, struggling to survive in humiliation.
Twenty-six-year-old Lu Jiuyuan wears battle armor all year round and gallops on the battlefield. His strong and upright figure is like a god descending in Shen Ruoning's heart. She has been deeply in love with him since she was a child and will never forget him.
Because of his high achievements, he was suspected by the emperor. He reflected on himself at home and was shocked to learn about Shen Ruoning's tragic situation. He resolutely broke through the cage, broke through the confusion of troubled times with his iron fist, and protected her behind him.
In the turmoil of war, the two secretly fell in love, but they were also caught in a conspiracy. The undercurrent in the court is surging, and the family blood feud is like a web. Lu Jiuyuan struggles painfully between responsibility and emotion. He has to work hard to cut through the thorns, but he is also difficult to make a choice. When love and hate intertwine into blood, and desire for power burns old dreams, can Shen Ruoning break free from the shackles of the hairpin and be reborn? Can Lu Jiuyuan's armor cut through the thorns and save her in the abyss? The sky is filled with flames of war, and a life-and-death covenant about redemption slowly unfolds in blood and tears, describing the strife of the dynasty.
Reader comments
I have been reading it for a few days now, and I am attracted by the novel's context. I feel that this novel is suitable for reading slowly. It has a eloquent feeling and is not impatient. The emotional scenes between men and women are not so abrupt and smooth.
Childhood sweethearts in the prosperous days of the Great Yong Dynasty were originally supposed to be an ordinary story about Prince Hou Men's betrothal to the daughter of the gift department, but unexpectedly, the pen was changed, and the reputation of collaboration with the enemy crushed the glory of the Shen family, the pearl fell into the dust, and the friendship and deep-rooted love in the past became the most painful thorns in the thorn bush.
The best thing is the character creation. There is no suspended "overlord saving the beauty", only two-way struggle in troubled times. Shen Ruoning is not a dodder flower waiting for redemption. From a noble lady to surviving in the mud, her "toughness" is hidden between the lines; Lu Jiuyuan is not a perfect god of war. When the armor is on, he is a general who protects the family and the country. After taking off the military uniform, he has to be torn between the emperor's suspicion, family responsibility and inner obsession. The "pain" makes the character stand up instantly.
The plot lines and the emotional lines are intertwined wonderfully, the undercurrents in the court are the background, the family blood feud is the touchstone, and the emotions that grow in the flames of war are more sincere. When Lu Jiuyuan broke through the cage to protect her behind him, and when Shen Ruoning looked at his god-like figure in a desperate situation, the readers were already trapped in this life-and-death agreement about redemption with them.
