Embers

I haven't seen much of it yet, but I already want to give it a good review. When the male protagonist appears, he has the feeling of a beautiful, strong and miserable young man. The heroine is more sober and wise. The prince who lost his country changed his name and went to another country to live with a different identity. What is his purpose? Do you really not want to return to the country? I'm a little curious about what happened to them in their previous lives? I hope the author will intersperse stories about their previous lives later. If you just read Chapter 1, it should be a relatively sad story.

This book is really interesting. The male and female protagonists were reborn carrying the trauma of the previous life. I thought it would be sweet for the two of them to reunite. But the dilemma they faced in their previous life reappeared in another form. Yun Hezhi's trauma is heartbreaking. He is so gentle to Xie Yu. Xie Yu was gentle and tough. In an era when the world looked down upon merchants, he served as the young head of the Cui family and opened up trade routes. Turn her love rival into a best friend, help her sister ask PUA's husband, help the princess, fight against marriage, accompany her lover on missions to enemy countries, and dare to rectify her lover's name. Intelligent yet naive, so charming. After seeing the extra, I completely understood why Yun Hezhi and Xie Yu had such personalities. Yun Hezhi has lived a life of abandonment. A person who has been stigmatized and abandoned since childhood will first doubt himself when he encounters problems. His love and hatred are so extreme. In order to take revenge in his last life, he could make himself into a knife. He was willing to be held by others. As long as it could cut the enemy, he never regretted it even if it was broken and thrown away in the end. He walked towards his certain death soberly. And Xie Yu is an exception in his life. The warmth of the snowy night in Zhaodu became a solitary lamp in his life, and he desperately tried to hold on to this remaining warmth. Using his own death to find a way out for her was the ultimate love that Yun Hezhi gave based on his survival instinct. His personality background is dark, paranoid, self-destructive, and insecure. After rebirth, Yun Hezhi still couldn't completely overcome this trauma, but he saw hope. His lover was brave and tolerant. The Yun family and his son gave him rare family care. Wei felt that this was very important. His change was not entirely due to Xie Yu's love, but also to the support of family and friendship. After seeing the extra chapter - Goodbye Xie Yu, I really felt sorry for Xie Yu. When she was a child, her family loved her, she was bright and cheerful. But until Xie Jue entered Yan as a hostage, everything changed. Her family's original intention was to protect her, but it was such protection that Xie Jue's disappearance completely crushed her. The comments made by outsiders made her internalize them at a young age, attacking herself and thinking it was her fault. She lived with guilt all her life and lost the protection of her loved ones and family. In order to find Xie Jue, she went north alone, but was kidnapped and sold. She became a slave, losing her dignity and freedom. For her who grew up in a high school, it must be a huge psychological gap. And Yun Hezhi died alone, making her face loss again and once again be placed in the status of "survivor". In their last life, they were absolutely in true love, and they loved each other deeply and regarded each other as light. But despite being so in love, the emotional misalignment is too serious. Xie Yu's love pursues dignity, freedom, and each other. It goes against the love that Yun Hezhi can give. And there is a very special setting. Both Yun Hezhi and Xie Yu witnessed each other's childhood sufferings. It is not that they did not intervene, but their efforts were too small. This effort is insignificant compared to the giant wheel of history. In other words, they cannot change the other party's thinking logic. Even if they remind and stop it, it is useless. There is no way to redeem the other party. So as long as both of them are burdened with memories and trauma, they will be able to make different choices from the previous life.

When Xie Yu and Yun Hezhi returned to Zhao Kingdom to destroy Yan, Xie Yu was still a noblewoman of the noble family, but Yun Hezhi did not change the fate of the prince who perished. Only this time, he returned to Dayong with Xie Yu. But everything they experienced in the previous life burned like fire to the two of them. They wanted to get close but were afraid, wanted to restrain but were attracted to each other. Most of the women in the article help each other. They are shackled by the times, but they are also willing to overcome the barriers. Although the male and female protagonists are both reborn, they do not have golden fingers. Everything they do affects the changes around them. The article contains the darkness of human nature, but also the warmth of family and friends. This book is quite interesting. It's not bloody or bitchy. Everyone has their own predicament and reasonable motivations for their actions. The relationship between the male and female protagonists is quite interesting. After her rebirth, the female protagonist has always felt that the male protagonist has a blood feud and is very dangerous, so she has always restrained herself and forced herself to stay away from him. But the male protagonist is a paranoid young man who is fully aware of his beauty, presses on her every step of the way, gets extremely jealous when he sees the female protagonist looking at other people, and is completely insecure. The female protagonist also fell step by step under the offensive, but due to the identity of the male protagonist and the painful lessons from her previous life, she still did not dare to get close. But he also very bravely expressed his feelings to the male protagonist, confessing that he was moved, but also clearly told the male protagonist that he did not want to live dependent on others in this life, and advised the male protagonist to live for himself in this life. It was only at this time that the male protagonist truly understood the female protagonist, and he began to reflect on what the meaning of hatred is. What is the meaning of restoration? What exactly do people in this world need? What kind of life does he want to live? Will he repeat the fate of his previous life? In the end, the male protagonist decided to give up reviving the country and giving up hatred. This time he chose to be Yun Hezhi. After the two talked to each other, the heroine did not hesitate and expressed her feelings openly. After the two confirmed their relationship, the male protagonist's insecurities disappeared and he was no longer paranoid. He became gentle and slowly transformed into a husband. It's rare to see a reincarnation story that doesn't deal with revenge, but instead focuses on healing past life trauma and building one's self. The villain also has his own dark logic and psychological trauma, which fully demonstrates that man is a product of the environment and the times.

The layout is grand, not limited to small romances, and the plot lines are well conceived. The relationship between monarch and ministers and the imperial power of the gentry are also well depicted.
