Synopsis

At the end of the story: “I saw a golden age!” (Ensemble cast, slow burn, nuanced emotions) They say that in times of chaos, staying alive matters more than anything. But no one tells you that the price of survival is quietly swallowing your heart, then becoming the very kind of person you hate most. Gentle people can be calculating, dependent people can become independent, and foolish people can grow perceptive. Cruelty can hide inside love; a sense of duty can lie beneath silence. Devotion and letting go can dwell in the same heart, while loyalty and disappointment can grip the same fist. The shades of human nature, and complex questions to ponder. “Su Shi'an, tell me once more: why do you want to save the world?” “Because when I look at the small, I see unease in Su Shiyu. Because when I look at the vastness of the sun and moon, I see helplessness in Lin Suiyuan. We are not vermin to be trampled in the streets. The ones who truly deserve to perish should not be sitting in a high position that was never theirs.” “If you can't even manage your own feelings, how can you save the world?” “Isn't that true of you as well? If people could sort everything out, there would be no desire, and this world that devours its own would not exist.” “Lin Suiyuan, I'm stepping aside of my own accord. He's a good man, and so are you. I hope the two of you can be happy together.” “Su Shi'an, I'm sorry, but let's just be brothers. You're a married man now, so please behave yourself.” “Miss Lin, would you do me the honor of accompanying me to the lantern festival?” “I've been waiting a long time to hear you say that...” “I'm sorry, this is your stop. Will you wait for me? Once I've become a real man, I'll marry you openly and honorably.” “All right...”

The Pinnacle of Historical Fiction

Looking for books similar to *Tang Dynasty: Defying the Imperial Decree Is the Only Way to Get Stronger*. This book makes me cry every time I read it. I've read it five or six times, and I still cry. I just can't believe anything else is better. It's the strongest historical novel in my book! An 8.9 rating is way too low. I'd give it a 9.

The Ming, Song, and Tang Dynasties

Are there really no stories about the Liao, Jin, Yuan-Mongol, Dali, and Tubo? Is it because there aren't enough sources or historical records? Did we all have different textbooks in our nine years of compulsory education? Do I have to look up local gazetteers?
