   As a scholar, I have read too many articles about the rebirth of Concubine Hua, and almost all of them are about revenge, but not this one. But this one made me cry to death: I don't know what will happen if Concubine Hua is reborn, but I am sure that she will never take revenge on the emperor.

    1. The love between Zhen Fei and Ouyang Jingyu is the fragrance of plum blossoms hidden when the snow falls in Chang'an, and the remaining candles burned out in the beacon smoke in the north. The seven-year age difference, the natural chasm of identity, and Lin Huanhuan's infatuation turned "love without love" into the sharpest knife, dissecting the two of them with blood. The ending of BE is like frozen soil, sealing all the deep feelings inside. Every time I think about it, my heart feels a little painful, but because of this broken beauty, it is firmly engraved into my bones. 2. The story is like a knife soaked in sea salt, cutting repeatedly between "love" and "loss". Ah Heng exchanged his life for a moment of hug with Gu Shen, and Gu Shen used his remaining soul to protect her for the rest of his life, but in the end they both became ashes in the clouds and sand in the sea. BE's regret is like sea fog, lingering for a long time, but it makes this marriage vow that spans life and death give birth to the ultimate beauty in the desolation - love to the extreme, even death becomes a part of each other.

    🔥She sleeps at dawn! This sadistic article made me cry half a box of tissues #redemption towards #BEesthetics #heartbreaking tears #darkness and light #meaning is difficult to calm down literature 🔪Depressing character design The heroine: a lonely bird struggling on the barren and cracked land. She has been in darkness for a long time and has even forgotten the feeling of being illuminated. However, after meeting the "sun", she longs to live and longs for eternity for the first time. The male protagonist: An existence like the blazing sun, planting sunflowers for her and lighting up her world, but due to the identity gap, he is destined to be on a different trajectory from her. 📖Tear-jerking famous scene [Light in the Dark] Her world was once full of desolation, until he planted sunflowers for her with his own hands. Those golden flower plates were the gentle salvation he gave her. "She had been in darkness for so long that she forgot what it felt like to be illuminated by light." But when she finally relied on this light and even tried to take the sun as her own, she was shocked to realize that the two of them did not belong to the same world. [Dawn Elegy] When she was 18 years old, she longed for freedom, but because of him, she gradually longed to "live". I want to live to be 20 years old to marry him, and to live to be 23 years old to be married by him. But fate is cruel, "Dawn always comes, and she sleeps on the ground at dawn." Those unspoken loves and unfulfilled promises are eventually drowned in regret. [Despair of not being able to love] She once had countless longings for the future, but they were shattered in the face of reality. He is the sun, shining brightly; she is dust, trapped in the mire. They are obviously close to each other, but they are destined to be pulled apart by the world, which is extremely cruel! 📌READ WARNING ⚠️ Non-combatants evacuate quickly! - The full text is full of BE aesthetics, from sweet and warm redemption to sad farewell, and the tears can't stop at all. - It has great stamina. After reading it, my mind was filled with thoughts of "Her and the Sun". I couldn't stop being immersed in the story for several days. - It is very easy to cause impulsive behaviors such as "hoarding tissues" and "begging for a side story", so be careful before entering the trap! Dear friends, if you want to experience the ultimate sadomasochism, watch "Mu Si Nan (She at Dawn)"! See the intertwining of darkness and light, feel the tear-jerking story of love that cannot be achieved, and get ready for a heartbreaking journey!
