If I were to recommend an ancient BE novel with the greatest stamina and the most exquisite writing, my first recommendation would be "The Lonely City". It does not have hysterical misunderstandings and injuries. Its cruelty is the sense of powerlessness of **"The height of the palace wall, trapping her for life"**, and the sadness of **"A page in the history book, burying her for life"**. ❤️‍🩹 **"The Closed City" - Lady Milan** (based on real history, elegant writing style, every word is exquisite)

In the first book, the male protagonist's love is very humble. The ending is okay. The second book didn't get any better until it reached more than 400 chapters, and the ending was also good. The fourth book is not finished yet. It's also a bit sadistic. I was tortured when I was reminiscing in the 6th book, and I was also tortured when I tortured the male protagonist in the later period. Because the male protagonist was bewitched, he no longer recognizes the female protagonist. It was because of the heroine that she was bewitched.

When deep love crashes on the chessboard of imperial power: Only after reading "Xing Zhi Wan" do you understand that the most touching sincerity is hidden in the ultimate sadomasochism. In the world of sadomasochism, as the old saying goes, there are always people who make moves in the whirlpool of power, but they don't know that they have already fallen into the hands of others. "Xing Zhi Wan" uses 145,000 words to weave a breathless and affectionate trap. When the red thread between the cute queen and the arrogant emperor wraps around the red lacquered corridor pillars of the Golden Palace, the mountains, rivers, sun and moon hidden in the eyes are finally shattered into an unbearable sound in the frost and snow of imperial power. 1. Two-way mismatched love is tenderness sharper than a dagger. The story begins with a well-designed political marriage. She entered the palace with a "sober, soft and cute" appearance, but when they first met, she covered his mouth with a handkerchief stained with osmanthus sugar, and whispered in his ear, "His Majesty's eyes are like the Milky Way." This little queen, who was always pretending to be crazy and foolish in the palace, used the softest way to cut the ice in the emperor's heart - it turned out that the man who was always killing and making decisions in the court would personally prepare the soothing soup in front of her bedside, and would say "I'm afraid you'll fall" with red eyes when she sneaked out of the palace, but he would protect her behind the dragon sleeves in front of the world. He hid the promise of "our love will never last", folded the promise of "forever being friends" into gold foil, and pasted each piece on her invisible wound. When the blood of the harem battle dyed her skirt red, and when his fingertips trembled when he wrote the edict to abolish the queen, those unspoken "I was wrong" were more heartbreaking than any torture. It turns out that the highest level of affection has always been a solo dance with shackles. He protected the stars in her eyes, but had to extinguish the fire in his heart with his own hands. 2. A tsunami of emotions packed with details, every page hides the pain that pierces the heart. The author Zhi'er is good at weaving a web of love using poetic language, but there are hidden thorns under the gentle surface. In the moonlight of their wedding night, the "transparent eyes" she saw when she tiptoed to cover his mouth became the memory anchor throughout the entire text - many years later when he was reviewing the memorial, he suddenly asked, "Are my eyes still as bright as they were then?" A few digits made the reader's heart skip a beat. There are also the feelings hidden in the utensils: the jade pendant she mended was broken and repaired, the sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed by him was sweet and astringent, and even the blue bricks in the palace remembered the footsteps of their whispers. The most suffocating thing is the "awake crit" in sadomasochism. She knew clearly that the love of an emperor never went both ways, but she still stubbornly warmed his palms with her body temperature when he was seriously ill; he knew that deposing the queen was the only way to save her, but when he was writing the edict, he bit the tip of his tongue and let the blood drop on the ink of "The Queen has no virtue". This kind of persistence that you know you can't do is more heartbreaking than direct betrayal - they didn't lose to fate, but to the pride and tenderness in each other's flesh and blood. 3. When the soft and cute shell peels off: This is the growth-oriented heroine that female channel readers most want to see. Different from the traditional "strong heroine and refreshing novel", the heroine of "Xing Zhi Wan" has the sobriety and vulnerability of modern people. She would scheming people in the harem's conspiracy, but could not figure out the emperor's suspicion; she would smile and tidy her hair when the imperial edict was issued, but she would bite her lip when no one was around. This kind of "awakening pain" makes the character more real - she is not a dodder with a love brain, but an awakened person struggling in the palace with the memory of her past life. In the end, in the tearing of love and hate, she chooses to protect the sincerity of the two people in the most decisive way. The character of the male protagonist can be described as a "tsundere". He despises her for being "clumsy", but yet he delivers soup to her in the rain on a rainy night. He is clearly afraid of losing the balance of power, but he fights with important ministers in the court for her. When he took off his dragon robe to reveal the bloodshot eyes, when he carved "I will live up to the world but not you" on her grave, the once aloof emperor finally knelt in the dust of fate for her. When I closed the book, the moonlight outside the window was as cold as described in the book. Those hugs hidden in the shadow of the Golden Palace, those oaths mixed with cinnabar tears, eventually became the most touching failure on the chessboard of imperial power. "Xingzhiwan" is not a simple sadomasochism novel, but a bloody romance about love and growth - it allows us to see how, in the face of absolute power, the purest feelings can bloom into thorny flowers, but also bloom into the most dazzling light among the thorns. If you love the forbearance of "Chow Sheng Ru Gu" and are obsessed with the cruelty of "East Palace", then "Xing Zhi Wan" will definitely make you cry until you are starved of oxygen while holding your phone in your hands late at night. Those deep feelings hidden in the details, those regrets engraved in the bones and blood, will eventually hit the softest corner of your heart at an inadvertent moment.
