Opening "No Sacrifice to the Luoqun to Sacrifice the Beacon Fire", I plunged headlong into that imaginary world of intertwined intrigues and wars, following the footsteps of the heroine Zong Yanli, and embarked on a soul-stirring adventure. Zong Yanli, this legendary figure who disguises herself as a man, is responsible for the important responsibilities of her family and country. In her previous life, she experienced ups and downs on the battlefield and in political intrigues. Her father died in battle, her sister was harmed, and she also struggled to survive in the whirlpool of power. After returning from rebirth, she brought with her the memories and lessons of her previous life, and used her fearless courage and extraordinary resourcefulness to navigate the military camp step by step. When she first entered the military camp, faced with discrimination and doubts, she did not shrink back, but relied on her wisdom to establish her dignity; on the battlefield, she charged into battle, regardless of life and death, showing her pride as a woman. She shared the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, won the heartfelt support of everyone, and gradually moved towards the road of becoming a marquis and a general. What moved me most in the book was Zong Yanli's infinite loyalty to his family and country. She put aside her personal life and death, honor and disgrace, and only dedicated herself to protecting the country and the people. During the war-torn years, she shouldered the heavy responsibility of protecting her family and country with her weak body. This responsibility is admirable. The author's descriptions of the war scenes are extremely wonderful, from the tense atmosphere before the war, to the fierce fighting with swords and swords and flesh and blood flying everywhere on the battlefield, to the devastation after the war, they are all described in detail. It made me feel like I was in that troubled world full of gunpowder. I deeply felt the cruelty and ruthlessness of war, and I could better understand Zong Yanli's firm belief in protecting his family and country.

#Chapter 1 Swimsuit Photo The big black G was speeding along the winding mountain road. The mountains outside the window were undulating, like the waves set off by the sea, continuous and green. The blue sky and white clouds hide the cascading mountains, like a beautiful landscape painting. But no one appreciates this picture. The atmosphere in the car was almost stagnant. Yu Su sat in the passenger seat and turned her head to look out the window. There was no expression on her face, but her fingertips holding the phone tightened slightly. Qi Ye was sitting in the driver's seat, holding the steering wheel with one hand and resting his other hand on the window, tapping his slender fingers rhythmically. His chiseled profile looked like it had been carefully carved in the sunlight. Under his thick eyebrows, his deep eyes looked straight ahead, showing no emotion. It was their first vacation together - if it could be called a vacation - in four years of marriage. Three days ago, Mrs. Qi turned seventy-five. In front of the whole family, she pointed at the two of them and said, "We have been married for four years and we haven't even had a honeymoon. What do you mean? You two must go out and relax next week!" So this trip to the Maldives came about. They said they were vacationing together, but in fact the two of them were busy with their own affairs. Qi Ye holds video conferences and processes documents in the hotel suite every day; Yu Su enjoys the sun and the beach alone, occasionally taking photos and sending them to her three children in China. Until this morning, a hot search broke this delicate balance. ## The topic is the swimsuit photo of Yu Su taken at the beach yesterday. She was wearing a white hollow knitted dress and swimsuit, standing between the azure sea water and the white beach. Her black hair was like a waterfall, her skin was as good as snow, and the sun gilded her body with a layer of gold. Her whole body was breathtakingly beautiful. The photo was secretly taken by other hotel guests and uploaded, and it became one of the top three trending searches in just a few hours. "Mr. Qi, do you need to handle it?" The special assistant's cautious call came to Qi Ye's mobile phone at six in the morning. Qi Ye stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at Yu Su who was walking on the beach in the distance. His voice was as cold as ice: "Within three minutes, I want this hot search to disappear." "Yes, I will contact the public relations department and technical department immediately." "No need." Qi Ye interrupted him, "I will do it myself." The special assistant on the other end of the phone was stunned. Mr. Qi personally handles this kind of tidbits? This is even more incredible than seeing Mr. Qi wearing casual clothes. Twenty minutes later, the trending search magically disappeared, and all related photos and topics were cleared away. Qi Ye, the instigator, was already fully dressed and knocked on Yu Su's door. "Pack your things, let's change places." This was the first thing he said to Yu Su who had just returned to the room. Yu Su was holding his mobile phone at the time and had obviously seen the hot search. She raised her eyebrows slightly: "Because of those photos?" Qi Ye didn't answer, just turned and walked to the elevator: "We'll leave in half an hour." Now, they were on their way to another private island. The silence in the car was suffocating, only the mechanical female voice of the navigation system occasionally broke the silence. "It doesn't have to be like this." Yu Su finally spoke in a calm voice, "Those photos are not a big deal." Qi Ye tightened his fingers on the steering wheel: "The image of the Qi family cannot be compromised." Yu Su chuckled lightly and turned to look at him: "You mean, my swimsuit photos will damage the image of the Qi family?" Qi Ye's profile tightened: "You know that's not what I meant." "What does that mean?" Yu Su asked in a rare move, "We have been married for four years and you have never expressed an opinion on my schedule or clothing. Why do a few photos make you so angry?" The car suddenly stopped suddenly and stopped on the side of the road. Qi Ye turned to her, and there was a hint of emotion that Yu Su had never seen in his eyes that were always calm and composed. "Because you are my wife." He said every word. Yu Su was stunned. This was the first time Qi Ye had declared his sovereignty so clearly. For four years, they treated each other as guests and lived their own lives. Except for necessary public occasions, they lived almost like two strangers under the same roof. "I thought..." Yu Su's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, "Our marriage is just a contract." Qi Ye's eyes dimmed and he restarted the car: "It still is." But something was different. Yu Su can feel it. She looked down at the deleted hot search screenshots on her phone. For some reason, her heartbeat was a little faster than usual. "What are your plans for tomorrow?" Qi Ye suddenly asked after driving for a while. Yu Su looked up in surprise. This was the first time Qi Ye asked her about her itinerary. "I... Plan to go snorkeling." She answered truthfully, "I heard the coral reefs here are beautiful." Qi Ye nodded and said nothing. But that night, Yu Su received a brand new set of snorkeling equipment from the hotel, along with a card with Qi Ye's flying dragon and phoenix handwriting on it: "Pay attention to safety." These three simple words made Yu Su stare at it for a long time. She thought of the cold wedding four years ago, how they discussed their post-marriage living arrangements like a negotiation, and how they spent countless days living under the same roof but becoming strangers. Maybe, maybe something is changing quietly. The next morning, when Yu Su came to the dock, she saw an unexpected figure. Qi Ye was wearing a casual T-shirt and shorts and was checking the snorkeling equipment. The sun was shining on him, softening the outline of the man who was usually as cold as iron. "You... Want to go too?" Yu Su asked uncertainly, standing behind him. Qi Ye turned around. Under the sunlight, his eyes showed a light brown color that Yu Su had never noticed before: "I told you, pay attention to safety." He paused and added, "It feels more reassuring to see it in person." Yu Su felt a strange warmth rising from the bottom of his heart. She suddenly realized that this might be their first real date since their marriage. "Then... Together?" She tentatively stretched out her hand. Qi Ye looked at her hand, and after a moment of hesitation, he held it and said, "Together." In the blue water, when Qi Ye's hand was always guarding her side, Yu Su felt for the first time that this marriage that started out of profit might have other possibilities. --- **The next plot may revolve around the following developments**: - **Undercurrent of possessiveness**: What was locked in the drawer of Qi Ye's study was not business documents, but a stack of photos and newspaper clippings of Yu Su over the years. When did this cold man start recording his wife's every move? - **Broken Disguise**: When Yu Su received a call late at night that her child had a fever, was the distress that flashed in Qi Ye's eyes an illusion? Why did the man who never showed his emotions suddenly cancel all meetings and drive home in person? - **Dangerously Close**: Yu Su accidentally discovered the investigation information about her college days on Qi Ye's computer. What unknown secrets does this husband, whom she thought had no feelings, hide?
