Troubled times are like chess, who is not a chess piece? After the Anshi Rebellion, the embers of the prosperous age have not yet cooled. Yangzhou, an important water transportation center, has a turbulent undercurrent. The salt and iron envoy, who is sick and torn apart, holds the power in his hand and can count the world, but he cannot count the hearts of one person. The upright academy gentleman in green shirt is independent from the world, but he is forced to step into this blood-stained chess game.
Purple robe and jade belt, knocking on bones and questioning the situation, killing the blood in the conspiracy; green shirt and old harp, pure heart is not lost, sowing life on the scorched earth. They are classmates, confidants, opponents in the chess game, and lovers who cannot embrace each other in troubled times.
Grain in the canals rotted, salt caused chaos, military pay was cut off, and the lifeblood of the canal was tied to the body's diseased bones. The prophecy of the golden sword, the eunuch's plot, the tribulation of the feudal town, the afterglow of the prosperous age illuminates the idle thoughts.
Pei Lan counted everyone in the world, but he couldn't predict the madness and tenderness in his eyes when he looked at Chu Qing.
On nights that will not be recorded in history books, he boiled medicine for him with his own hands and played Guangling Powder for him. The history pen is like a knife, where can I send my loyalty? Except for Yu Qingshi, I feel every inch of lovesickness and an inch of gray.
Intention: The choice and destiny of scholars under the wheel of history
Reader comments
I originally wanted to write it the day I finished reading it, but I felt depressed after reading it. I saw the extra chapter today and was completely dead after reading it. At first, I was still thinking about how my wife had changed her gender, but then she said, "Sure enough," and "No wonder it's a Chinese Ghost Festival episode instead of a Chinese Valentine's Day episode." In fact, when I first read it, I felt quite aggrieved, because I felt that my wife wrote it really well, but the data was very bleak. Nowadays, most people are accustomed to short, flat and fast reading, and it is not easy for this kind of slow and delicate writing to gain market share. I really feel that it is a pity. More people should see such a good work.
When I first read it, I felt that my wife was too cruel to them and it was difficult to accept such an ending. Later, I calmed down and thought about it. In fact, the game presented to us with a warm filter. If we think about it carefully, human life was like a piece of grass during the war. There were only a few strokes in the history books, but behind it was a mountain of corpses, a sea of blood, and numerous bones. In comparison, death due to illness is considered a good death. For a person like Pei Lan, it was a blessing to die at that time. If he was alive to see what happened next, he would probably be angry and hateful to death.
I believe that my wife must have put a lot of effort into writing this article and trying to be realistic. Many times, when reading historical materials and reading monographs, the descriptions written in order to be close to the historical facts may be the least important part to the readers, and they may be scanned line by line. But I think it is precisely because the author has made so many efforts and strived to be rigorous and precise in every detail that he can gather the sand into a tower and lead the readers into a situation that we are not familiar with and do not understand. You can empathize with what the protagonist sees, knows, feels, and thinks. Words are dreams weaved by the author for readers. Thank you for creating this article.
I was stunned for a long time after reading it, and I remembered my original intention of choosing this sect, because I longed for the Li and Tang poets who left many magnificent poems, and lamented their wandering lives, being excluded, suppressed, demoted, exiled, and dying in foreign lands. Perhaps this is the fate of literati in troubled times. If the Changge Sect really exists, they may be like this, struggling, unwilling, unwilling to compromise but forced to compromise, dying in regret and resentment.
There is a line in Yang Qingyue's biography in the game that I like very much, and I always use it as a signature in the game: "Yang Qingyue can't remember the past years. In the confusion, the unknown time passes, but once the Qingming comes, he still remembers the heart of a scholar." No matter what his own circumstances are, he still cares about the common people in the world. This is the character of the literati, and it is the most touching thing in their poems and songs.
It's been so many years since I reviewed it, so maybe my memory is inaccurate, but I really can't watch it again. I feel, think, and talk nonsense. If I have offended you in any way, I sincerely apologize in advance.
