Twelve years ago, the Leng clan and a group of conspirators were beheaded in public at the execution grounds.
Twelve years later, the sole surviving Leng daughter disguises herself as a man and carries a blood feud as she inches toward her goal. But for the sake of love, she is no longer reckless or proud. She is the cold-faced leader of the Qin Yue Tower, the emperor's favored minister at court, and a marquess who commands the loyalty of her troops amid mutiny and war. Yet the person she is in truth turns out not to be herself.
Han Yue'er, young lady of Feiyan Manor, is so beautiful she could put the moon to shame and make flowers wither. She is just as her name suggests, always displaying an innate air of fragility. Though she knows she is marrying the wrong man, she is willing to follow him for the rest of her life.
Qin Wanyi, a princess of Qin, awakens after sleeping for half a year, having lost all her memories. Yet in a former life, she was Yuan Shi, and her destiny was bound to Princess Qingyan from the start: one phoenix and one male phoenix, one emperor and one empress, joined by a sinful bond that cannot be severed.
Zhuge Ying, daughter of the Jin state's Imperial Preceptor, is young but deeply calculating. Educated by her tutors from childhood, she has dabbled in the teachings of the various schools of thought. She has always believed that only by contending with others can one secure a place in the world, and only by contending with Heaven can one claim one's fate. But in the end, even after all her striving, she cannot overcome destiny, and ends up making a wedding dress for another woman.
And then there is Chu Ning, Princess of Siming. Though spoiled and arrogant, she is really just a child who has never been exposed to deceit and scheming. She acts on her own impulses, making her easy to provoke and manipulate.
Four young women are drawn one by one into a plan for revenge. Who among them is merely a pawn on the road to vengeance?
Unable to sever countless threads of affection, unable to escape romance, unable to let go of foolish fantasies, they only end up trapping themselves.
(Notice: The 2021 revision adds a new extra chapter and makes a few changes to some shortcomings. The female lead's old name was a little inconsistent, so I have standardized it as Leng Qingyan. In the old version, it was Leng Qiuyan, to distinguish between the two.)
Theme: The final version. Even if it gets banned, I will never revise it again.
I didn't know the author's idea could be so far-fetched. I agree with what was said above. The protagonist doesn't love anyone. Would someone who always uses his brain to calculate have any love left behind? She will only suspect that those around her are unfaithful, and she herself is the real promiscuous person. The women around her were just her tools. She hurt Luo Ting and Yue'er, showed a little guilt in a stylized manner, and then chased her own desires. She is not worthy of Luo Ting, nor is she worthy of Yue'er. As for Tianxin, it is a testimony to his dirty personality. On the contrary, Ruojin and she are the same thing. To be honest, giving him a false family reunion ending won't change her disgusting nature.
"Do you really think you are right? Since you met me, you have only asked for my body every time. When have you ever thought about my heart? Have you never forced me? In my eyes, you and he are the same, they both want my body!" Luo Ting was really sad. Why do you know such an irrational and cold-blooded person: "You care about me betraying you, but I don't care about how many women you spend the night with. You want to possess the only me, but I don't want to? Haha... Not only did I let you down, your selfishness also let me down!" What Luo Ting said is so good!!! Looking at the other heroines in this article, no matter how smart Ruo Jin is and how gentle Yue'er is, she is actually the image of a woman in the old society. Although she has some concerns about Qiu Yan's three wives and four concubines, she still has the attitude of marrying a chicken, marrying a chicken, marrying a dog, and following a dog. Ruo Jin tries his best to assist her, Yue'er was obedient to her and aborted the child without thinking. Moreover, Qiu Yan also had the same "big T-ism" as male chauvinism. He could hug her left and right, but he was not tolerant to the women around him. He was strict with others and lenient with himself. It was so unfair. Even in modern times, there are many examples. Some scumbags have broken the virginity of one girl after another. They are irresponsible and do not reject anyone who comes. They do not touch the wrong places and step on a few boats. This is actually another example of male society using their T status to oppress women. Luo Ting's character is more like an independent female image in modern society. She has her own thoughts and pursuits. She does not lose herself in love. Although she still becomes np later, it is also due to the general environment. It's not that NPCs are bad. If they are in love and are willing to do so, then there's nothing wrong with it. I just hope that it won't be like the feudal society where women have no pursuits or personalities of their own and only exist dependent on men. Qiu Yan is very powerful and has become the emperor, but most of the time he hides his identity as a man, and what he does is not much different from men. As a pure female man, Luo Ting made greater ideological contributions to the fight against male supremacy in feudal society than Qiu Yan! Luo Ting, a real woman who resisted the oppression of women in feudal society
I still like Luoer Yuan Luoting the most. She is kinder and less scheming than Ruojin. She is more mature and self-reliant than Yue'er. She is more sensible and less overbearing than the princess. In fact, she doesn't care so much about worldly opinions. For example, she confessed to her family at the beginning that she was insulted and decided not to tell Leng after giving birth to a child and marry a pregnant woman. She wanted to leave Leng because she saw Yue'er by Leng's side and she cared about being raped by Leng in the past. I admire this about her.
This novel, if I remember correctly. Has it changed a lot?
After reading it, I can only sigh... The author's writing style is really very good. His description of emotions made my heart tremble and make me sad... I couldn't come back to my senses for a long time after reading it. The writing is really good!!! I will save this book. Actually, I still have a lot to say, but I can't figure it out at the moment…
Although it was very touching, in the end when Qingyan saw Ruojin because of..., It shouldn't be broadcast anymore. . .
Ruojin is such a pity. Woohoo, I like Ruojin more than Qin.
The ending is too hasty and substandard
Why do I feel that the author wrote the last few chapters in a hurry. The context has no coherence.
The article is finally concluded. Why can't I see the latest comments? There are always old comments from several years ago... Σ(
