Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I finally understand why the prince did this, and why the author asked Suzaku to mention the allusion to the Shadow Queen earlier! Rather than saying that Suzaku insinuated that Xiaoyan was the Queen of Shadows, it would be better to say that Ye Mingyu was actually the poor man. In fact, it can be seen from this allusion. The most important thing is the background and timing: the existence of the Queen of Movies is out of the need to bring down the Prince Regent and divert the Prince Regent's attention; it is really nonsense to say that Xiaoyan is blocking the gun for Ye Mingyu. When was Ye Miaoyu called back? He was called back when he was deeply suspected by the emperor in the East Palace and was in danger. Although calling him back was necessary for him to make suggestions, was it not to divert the emperor's attention? As Yun Lan said, Xiaoyan has become the prince's biggest weakness; Xiao Jingyan himself admitted that Xiaoyan is his discriminating heart. At this time, if one's weakness is exposed like a snake being held seven inches away, Xiaoyan's safety can best be ensured only by letting Xiaoyan escape from the whirlpool of the fight and weakening his existence. This is exactly what the prince did later. He didn't want Xiaoyan to advance or retreat with him when he was banned from the East Palace, and he didn't want Xiaoyan to be threatened by his life, so he said that the time on the carriage was the saddest few hours for him. But who can say that what he did was not right? After all, his father wanted to kill Xiao Yan before he died. If the emperor's attention was not diverted at this time, who knew how much threat Xiao Yan would be faced? He is really similar to Ye Xuanji, even the methods of protecting people are so similar. One brought Ye Mingyu over, and the other married directly into the East Palace, all in order to protect the person he loved, and he didn't even have time to worry about whether the person he liked would be sad... They were both people who had plans for each other, but didn't know how to express love, but how do you ask people like them who were born in power to say it? Therefore, only Ye Xuanji knew that "His Highness is very worried about Xiao Yan." This time's plan really showed the prince's sinister nature and deep-seated arrogance. He completely regarded Ye Miaoyu as a tool to take advantage of him (I kind of sympathize with Ye Miaoyu...). It can be said that the more attention Ye Miaoyu attracts, the more firepower he attracts. Only people like Xiao Yan and Ao Ji can understand such heart-wrenching behavior... Only Xiao Yan, even if he understands, will not move forward and only wants to advance and retreat with the prince; only Ao Ji will have such a will to break into the palace regardless of it. Who can say that these two pairs are not a perfect match? Even though I know this, I still feel that this little statement is particularly aggrieved... Ah, His Highness, the Crown Prince, will punish you and Xiao Yanfa ten times! ! ! Finally, I really want to express my gratitude to the author, she is amazing! Precisely because the perspective of the story has always been unfolded through Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan was disturbed and even the readers did not guess the truth. Even the readers felt that Ye Miaoyu's return was related to the prince's feelings. What about other people in the court, let alone the emperor? Except for Xiao Yan, everyone has questioned the prince's sincerity... None of the characters violates their personality. This is the author I have seen who has complete control over the story and a thorough understanding of the characters. I really hope to see the author's next Danmei article (I'm so sad, please come back, madam... This is my first time to write a long review)
Ah, I'm here to write a long review, [with spoilers]! ! ! I think this story is very interesting to me. There are no special points to discuss, just my random thoughts. You don't have to read it. You can also report it if you don't like it. I just want to share my views and insights. It took me about two or three days to read this book. The insights are profound, but there is only one sentence: "There are a thousand and one Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand readers." I have to say that this novel is really well written. First of all, the writing style is really comfortable. It is a little more comfortable than most novels I have read. I saw it through a tweet on xhs. In the first of the first three chapters, Xiaoyan attracted me as soon as he appeared. I like this character very much. He is very clean and has the temperament of a teenager that everyone yearns for (only in novels). I can only say that the youthful feeling described is very good. I personally don't mind it. I don't want to spoil the story, so after reading the first three chapters, I read Little Red Book and found out that everyone thinks that the relationship between the prince and his ex in this book has been criticized by many people. This is also the sticking point, but I don't think it is what they said. At least after reading the whole article, I don't think there is emotion between them. Of course, everyone has different opinions. I recommend you to read the paragraph comments when reading. Some teachers have written very good paragraph comments. Many teachers have written a lot of insights about him and the prince. Probably, compared to other people in the East Palace, Xiaoye is a friend who grew up together, a child, or a family member, but for the prince, he can be regarded as teaching the prince a lesson, too. The prince's arrogance, Ao Dad said (roughly) "There is no shortage of good things in the royal family, so they are not merciless in robbing good things." The prince's arrogance put Xiaoye Xiang between life and death, or between leaving and death, and also made his mother Once again, he was humiliated. The prince may not have understood love at that time. Maybe he just had a budding affection and was discovered before it bloomed. The prince was very arrogant, so arrogant that he wanted to challenge the imperial power. He may only regard the person on the dragon throne as Father, he wanted to be the emperor, so his arrogance also made him see everything clearly. Xiao Yexiang chose to leave in order to live. If he didn't leave, he would die. So the prince might be angry, but in the end he understood everything and was relieved. Xiaoyan is the prince's home and the one who brings peace to the prince. Xiaoyan is like a gun or a knife that cuts open the East Palace and the prince's doors and windows, allowing the prince to breathe and become a human being again. Later, I borrow the interpretation of a teacher from Duan Ping again: Yun Lan thinks or does not choose Xiaoyan because Xiaoyan is a variable, because everyone follows the prince. , Because the prince can be a wise king, have the appearance of a wise king, and can bring everyone a peaceful and stable life. The prince does not need to be a human being, he does not need to have seven emotions and six desires, he only needs a wise king. And Xiaoyan made the prince become Xiao Lu or Xiao Jingyan, he made the prince feel what he was protecting, and allowed him to have seven emotions and six desires again. This is my opinion. I think Xiao Yexiang is just a tool person. His proportion in this article is quickly forgotten, and it is not as serious as what is written on xhs. As for Sihongtang, I can't tell. I can only say that this is the place where Xiaoyan has lived for a long time since entering the palace, and it can also be regarded as a witness to their togetherness, so I think it's okay. Maybe because I am just a spectator, just a reader, and I prefer the stories they bring to me. Then let's talk about the things that make Xiaoyan grow up slowly. Xiaoyan's growth line is very obvious and clear. Xiaoyan was naive when he first entered the East Palace. Later, he fell in love with the prince and was jealous of Xiaoye Xiang. Then he understood the power and stick to his original intention. Finally, he ended up looking for a chance to survive and then became a general on the border. I think Xiaoyan's growth line is not slow. It's very interesting. Everyone in the East Palace, at the beginning, only Father Ao was the best to him. There was a description in the article that when Xiaoyan entered the East Palace, he entered the center of power. Clean people would be torn into pieces if they entered, but the people in the East Palace did not want to care about him. Only Father Ao took care of him and led him to survive in the whirlpool of power later. He understood tactics and learned the art of war. Everyone in the East Palace later also tried their best to teach Xiaoyan, and the prince was also paving the way for Xiaoyan, "Ao Ji taught him to move forward indomitably." , Ye Xuanji taught him how to draw fire from the bottom. He also learned Luo Heng's way of waiting for the opportunity, also learned Rong Hao's benevolence, learned how Yun Lan manipulated people's hearts, and most importantly, learned how to learn from Ye Xuan. Ji's determination to fight against the odds finally made him as changeable as Jamel Xiao." In the end, he followed his faith in his heart. Even though he experienced darkness, he still stuck to his original intention. It was very precious. I think what the prince also liked was Xiaoyan's spirit and clean eyes, so he fell in love at first sight and felt pity for Xiaoyan. He met the succubus [three-flowered cat head] and was seduced by the prince just after leaving the novice village. It was so cute. Then let's talk about everyone in the East Palace. Xiao Rong and Helian are really close to each other. They can almost be read in a separate book. I really like this couple. I like them so much. I want to read their fanfics, and then Ao Daddy. Who said that Ao Daddy is dead? You can't read other people's spoilers in advance while reading a book. , And some people say that Ye Xuanji jumped off a building to die in love, but in fact it was not the case. Father Ao eloped with Ye Xuanji, and they lived a good and happy life. God knows when I saw Father Ao die, and when I watched Father Ao break into the palace three times, I thought it was Ye Xuanji who was dreaming. In the dream, Father Ao came to pick her up, and I couldn't understand what I was seeing. Only later did I find out, and was relieved that Ao Daddy was really not dead, and they were really happy. [Come on] [Come on] It also describes a lot of plots of intrigues, but I actually didn't understand it a bit, and I didn't understand the deep meaning. But after reading the commentary, I understood that the prince really loves Xiaoyan, and his love can be taken care of. He can handle the situation in the whirlpool. Xiaoyan is very protective of Xin, (let's not worry about how the whirlpool came about [Three Flower Cat Head]) Xiaoyan's biggest grievance may be that the prince gives him a little sense of security in front, which makes Xiaoyan jealous [Cat Head]. In fact, I am also very confused, Professor It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. Why not hand him over so that he can protect himself? It was later found out that Xiaoyan didn't know anything. It was good to be clean and it was easy to get out of it. But in the end, it was discovered that Xiaoyan had seen the darkness inside. I also saw the real Xiao Jingyan, who was still clean, so I boldly gave him extra lessons. In fact, the prince may also feel that Xiaoyan gave him little sense of security, which made the prince a little worried about gains and losses, but I have to say that the young couple is really sweet. Finally, the portrayal of female characters in the article is also very good, especially Yun Lan and Ye Xuanji. These two people use power to the extreme and are really ruthless, especially Ye Xuanji. The men in the Ye family are all cowards. Ye Xuanji single-handedly controls Ye Xuanji. The family is once again on the edge of power and comes into contact with power again. I have always been thinking, if the prince really joins forces with Ye Xuanji, this novel will not exist (•́⌄•́๑)૭✧, of course, I am just thinking about it. In the end, I can only say that the value of a book does not lie in the review, but in the moment you open it. Only when you really read it will you know that everyone has different opinions. This book can indeed be tied for first place in my ranking of Machiavellian novels. It is really good-looking, and I couldn't bear to part with it [crying], but fortunately, the ending is beautiful, romantic, and unforgettable. You will have a different experience every time you watch it. These are just my thoughts. I hope it will not affect your perceptions and opinions. Goodbye readers. A reader who enjoyed this story
I thought that some of the poems in the article were written by the wife herself, such as Rong Hao's sentence "Raise chickens and let them eat, and cook the chicken fat." Later, when I looked it up, I found out that it was Yuan Mei's poem. There are really many of these in the Youth Game, such as Sun Quan angrily slashing the corner of the table, the blond thief, Liu Xiahui sitting still in his arms, Gui Guzi plotting, and there are many "cow dogs" who borrowed the Tao Te Ching from Rong Hao's mouth. "The Tao is very famous, the name is very famous"... When I read it for the first time, I really swallowed it wholeheartedly, and I watched the interactions between the protagonists. I just skipped the emotional line if I couldn't understand it. I ruminated on it several times and discovered these overlooked details. It shows that my wife has a profound literary background and the application of these classics in Shounenyou is very powerful👉This person even bought a copy of the Tao Te Ching and Shi Ji because he couldn't understand the allusions and started to study history [covering his face and crying] [covering his face and crying] There are also people who are scolding each other about being tortured emmmm. I personally think that there is no big problem whether it is the main CP or the deputy CP. Goose goose [cover your face and laugh and cry] But I think the author wants to express that it is not just "gay men" and "danmei" that we are looking at. The reason is just like you can't watch Liu Bei abandoning his wife and children to escape without looking at the entire situation of the Three Kingdoms. She is playing a big game of chess - there are court affairs and frontier fortresses. The royal family is a pawn, but fortunately there is Xiao Lu. This character is perfectly created, as perfect as a god. This is probably the image of the most ideal ruler. Let's talk about the four companion readings of Wen Zhi and Wu Gong. Is Xiao Yan a group favorite? . I feel like it's a weird word to use. In other words, it should be that everyone is supporting and witnessing Xiaoyan's growth, which is a very typical group portrait article. Ao Ji Ji, the eldest son Ao is really high-spirited, let me force two (or three) to break into the palace. He actually sees clearly, but he doesn't have Rong Hao's temper and energy to do it. Seeing the ignorant Xiao Yan, I really hate iron and steel and tell him that "the emperor has no intention." In fact, he has seen through the helplessness of those years and pulled Xiao Yan to prevent him from hitting the wall. Ao Ji's temperament (Zhang Zi) is not suitable for court. Personally, I think his ending is very good - you have to pay something to escape, and he succeeded. Rong Hao, I feel that it is not an exaggeration to describe him as the young master Wen Ruyu. He seems to be a very typical civil servant, proficient in the Four Books and Five Classics, and speaks well, but he is not that rigid. He is very tactful in the world of people, but he happened to meet that "damn blond and blue-eyed thief" who can make him angry. The sexual tension between the two is really [Applause] Yu Yanran's name should be a variation of "Yan Ran has not yet been reined in, but there is no plan". I realized after I swiped the screen that he is a young general, but he is still a young man at heart. He is a novice in the workplace who does not engage in workplace relationships. He does need a trial, just like an iron sword that needs to be tempered to become sharp. Then there is Yan Junyu. He is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart. He is the little calf who dares to hit the tree. He is the kind of person who always sticks to his own position, just like the flow of people moving in the same direction, but he has the courage to tell himself in his heart, "No, they are wrong, I have to go my own way." He is like a little sun, as wise as a fool. Returning to his original nature, but that's it, so no matter how stubborn he is, Yan Junyu is always Yan Junyu. No matter how the outside world changes, he will stick to his true heart, so Xiao Lu can see people very accurately. Ye Xuanji only saw this later, so she understood why Xiao Lu fell in love with him. The world is like a chess game, everyone is a chess piece, the central and local governments check each other, the power relations among ministers are complicated, and people's hearts are unpredictable, but there is such a person who can stand in front of you with a pure sincerity, and you can't see any calculation. This is simply looking for a needle in a haystack, so everyone will appreciate Xiao Yan, and I don't think these can be summarized by a simple "group favorite". The character creation here is the same perfect divinity as Xiao Yan. This is the ideal emperor who understands his general. There is also Li Daoyong, who may be regarded as a supporting role. Oh my god, I did n't play until I found out that his prototype is Liu Yong, Yanliuhuaxiang, and wrote lyrics. I didn't see much at the time. After thinking about it, I realized that I really have limited knowledge. I am really ashamed. I think the author is actually filling in the meaning of history. After all, it was such a pity that the prime minister in white was a pity [crying] At the same time, the author portrays women very well. Ye Xuanji leaps away from the shackles of identity, the female palace is allowed to stand in a high position of power, Luo Qiyun disguises herself as a man (I feel like Hua Mulan is used here) and makes many military exploits... Women are not foils, they each have their own light and shine. This is the so-called Datong [dog head holding roses]
After the third brush, I loved Xiaoyan very much and was hurt by Xiaoyan; the second brush was in better condition than the first brush, and I felt the charm of gentle beauty; the third brush, after so many years, felt the pain of the tree again. After four brushes, I feel like there will be new surprises waiting for me! It would be a pity if the readers outside don't read it because of the so-called "White Moonlight"! This Bai Yueguang is not only Xiao Yan's "misrecognition" when he was young, but also the reader's misrecognition. In fact, his sense of existence is quite low. The long-awaited return to the East Palace and waiting for him to return are nothing more than that. In fact, most of the foreshadowing was caused by the concern of Xiao Yan, the companion readers of the East Palace. Our prince is so anxious [crying] Ye Mingyu is not even irreplaceable as the counselor of the East Palace, and he can't be a bit of Bai Yueguang~~ Helian described Master Rong as "exquisite porcelain, fragile silk and satin, and the most precious shackles in the world, which can tame wild beasts." Xiao Lu did the same to Xiao Yan, placing it on the top of his heart, feeling helpless and cautious. In this relationship, Xiao Yan seemed to be strategizing, but in fact, he was always afraid, so afraid that he could only wait, wait for Xiao Yan's decision, and wait for Xiao Yan to come home. Fortunately Xiaoyan is a flame! Xiaoyan was injured. She was so sad that she curled up behind Luo Heng's piano table and fell asleep. She was so sad that she couldn't climb down from the eaves, but none of this could stop Xiaoyan from continuing to burn! Therefore, compared to Xiao Yan's admirers (the timid Ye Mingyu and Linglong who mistook admiration for love), Xiao Yan's admirers are also braver and more determined [Dog Head] His Highness the Crown Prince can indeed drink a bottle of vinegar.
It must have come from God... Every step of the way was beyond my expectation. Everyone wrote a special three-dimensional character that was very full... I have already imagined what this group of people looked like at that time... The feeling of being unable to help but trying my best was written very well... It is definitely the best book I have ever read in this genre... No one actually thought of a song in the middle of reading. The most poisonous hatred in the world is fate but no separation, but it's okay. Although there are regrets, everyone is very good. At that time, I thought Ao Ji was dead and cried all the time, but it was okay🥹The Seventh Prince was also written very well, although the plot was not so corresponding, but it was really good. He tried his best to help Xiaoyan. The tsundere kitten came. Xiaorong and Helian were also very, very good at forgiving me for my lack of vocabulary. When I asked whether it was Master Rong or him, I felt particularly... He still has selfishness in the righteousness of his family. Tiao gave me the impression that he is someone who knows how to tolerate but sometimes can't help feeling. But he is really good to Xiaoyan. Although he is sometimes forced to do some things that may hurt Xiaoyan, he also tries his best to protect Xiaoyan. The name Ao Yun includes Ao Ji and Xiao Yan. Xiaoyan likes two people the most. Ye Xuanji is also very powerful. She can see through so many steps. How much willpower is required? Yun Lan is also very powerful. A girl has her own principles, although sometimes she can make people angry, but this is also one of her charms. Each pair is particularly well written. The story of Li and Luo should also be very colorful. The story frame connects everyone, but underneath is the emotion. People in various positions are forced or take the initiative to do things that are very natural. It seems that this person really exists, and the emotional lines are also very natural. The plot line is even more amazing. It feels very compact and interlocking. Every step is unexpected but reasonable. With the plot of Bai Yueguang, I think the setting is more perfect. As a young prince, he was young and frivolous. The two people who were like confidants were favored by the prince at that time. This feeling came naturally. Although Xiaoyan did not get his youth and frivolity, he got him. The regret is inevitable, but the important thing is now. I really like the feeling of writing in big letters. The writing is very good. From the book, it can be seen that the teacher writes with great care. It's true that I feel sorry for Xiaoyan, but I also lament that Tiao's strong spiritual core and charisma, including everyone in the East Palace, have their own charms. Wenzhiwu Gong is worthy of being a carefully selected companion. In fact, the emperor also loves flirting, but he still can't withstand the temptation of power. People's desires are getting bigger and bigger. This ending is inevitable... The teacher really wrote it very well. It deserves to be called Chang'an Youth Tour. The Chang'an of teenagers is the center of power. There is also the sincerity and frivolity of teenagers in power.
After reading this book, I will feel very, very sad after reading this book. These people plot against him, insult him, treat him differently, clique him, and never give him peace of mind even if they know that he has a grudge in his heart. If I were Xiaoyan, I would not forgive anyone except Ao Ji. But Shou didn't take all of this seriously. His subjectivity meant that he would not deviate from his own heart. He had his own things to do. The youthful spirit will be humiliated but will not disappear. I admire him.
Congratulations to the author, The Next Door, for being adapted into a TV series at Noon! In fact, when I read Chang'an, I thought that "Little Building" might be adapted into a TV series. I didn't expect it to be another one, hahaha. I hope that I can go further and further on the road of writing. By the way, can I write another ancient novel? I really want to read it. . . . Ahhhhhh!
This article I read a long time ago was considered to be my top of the year along with another one. However, after a few years, no rising star caught my eye. Chang'an Youth Tour is still top, so I will read it again another day! I also hope that the author can produce new ancient films, oh Nei Gai🙏🏻
The plot in it is really good. I feel like I have become more knowledgeable after watching it. I really like Rong Hao and Helian, and I also want to watch their extra episodes.
Although the ending is very happy, I still feel a little sentimental. I just think that their youthful friendship is so good and touching. Now that they have their own responsibilities, they can't just laugh and play carefree [crying] I want to buy Osmanthus fragrans to share the wine, but in the end it's not the same as Youth Travel.
