“Xu Guiyan, just how stupid do you think I am, to let you deceive me so many times?”
In the struggle for the throne, the once-powerful Qin family made one wrong move and found themselves besieged on all sides. Everyone turned against them, and Qin Sili went from a favored son of heaven to the son of a convicted criminal.
His fiancée, Xu Guiyan, wrote a “Proclamation Against the Qin” and cut ties with him, fleeing as far from him as she could.
In the end, the entire Qin family was sent into exile.
The day before he left the capital, Xu Guiyan asked him,
“Qin Sili, do you plead guilty?”
His eyes full of fury, Qin Sili stood firm and refused to kneel. “Plead guilty?”
He let out a soft laugh, his eyes filled with disdain. “What crime have I committed?”
Seven years later, they met again in Liangzhou.
By then, he had long since lost his pride. He bowed and simpered. “The lowly commoner Qin Sili pays his respects to Magistrate Xu.”
Without a shred of dignity or backbone, Qin Sili lived like a dog.
And that dog had found himself a fine master: the powerful Gu family of Liangzhou.
Yet for someone so contemptible, Xu Guiyan actually turned against the Gu family.
“I was engaged to Qin Sili before. How can I let someone else take him to bed today?”
Without giving him a say, Xu Guiyan confined Qin Sili in the local government office.
“Xu Guiyan, why have you imprisoned me here?”
His voice was full of sorrow.
“I’m not like you. I only want to survive. The struggles of the court have nothing to do with me. If I had to go through what happened before all over again, I’d die. Please, let me live.”
At that moment, Xu Guiyan was stubborn and cruel.
“I won’t let you go. If we have to descend into hell again, I’ll die there with you.”
He believed her.
After the affair in Liangzhou came to an end, the Emperor summoned her back to the capital.
“You helped pacify the border, Qin Sili. Wait for me.”
He believed her again.
He waited alone in Liangzhou, forlorn and friendless, for her return.
Who could have guessed that half a year later, the news that reached him was that she had married someone else?
Note:
1. Set in an alternate Tang dynasty where both men and women can take the imperial examinations. Please don't nitpick the history. Happy ending.
2. First she pursues him, then he pursues her. Love and hate intertwine.
3. Updates every other day.
Theme: Win the hearts of the people for the people’s sake
The ending of the last chapter gave me a heart attack [heartbroken] and I felt like I was pushed down without being prepared [heartbroken] [heartbroken] Regarding the completion of this novel and the author's closing remarks, I want to say: Thank you, thank you for such an excellent creation, thank you for persisting in writing when the data is not impressive, thank you for creating such a good heroine and giving her such a wonderful life. It has been almost a year since I wrote this article. I started chasing [Gotou] on the afternoon of June 9th after the college entrance examination and watched it for about four days, and finally tied it. I felt so filled with emptiness and satisfaction. Then began the long journey of catching up on updates. You said thank you to readers for their company, so it's not you who is accompanying us. Like the spice of life, every day becomes more flavorful. After reading your article, in addition to the refreshing feeling directly brought about by describing legendary stories and complex emotional experiences in most novels [Maotou], there are also historical allusions, writing techniques, including the thoughts and insights you talked about, and some topics in the comment area, which broadened my horizons and enriched my knowledge. So no matter what, this is a very meaningful reading process. [Hug] [hug] See you next time. Let me tell you quietly, I relied on novels to get through the last period of my senior year of high school... [It's not that I want to read it, or I just want to hold on. After the exam, I can read County Magistrate, and I can read it countless times, and then imagine the happy scene of staying up late to read the novel after the college entrance examination 🌈 🌈] [heartbroken] [heartbroken] [heartbroken] From this, it can be concluded that the novel is really accompanying me hahahaha
I read it along with the serialization in the early stage, but it was interrupted during the period. I finished reading it in two days. Let me talk about my personal reading experience. The following discussion is only about "how to write", not "what to write":
1. Plot drama: I can logically understand what the author is writing and what he wants to express, but the writing is not very good. The key information always relies on dialogue to advance, and what he wants to express is forced to be said rather than developed through the plot. The real plot points are not elaborated in depth, but there are a lot of irrelevant push-pull and small activities. There is a feeling that big things are written in small letters and small things are capitalized, and the key points are missed. I always feel that it is a little bit lacking. If the article is compared to a tree, the direction of the plot is the growth direction of the branches, the persuasiveness of the plot is the thickness of the branches, different characters are the fruits on each branch, and the rest are all counted as leaves, then this article has too many leaves and the branches are too thin, but the frame of the branches is beautiful.
2. Emotional drama: The male protagonist is unattractive, the original sin. I didn't feel how miserable I was when I was living in Liangzhou, and I didn't feel how powerful I was when I was a powerful minister. Therefore, I couldn't empathize with the various emotions generated by "misery" and "power." In addition, in strong female novels, the setting where the male protagonist has/has had several women while the female protagonist has only one male protagonist is really difficult to overcome.
Finally, I wish the author will write better and better, and let the wonderful branches move forward, with stronger branches and more dazzling fruits.
Also, kindness and justice, which the teacher said are very valuable qualities, are easily seen as cheap qualities as personality background. I have talked about this in another novel before. It is because the loyalty and kindness of most people are blind inertia. When there is no need to face a choice, it is easy to maintain inertia. But when it really reaches that dangerous moment when one's own interests are violated, the evil nature of human nature will burst out. Just like "Anyone can become an excellent lover under the stimulation of hormones. That is the upper limit of human beings. I believe in the lower limit of human beings more than the upper limit." Take Sister Xu as an example. No matter how the situation changes, the people around her, or even the fate of the dynasty, she can maintain her justice and her responsibility as a minister. Not betraying is her bottom line. ❤️❤️
Dada has opened two new books. They are all about interesting themes. I have never read any of them. The second one reminded me of "Night at the Museum" when I read the introduction. The theme of the future of science and technology is also very fresh. 💪 💪 Looking at the pictures posted by Dada, I actually think of the kind of giant buildings I used to see when I was a kid. I like to use my imagination to imagine whether these buildings will turn into something weird at night when no one is around. Will it be cannibalism? [Hold your fists] [Hold your fists] Witness the people coming and going, going up and down, what would they look like if they had souls? Before I met Da Da, I could only imagine it in my mind. Now Da Da is going to write such an article. I am really happy ~ 🌈 🌈 ❤️ [Green Heart] 💜 [Pink Heart] Prepare to have a bigger brain before watching "The County Magistrate". It's good to have a good meal and not be afraid of being late 💪 💪 [Let me be healthy] [Rose]
Great, great, it's settled, yeah, yeah, "Trap" baby, here I come hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha so excited. All the emotions brought about by the ending and today's sad plot were swept away in one go. Prodigal son? ? How to position or define it, including whether x is a lot of fun to play. I feel like the male protagonist in the article I've already written doesn't look like him. But it doesn't matter. I accept everything the teacher writes. This is my unconditional trust in you after reading "The County Magistrate". Hahaha, in fact, one copy of "Nothing" is enough. OK, more comments. I also hope that teachers can interact more, I love you, I love you.
It's almost the end, I'm a little reluctant to leave it 😭 😭
DaDa's writing and layout skills are so strong. You can learn a lot by reading DaDa's articles. I even recorded some of them.
Quotations from great people
1. Don't be suspicious of people when you employ them, don't use them when you are suspicious.
2. Gaining rice's favor and fighting rice's hatred.
3. Don't hit the smiling person with your hand
4. The heart is separated from the belly
5. "I don't understand. What are you asking others to love you for? What's the point of all that worthless love showing from between their fingers?"
6. "Really smart people don't care about loyalty, they only care about direction."
7. If people are too crazy, they will suffer losses.
8. The principle that a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake has not changed for thousands of years.
9. But how to say it, the most difficult thing is to say, I like you but I am not involved.
10. "Once you see clearly, there is no way out."
11. The deconstruction of power is another kind of destruction
Regardless of whether the story ends with Haiyan Heqing or another kind of destruction, I believe it is the most appropriate. I wish you a happy day every day (I still have to write articles every day). My words are too short and I don't know how to express them. In short, my words give me a lot of strength. I have more thoughts about power, love, human subjectivity and sociality. I still hope that DaDa will get better and better.
The first one to finish the sofa! [Hold fist][Hold fist][Hold fist]
Now I can welcome September with joy, thank you for your hard work [dog head holding roses][dog head holding roses][dog head holding roses]
I read the whole article from beginning to end and saw a lot of unexpected sharings 🥺 🥺 I saw that DaDa said that I would be confused whether to delve into the high-pole genre or to explore and discover my own writing boundaries. It turns out that DaDa also has generalists and The tangle of experts 🐰 [cat head], but these are the worries of people who are too smart [holding fists] [holding fists] [cai dog] [cai dog] and the power relationship game in love. When I read the article before, I always felt that the heroines in Da Da's works are all equally powerful, excellent, smart, independent, and particularly sassy. . It turns out there are so many nuances in how the male protagonist is treated, alas. . I didn't even realize it [covering face and laughing and crying] [covering face and laughing and crying] He also added a lot of lists, music travel books, etc. . It turns out that cuckolding has been around since the Yuan Dynasty [cover your face to peek] [cover your face to peek] In fact, it feels like memorizing the answer first and then answering the question. I was so curious after reading the comment section that I couldn't help myself from reading it, and I was afraid that my brain was not deep enough and I didn't understand it. . I feel relieved to have finished writing it~ But I am still confident that after reading "The Trap", I should be 70-80% sure that I will be able to understand this book in depth. We still have to be full of positive hope for the future ~ [dog head holding roses] [dog head holding roses] It is mainly because of being big that I have such optimistic confidence [clasp hands] [clasp hands] [clasp fists] ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
When I saw Feng Zhujiao, she really suddenly appeared and then she reacted and remembered the previous plot. Then she said "Take me home" again, woo woo woo, and my nose suddenly felt sore [heartbroken][heartbroken][heartbroken] It's so uncomfortable, it hurts.
His Majesty the Son of Heaven is a woman, and the left prime minister who holds all the power in the government and the public is a woman. OK, OK! It's so transparent. The "phoenix" in "Feng Mou Jin Tai" not only refers to the heroine Keiyan, who is also the eldest princess. It can also mean opening up a new world for her own livelihood like Takeshiro, and becoming a woman with the right to speak to those in power. Hairpin skirt and crown, Feng Pavilion and Luan platform. Good! Simply good!
