The Name of the Rose

Before reading this article, I saw many comments on the Internet saying that Yilan's character is too meek. After becoming Ovie, she lacks the refreshing sense of a heroine who can make a comeback against the wind, which seems unpleasant. After reading it, I disagreed. Maybe all the unhappiness is more like reality. I think Elayne's actions are very consistent with her character - an atypical aristocratic lady who is rebellious but loyal to her family under the harsh training of her father's army. The only madness in her life was dedicated to the love of her life. They met in a romantic relationship, without much interaction. The only tenderness was just a few moments in winter, reading by the fireplace, emeralds in the mine, dancing together at the slum dance, and falling in love on the bed in the bar. Why are they so devoted to each other, so engraved in their hearts that they can even burn themselves? I think maybe it's because they are a bright light in each other's dark lives. Figo is Ilan who accepts the rebellion in life, and Ilan is Figo who hates the outliers among the nobility. Her/his appearance breaks the dusty, stagnant days and burns into a firework that never goes out, beating deep in the heart. Speaking of Yilan, why didn't she reveal her identity to Lin Xi early, explain the situation to him, and lead her tribe to surrender to the new government early after becoming Ovi? Wouldn't this reduce casualties and make everyone happy? In such an era where technology and people's wisdom are extremely separated, a groundless rumor can arouse the anger and fear of ignorant people. A pair of red eyes can become a witch, let alone the resurrection of the dead? She couldn't say. What's more, Lin Xi didn't like her. The preciousness of life lies in its limitation. Such advanced and evil technology should be destroyed in Xiuwa and not be allowed to be treated by outsiders. Furthermore, she cannot surrender. She only possessed Owei's body, but her soul was still Lin Yilan. She was the princess of the Rose Lin family, and Lin's blood flowed in her soul. Lin Xi has a typical iron-blooded duke mentality. Surrendering is equivalent to destroying the century-old Lin family. It is impossible for him to be such a sinner. If persuasion fails, Yi Lanyi cannot let go of her people and can only fight for them. Why not find the nautical charts earlier? Because there was no end in sight before, Elan had no resources to spare due to the tight war situation. Why didn't Yilan reveal her identity and express her feelings after meeting in the imperial capital? Because she knows that people's interests go hand in hand. In Xiuwa, Figo asked her why she didn't inherit the position of Duke and change the sick society from top to bottom. She said that once she reaches a higher place, she is no longer her. Power makes people blindly lose themselves. Even if they are sober, it will constrain people. If you think too much, you will inevitably lose sight of one thing and lose another. She thought so then, and how could she not think so now. Ten years have passed since Figo arrived in Shona, and the insignificant rebel leader became a great military god in the eyes of the people as the consul of the New Deal in Seer. How could he still be the same person as before? How can people still be addicted to the fleeting glimpses and dreams of those days? And she understood that Shashan was the last territory of the Lin family and she must not give in an inch. What the New Deal needs is to dig out the last evils of the old aristocracy and calm the people's hearts. The two parties have long been fighting to the death. The world, situation and political power cannot make way for love, nor will the traumatized people's hearts shed tears for love. Thinking about it this way, be's ending turned out to be very good. When the world is at peace, heroes are still heroes. It's just too cruel to the two protagonists. Both people are crazy about love, but most of the time they are independent individuals, assessing the situation and putting the overall situation first. Such a rational soul is particularly charming. The story is not completely perfect, and the plot is not without flaws, but the overall reading experience is very good. There is so much I want to say but can't explain clearly, so let's stop here. Finally, I would like to express my feelings: No matter what era, enlightening people's wisdom is still the most important and difficult thing. The people are the main body of history. If we do not change our ignorant ideas, there will always be too many tragedies.

It's really good-looking, author. You can write such good articles in 10 years, but it's a pity that you're not very productive. It's really good-looking! I stayed up late to catch up.

The best part is when Figo is still Figo, everything after that is just to see a happy ending...

The part where they didn't meet each other was too long and too painful, and I liked He more. Be was really unnecessary. It just didn't make sense logically, and it couldn't express the sense of fateful tragedy. It was just for the sake of be aesthetics to prevent the two from recognizing each other. I unknowingly watched be and then he, which was very heartbreaking. It seemed that the former was the real ending. I can understand the dual endings that were popular in literature more than ten years ago. The relationship and character of the two people are very well written. It is purely because I felt heart attack in front of me, and I sincerely hope that there will be less cruel torture on the body of the heroine and the heroine. I have read a novel in which the heroine is an oiran who cannot help but accept guests, and I have seen the heroine's family win. No one in the novel about a man who was raped and married several times to make a living during his exile has such a strong sense of suffocation about physical abuse and broken limbs. I really beg the author. It's not that you can't accept the abuse of women, but just abuse women appropriately. Is what Yilan suffered is something that a human can endure? Please switch to the male protagonist.

It's very beautiful. I saw it on the browser a long time ago. It was my enlightenment in Western fantasy novels.

I cried so much. This book is the only one I have reread four or five times. It is beyond the scope of romance.

It's very beautiful, but I think Yilan is so miserable. I feel sorry for her. How could such a beautiful person suffer so much?

They have two little angels It's a little regrettable that Yilan is absent from the "Postscript"

Ten years later, I still love this book when I come back to read it. If someone asks me to recommend a romance novel, whether I can accept a Western fantasy setting or not, I would recommend The Name of the Rose. It's still great to read after ten years. I beg you, Zi Da, to publish a new book. It has been four years since I finished writing the last one. Can I publish a new book? QwQ
