In the past six months, I have watched the drama version of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" and "Ming Dynasty 1566" (I remember the first time I watched it when I was a kid, with my grandpa, and I just remember "a bunch of old men" chatting about the government's one-year expenditure on the treasury. Now that I'm watching it again, with the narration by the host of Bilibili, I really feel the charm of historical dramas!!). So I became addicted, and watched "The Fifteen Years of Wanli", "The Story of Zhang Juzheng", "The Story of Yu Qian" and "The Story of Wang Yangming" one after another. I really had mixed feelings... So now when I go to work and encounter difficulties, I always think of these histories and of these civil and military officials. [Covering face, laughing and crying]
Good-looking, good-looking, a thrilling story in a parallel time and space universe that is visually pleasing,!!!! Reminder
Today I read the fourth chapter of the third part of "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", the paragraph about Zhu Qizhen abolishing the harem and burial. In the first month of the eighth year of Tianshun, the emperor, who had experienced the Tumubao Incident, been imprisoned and was restored, left a legacy before his death. "I can't bear to use people to bury people. Stop this matter on your own and don't do it again in future generations." Although the number of words is very small, it ended the cruel system of five emperors, Hongwu, Yongle, Hongxi, and Xuande, which lasted for nearly a hundred years. Then Zhu Youtang appeared. His biological mother, Miss Ji, was persecuted by Concubine Wan Gui and secretly gave birth to the future emperor in the cold palace. Her short and miserable life was such that she could not even leave her name. In historical records, she is only "Ji". And her son, the emperor who later became famous for his generosity, named her Queen Xiaomu and built a mausoleum for her. But throughout his life, he could not find his mother's name. Looking back at "This Year's Spring", I suddenly understood the weight of these stories written by Chunyu better.
When sorting it out, I found that I forgot to post the "Jin Yi" chapter in the memo, so I will add it now. First of all, the beginning of this article is very attractive! "Li Jinyi is getting married tomorrow." Then she sat under the eaves in a daze. A very confused state. Chen's mother asked her what was wrong, and she said: "I have never seen him. I only know his name." This sentence hit me immediately. In ancient marriages, especially marriages between officials and families, many girls were carried into a stranger's home like this. You don't even know what he looks like, but you have to spend your whole life with him. Jinyi doesn't know how to face it. It was written by Chunyu in a very real way. I particularly noticed one detail. In the conversation between his father and his stepmother, it was mentioned that Wang Yanxu would be transferred to Taizhou to serve as a prisoner next month. In other words, not long after the marriage, the husband will leave. How did Jinyi feel when she heard this? From the later she said to Wang Yansu, "I don't want to disturb you, I'd better not go." It can be seen that she was actually relieved. She felt that it would be a good thing to spend less time together and more separation, as she would not have to face a stranger every day. The spring rain during the wedding was written very carefully. When she is ugly, she is called out to take a bath, make up, and put on wedding clothes. When Mother Chen read the part about "combing it all the way to the end", I felt a bit sore when I read it. Chen's mother's eyes got wet in the end. Jinyi forced a smile and said, "Wear a hijab." The words "forcing a smile" are a bit uncomfortable. Later, I only saw the back of Wang Yanxu riding a horse and guiding the sedan, "tall and upright." Just a back view. I don't know what he is thinking, what he looks like, or whether he is easy to get along with. I think Chunyu used the image of the back very well, it's the kind of "you can only see his back, you don't know what's waiting for you on the front". The wedding night is the climax of this article. Jinyi puts herself very low, as if as long as she admits all her mistakes and gets rid of all possible conflicts in advance, she will be safe, which makes people feel sad. But Wang Yanxu's reaction was completely beyond her expectation. He smiled first and said, "I didn't know that Madam could be so generous." Then he suddenly asked: "Do you have someone else in your heart?" This question was hilarious. It shows that Wang Yanxu cares. A person who really doesn't care about this marriage would not ask such a question. The moment he asked, I knew that he had expectations for Jinyi. What he was afraid of was not that Jinyi was weak or unvirtuous, but that she was unwilling to marry him. Later, when the two people had a stalemate, there was a small detail that was particularly touching. Wang Yanxu stood up and touched the teacup, which shattered on the floor. Jinyi blurted out: "Are you okay?" He didn't call her husband here, it was just an instinctive expression of concern. Wang Yanxu heard it, and he felt a wave of emotion in his heart. He simply said, "Don't be restrained, as long as you and I are compatible." He wanted Jinyi to relax and not feel inferior to others. But Jinyi was really impressed at the back. Wang Yanxu asked back, "How do you know you haven't seen her before?" Then he walked towards her, supported her who was not standing still, lowered his head, and said, "I've seen her before." Here, the full text ends. This marriage was what he wanted. He made plans, delivered messages, and entered into the relationship with Queen Mother Cao. He made all preparations just to marry this girl home! I particularly like the way Chunyu handles memories. It unfolds slowly through Wang Yanxu's perspective. The first time they met, at Xiangguo Temple, Jinyi Suchai Buyi was so preoccupied that she almost bumped into him. The second time we met, at the market, Jinyi walked through the crowd holding calligraphy and painting with a bright smile. They looked different twice, but Wang Yanxu remembered them both. He was sitting in the carriage, the curtains were blown up by the wind, and at that glance, his heart was moved. Then he said to Han Zhongyan, "Get ready for the gifts." The contrast between his confident calmness and the undercurrent in his heart. Hey-hey. Finally, I would like to talk about Chun Yu's writing style. Although this is Chunyu's first time writing ancient short stories, the writing is really steady and neither hurried nor impatient. The tediousness of the wedding, Mother Chen's reluctance, and only the back of the groom could be seen under the hijab. These details add to the atmosphere of ancient weddings. The dialogues between the characters are also well written. Every sentence of Wang Yansu has an overtone, and every sentence of Jin Yi is filled with careful testing. There is no ups and downs in the plot, but my heart is full after reading it. Reminds me of a sentence, the best love is not grand, but "I have seen you, I remember you, I chose you." This is probably what Wang Yanxu said about today's situation. After reading "Jinyi", I feel lucky for Jinyi. She married a man who understood her, cherished her, and was willing to take the initiative to go to her. Their story has just begun. There may still be separation from Taizhou and physical difficulties in the road ahead, but with this beginning based on "understanding", those future storms are so exciting to look forward to. I also hope that in real life, every cautious girl can meet someone who seriously sees her, remembers her, and chooses her.
Added some more I feel like this article is a bit sour. I like this kind of twisting, awkwardness, and warming it up from behind. Xinxin emotions. (I feel like my psychology is a little twisted) Chen Yang is sleeping in the opening chapter Xu Jing asked people not to disturb her when she was sleeping. It can be seen that Xu Jing is a careful male protagonist. When Chen Yang didn't go during breakfast, Xu Jing may have felt that Chen Yang was in a bad mood, and Chen Yang was perfunctory with his excuses. He knew in his heart that he just didn't respond directly, and slowly guided Chen Yang to explain the reason. Even if Chen Yang didn't know that it was a day off, he didn't show his dissatisfaction with his wife's indifference to him. He knows where to find the food that Chen Yang likes to eat, which shows that he is very attentive. He will take her to temple fairs to relax, and he will get to know her best friends. Guide her to slowly vent her dissatisfaction. When she notices that she is in a better mood, she will think about Chen Yang not having breakfast and suggest to eat something again. When I saw the middle part, I realized how much older the male protagonist was than the female protagonist. I kind of watched the female protagonist grow up. His teacher is his father-in-law. When he writes about Chen Yang's mischievous behavior when he was a child and he was blamed for it, you will find that Chen Yang should be a lively, cheerful and bright woman. She has experienced the death of her family and the marriage of her father. Suddenly, his mentality became mature and he became a hedgehog. He was on guard against everyone and kept things to himself. Even though she has been married for a long time, she is still not used to Xu Jing's touch, which shows that it is difficult to knock on the defensive door in her heart. Later, when Chen Yang said that there is no difference between one more person and one less person in the world, it was obvious that she was thinking of her father. Only she understands the painful feeling of losing a loved one, and others cannot empathize with it. Xu Jing understood what she meant at that time and guided her to look at the multi-faceted nature of things from another person's perspective. There are too many people in the officialdom who can't help themselves. When they are in a certain position and official position, they will do many things that are not understood. When I saw Chen Yang saying that it was okay not to be an official, I still felt worried about him and his position in the court. Thinking of her father's fate gave her a heavy blow, and she felt that as an official, no matter how high you were, you would still end up being dismissed. It seems that various identities in life depend on you, and you will do many things that others do not understand, but only you know that this is the best thing to do from this standpoint. When I am misunderstood, I always want to refute, and then I feel it doesn't matter anymore. At the end, Chen Yang looked at him and probably thought that if his father had not been in trouble, their process would have been more successful and they would not have been so hasty in getting married. He felt that the two of them liked each other. Will the second half of the chapter be about Xu Jing giving up officialdom for Chen Yang, or pacifying Chen Yang? Yang's father's case! Looking forward to it This year's autumn seems to have gone by in the blink of an eye, and before we can fully enjoy it, it will be winter. Today, I went to Jingyuan to relax while there were still traces of autumn. At that moment, my heart felt calm. It seemed that I had been thinking about how to calm myself down. This process was very painful. If I had to tear myself into pieces and piece them back together, then I would be indestructible. The style is still the same as before, and the calm words still bring me a lot of strength. The calm words are very powerful and warm. I really like your writing style. I hope you will continue to write more short stories. The ancient sayings in each article are very good, the meaning is deep, and the names are very nice. I look forward to the future long stories. My favorite passage from you: In fact, as long as you move forward and have your own beliefs and goals, you will not be afraid of failure, the progress of others, or jealousy. You will also bless others from the heart, because you have a higher goal in your heart, so you will not panic, and one day you will reach it. I hope we can all live like this passage, I wish you a happy life and a good sleep.
Spring rain, missing in one month, is like three autumns! [The comparison between some photos taken by Chun Yu in autumn and winter is included in Shu Yuan's super words. Ever since the night I watched "Chen Yang", and until now, I have had a bit of insomnia. When I close my eyes, I always think about the plot and historical background written by Chunyu. Especially the paragraph at the end of the article that mentions "the tomb area on the east side of Xiaoling Mausoleum" and "those who have nothing left to die" seemed to gently and cruelly bring me back to reality from the story. Although the book is written about fictional characters, the background is the real early Ming Dynasty, and that period of history in the early Ming Dynasty is heavy. So after writing the first book review, I decided to go to Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum this year. (The journey there was really twists and turns. I bought tickets, changed tickets, refunded tickets, sold out, and changed destinations, but luckily I finally arrived as I wished.) This time it was not a tourist-style visit and take photos, but a trip with the people in Chunyu's story to see where they once lived and may rest. This trip turned out to be heavier and more shocking than I imagined. At 6 a. M. On December 27, on my way out, I read the last chapter again. In Postscript 1, Xu Jing takes Chen Yang back to Changzhou and observes mourning for three years. Emperor Jianwen ascended the throne and began to cut down the vassal vassalage. After Zhu Di entered Beijing, he re-appointed Xu Jing as Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. The total number of words is less than two hundred, but like a trial, it presses back the inescapable fate in history. When I read the article, I felt sad, but when I went out and stood on the deserted street, I felt a kind of sadness. After entering Gate 3 of Xiaoling Mausoleum and walking forward for a while, you can see the long Shinto. There are not many tourists, and the wind blows the dead grass. I originally thought that "Stone Elephant Road" was just a name, but until I actually walked in, I realized that what I saw in front of me was not an elephant, but a whole group of stone animals with different postures: lions, stags, camels, elephants, unicorns, horses... After walking on the Stone Elephant Road, I turned right and headed towards the "Wengzhong Road" Shinto. There were two teams of military officers and two teams of civil servants. These statues were motionless, but silently guarding the tranquility of the mausoleum. Thinking of the North and South List case in the book. That year, the literati were turned over by the emperor because of the imperial examination turmoil. Some were sentenced to death, some were implicated, and some had their lives changed. But they have seen all the statues on this road. They have seen Zhu Yuanzhang establish a dynasty, have seen Emperor Jianwen lose his country, have seen Yongle's iron blood, and have seen the fate of generations. But they have never evaluated who is right or wrong, nor have they avenged anyone. Just like what Chunyu wrote, "The streets are bustling with people, but the scene of the colorful houses has not changed at all." I also think of a high school history teacher who once said that humans will revere history because we can never catch up with it, but it is always watching us. After walking the Shinto, I found an episode on the way to Wenwu Fangmen. An elder was writing "Qingyun Zhi" written by Xu Xiake (in doubt) on the ground. "No one helped me Qingyun Zhi, so I walked on the snow to the top of the mountain." Life is short, and you have to spend it in your own way. Mutual encouragement. When we got here, it was just dawn. The first ray of sunshine in the morning shines on the high vermilion wall of Fangcheng Minglou, glowing with golden light. The palace gate was larger than what was seen in the photo, so some people instinctively took a half step back. I heard the conversation between my grandfather and grandma next to me. My grandfather said, "The Xiaoling Mausoleum is one of the largest imperial tombs in ancient China. Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, also built the Changling Mausoleum based on it." The lives of Chen Yang and Lu Ying were destined to be surrounded by such a wall. Whether they are daughters of ministers, candidates for concubines, or people involved in the aftermath of the No. 1 Scholar case, their fates are determined by the power behind this wall. As for Chen Yang's father, he arranged his daughter's marriage in advance before Zhu Yuanzhang issued the order. How can it not be regarded as a kind of awakening? Only by standing here can we truly understand how heavy this kind of awakening is. Later, I also went to experience VR. After putting it on, when those underground tombs were revealed one by one, my heart sank to the bottom. The interior of the underground palace is cold, deep, and lightless. The restored coffins are all arranged, but no names can be seen. "Those who have nothing to do will die." Chen Yang's words, "I don't think I have to take my concubines with me to be buried with him," suddenly became harsh in the darkness of VR. Those women who were forced to die were not much luckier than Lu Ying and others in the book. It is even conceivable that if Chen Yang had not been betrothed to Xu Jing by her father in advance, she would probably be swallowed up by the times like those women. Nose is sore. After coming out, I sat on a stone platform along the road and felt the cold wind blowing. Suddenly, she felt that if Chen Yang were here, she would probably remain silent for a long time. If Lu Ying were here, she might smile bitterly and say, "That's the way the world is." If that concubine Shu, her tomb is probably not far away from her feet. Although we know that they are not real people, many nameless women are actually buried here. At this moment, I not only remembered them, but also felt heartbroken for them. Chunyu wrote in the postscript, "I feel sad when I think that the place where they are buried is at my feet." On the way out of Ming Xiaoling, I really realized how rare the ending written by Chunyu was. Being able to escape the shadow of power for a few years is a blessing in itself. Chen Yang can live, marry the person he wants, give birth to his son Xu Zhen, and live in peace for a few years. These are the happiness that too many women cannot get in their lives. When I get home, I look back at today's photos and compare them with those taken during the spring rain in autumn. The statue of the god continues to be silent, and the red wall continues to be mottled. But leaves grow and fall, and people come and go. There is an indescribable feeling in my heart. "Writing allows people to see their names, and history allows people to see their destiny." Thanks to Chunyu for writing these women's stories. They are not people remembered by history, but they have a complete and real life in Chun Yu's writings. Reading their stories, you will feel sorry for them because they cannot help themselves, and you will also respect every choice they make in silence. I will remember those years that were gently carried away and the affection that was suppressed in my heart. Although I am a native of Nanjing, I have not visited many Nanjing attractions since I went to school, and there are even fewer attractions that require tickets. I couldn't sleep last night, so I was lying on the bed chatting with my mother. Because of Chun Yu's short story, I wanted to go to Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum tomorrow morning. He also told her some stories about Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum and short stories about Chunyu. Ask her if she still remembers the last time I went to Ming Xiaoling Tomb? Mom said she was very impressed. The last time I was taken there was in the summer shortly after the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum was officially declared a World Heritage Site. Twenty years passed by and I was filled with emotion. Thank you again Chunyu for bringing such a meaningful short story. The last little digression o(^▽^)o After visiting Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, we also stopped by Pilu Temple. My eldest brother is about to take the college entrance examination. Please give me some luck in taking the exam. I also wonder if Chunyu's younger brother will also take the high school entrance examination next year? Time flies so fast, I wish him all the best and everything he wishes. I feel more nervous than my own exam...
There were a lot of things going on some time ago, so I was impatient, so I didn't watch it. After reading it, I have a lot of ideas, but I don't know where to start. Suddenly I watched it again tonight and finally knew what I wanted to say. So I wrote two paragraphs. The name has been changed several times, but it's not the familiar Weibo name, haha, it's a double A. Reading the story of Chen Jue and Xu Jing in "This Year's Spring" always reminds me of the things people talk about relationships nowadays. Although hundreds of years have passed, the clothes have changed, and the house has changed, the subtle pull between people, the energy to find a balance between "reality" and "intention" seems to have never changed. You see, the marriage between Xu Jing and Chen Jue is not simply about loving each other to death, but that their backgrounds, families, and even timing are just right for each other. Chen Jue married him because of family arrangements and to escape old pain; Xu Jing married her because of her responsibility to her mentor and the consideration of taking advantage of the situation. This is more like some people nowadays. When they meet someone with "matching conditions" at the right age, they are not passionately in love, but they feel that they can live together, and they take the next step. The state of "get married first, fall in love later" or "slowly develop feelings in marriage" has existed in ancient and modern times. In the story, Xu Jing slept in the study room for three months after her marriage. Nowadays, there are newlyweds who are busy with work, and their relationship is weak, and it takes a long time to warm up. Xu Jing's kindness to Chen Jue is also very interesting. He provides a stable life, tolerates her temper, remembers her preferences, and accompanies her to relax. Nowadays, this is definitely the "ideal type" in the eyes of many people: stable, materially based, and able to take care of others. But this kind of goodness sometimes comes with a "condescending" sense of control. If he says he'll take you out for a walk, you'll probably have to go; if he arranges for you to meet old friends, just accept it. The "uncomfortableness" Chen Jue felt in it was probably like what some girls say now: "He is very good to me and arranges everything, but I always feel that it is his rhythm and does not ask me what I really want." In modern love, we pay more and more attention to "equal dialogue" and "spiritual resonance." Xu Jing's "I am good for you" dedication sometimes becomes a kind of gentle pressure, making the other person feel that their own space has been compressed. And the "White Moonlight" Chen Xiao in Chen Deji even pokes at a pain point of modern people: How should people who hold the past in their hearts face the life in front of them? She is married to Xu Jing, and her body is in this relationship, but part of her heart is still in the past, mourning for her old lover who was swallowed up by the times. Is this like some people, because a deep old relationship did not end well, even if they start a new relationship, they are always a little absent-minded and unable to fully invest? Xu Jing's jealousy and faint coercion when she noticed this, and her obsession that "you are here with me, your heart must be here too" are also the source of many people's insecurity in relationships nowadays. We all hope that we are each other's "only" and "favorite", and it is intolerable for our partner to have a point of comparison in his heart. What impressed me the most was the awkwardness between them about not saying anything directly. Xu Jing was busy and didn't come back to sleep. Maybe it was because she was really busy, or maybe she had an awkward moment that night and didn't know how to deal with it. Chen Jue obviously noticed it and muttered in his heart, but did not take the initiative to ask. Two people rely on guessing, testing, and physical intimacy to maintain and confirm their relationship. This is so true. Many couples are like this now. They can send thousands of messages on their mobile phones, but they can't express their real core feelings and concerns. They are afraid of appearing pretentious or causing conflicts, so they silently deduct points in their hearts, or use silence or tantrums to convey signals. In the story, a temple fair and a bowl of soup became opportunities to break the ice. Nowadays, it may take a movie, a trip, or even a big fight to get rid of the blocked words. After all, "Spring This Year" made me see that no matter what era, love or marriage cannot be summed up by a simple word "love". It is mixed with the sand of reality, the dust of power, the shadow of the past, and the burrs of the two people's respective personalities. Xu Jing and Chen Jue both worked hard within their own limited scope. One learned to let go while giving, and the other tried to find himself in the process of acceptance. The process was bumpy and not perfect at all. This actually makes me feel a little more normal about my current feelings. After seeing too many "perfect love" templates on the Internet, I tend to feel anxious and feel that something is wrong here and not enough there. But look at Chen Jue and Xu Jing, they are so bound by the times and have so many unspeakable difficulties, but they are still trying to get through it, slowly developing some complex warmth that belongs to them. What about us? Today, when we have more freedom of choice, perhaps what we should learn is not to look for a flawless script, but to accept the "imperfect reality" of relationships. In concrete life, like repairing an old piece of porcelain, patiently, day by day, manage your own warmth with fine lines.
It's so fast. I've finished another book. I'm looking forward to the next short story. This time I met Jin Yi, Shen Ning, Zheng Jiang, and Chen Yang. I really like the concept of this book. Women can also be seen, and the power contained in their gentleness can be seen. They are tough, calm, like water, able to accommodate all things, and have their own wisdom. They are not limited to the house. From "Once Upon a Time in the West City" to "He Laughed" and then to "There's Plenty of Time", I particularly like the line "The days are still very long, and there is plenty of time." This work made me think a lot and see love, but more importantly, it made my heart very powerful. It also made me more open-minded in the face of failure in the college entrance examination. Maybe sometimes we take one thing too seriously, and maybe if we look at it after a while, it is just a very small hurdle. Later, the reprint of "Under the Begonia Flowers" came out, and I have a very deep memory. This was the novel I read late at night in high school (hahahaha). Zhou Yi, who was sensitive, kind, stubborn and tenacious, gave me endless strength during that period. Zhou Yi was very ordinary and had no buf. F's aura deepened, but such an ordinary but heartwarming story made me more determined. Sensitivity is not necessarily a bad thing. People should look inward, "Which one do you choose between what you should do and what you want to do?" This question helped me to strengthen my direction later on. May we always be loved, and may we always love ourselves. When it comes to "The Sound of Sound" and later "My Precious", the accompanying sentence is "Remember to move forward, you are free." I always trapped myself in the same place, trapped in my own mistakes, constantly struggling, reflecting, assuming whether I can do better, regretting why I am not doing so well, and constantly experiencing internal friction. The moment I saw this sentence, it suddenly dawned on me, "If you understand the past, you can't admonish it; if you know what's coming, you can pursue it." The past is determined, and the future is possible. No matter which direction you go in, you are moving forward. Maybe this thing is a bad thing for me now, but at some point in the future, this thing can also become a good thing. I am free, I can choose everything I want, do what I want, and do it boldly. Finally, "Crossing the Sea" came, and I loved the sentence "Between people, you warm me, and I warm you." Because I fell in love with your words, I met a very good you and a very good friend Shu. So, Chun Yu, thank you for warming me with ordinary but extraordinary works one after another, giving me strength when I am helpless, and guiding me in the direction when I am confused. Looking forward to the next work, I hope we are in good health and have a good sleep.
So sometimes I really love this world
I really appreciate the ancient feeling and write a long article about marriage first and love later in ancient times◉‿◉
