It reminded me of a story about why child stars often fail to transition into adult roles. The answer was that audiences are still used to seeing them as children, so suddenly they're playing pregnant characters, which feels quite disjointed. Speaking of which, the child star I mentioned back then doesn't act in realistic dramas anymore; he's now acting in romantic period dramas. After acting in so many of those dramas, people have forgotten he was a child star. - I don't feel quite used to it.

   It started in 2019 and will end at the end of 2024, or maybe 2025? Stories from the reign of Emperor Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty, featuring female officials. After reading this book, I realized that the play and film "Dragon and Phoenix Inn" originated from the story of Emperor Zhengde and Li Fengjie, and it also has a similar background to the story of "Going South of the Yangtze River." Whether it's true or false doesn't matter. What I mean is, "Going South of the Yangtze River" isn't a story from the Qing Dynasty; it's just borrowing from a previous dynasty.

Late Qing Dynasty, Guangdong business Keywords: Thirteen Factories/Tea/Cotton/Chinese Students Studying in the US (fictionalized Chinese Students Studying in the US)/Chinese Laborers (American Railroads)/ Timeline: 1861-1872 The main focus is actually on Chan, who is 15-20 years old, so it can be said that she enters a stage where she no longer needs to worry about making a living after the age of 20. There are also stories about her at age 26, or 150 years later. The main body is from the Xianfeng and Tongzhi reigns, those are the reign titles. Notable figures mentioned include: Robert Hart, the Customs Officer; Zeng Guofan in his later years; Li Hongzhang in his prime; Zhan Tianyou in his youth; and others I do not recognize. The stories of the late Qing Dynasty are truly a blank and clean mess. The most hated dynasty is undoubtedly the Qing Dynasty (perhaps it's because TV dramas and movies often focus on the Qing Dynasty, or perhaps it's because it's a modern history, or maybe it's the closest feudal dynasty to us; but if you read more books, you'll find that Han Chinese feudal dynasties weren't exactly friendly to the lower classes either).

    I love it! I really enjoyed it. The story begins in 1040, during the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, a time of open commerce and maritime trade, which broadened my knowledge. The romance is very lively (the following is an excerpt from the book). This is the author's first book, and I personally really like it. Although the pacing became a bit slow towards the end of the main text, it picked up again in the epilogue. I truly love it. I spent 14 days, from December 13th to today, the 27th, painstakingly extracting and organizing the plot points I liked. I even created several mind maps, which gives me a great sense of accomplishment.

    Pinned post, this was originally a five-star post. However, the book list doesn't allow for all five-star reviews, and I also don't recommend reading this book here. But the author and the book are both good. It is the story of the queen who was beheaded in 1536 after divorcing George 8 and 6, and the protagonist who changed the world. Because it is not recommended to read it again. I won't say much more; it's just my personal preference.
