Books I can't wait to read in one sitting, with none that make me want to give up halfway through. The list may be short, but every title is one I've read myself and want to share. I hope to make this a list of women's fiction classics.
Star’s Book List
Great books I've read over the years.
The Picky Young Novice
I read transmigration, rebirth, and similar stories. I do not read cultivation, portable-space, fantasy, or other nonsense like that... Huh? What category does Duanmu belong to? I might count it as rebirth. I only add books that I personally have strong feelings about, such as ones I both like and hesitate over, or ones I read a little of, found disappointing, and added just to complain about. Some are so bad that I refuse to add them even if they leave an impression. So I feel like I browse at
Favorites
I've always liked reading a few pages of an easygoing book when I'm tired. Nothing too dramatic or heartbreaking, and preferably far removed from the real world, so I can experience life in a different one. A storyteller tells us a story. When it's over, we might feel happy, sad, quiet, reflective, or excited. Once life is told, it becomes a story.

Women’s Fiction So Good You Can’t Put It Down
I registered on Qidian in 2005 and became a high-level VIP member in 2008. That's ten years as a VIP, not counting the three years before that. I started out reading the main site, and there's no need to mention big names like San Shao and Fanqie. I'd read just about every popular book from back then. Later, when Qidian launched its women's fiction section, I gradually started reading more of that. Early on, very few women's fiction books could compete with the main site's appeal. Then I realize

A long review
I gave up on this book for a while, probably in the middle of the second part, when the gentleman's examination ended and he went to the Imperial College to study. The main reason for abandoning it was that Xida was about to end at that time, and the book review told me that there was no official love line developed... Fortunately, I picked it up! Actually, fortunately, I will finish it in one go after the series is finished. Since Song Ying went online, the comments in many places have become very interesting. Most readers think, no, the heroine should be Di Ji, "Zhao is your (beep——) orphan"! But I felt that she was the Emperor Ji from the time when Song Ying took part in the gentleman examination in the name of "Skinny Old Man" in Huangsha Road. Then I sighed that hope Xing was really thoughtful. Speaking of which, I should be considered an "Emperor Ji Party", but I don't think it's worth worrying about whether Xue Qing is an Emperor Concubine. Even if she is not, this story is smooth and interesting. Xue Qing, who was not related by blood, was recognized as an imperial concubine who could take advantage of the unification. However, this bloodline was protected by her father, the emperor, her mother and a group of loyal ministers and generals, but she could never realize her wish to "rectify chaos". This is the interesting part of Zhao's Orphan: What is the reliance behind blood, is loyalty a kind of paranoia, and are hatred and sacrifice enough to build the emperor's way? It is very obvious that Song Ying is the emperor's concubine. She is too much like a crown prince: self-disciplined, knowledgeable, authoritative, arrogant, indistinguishable in her emotions and anger, and she also understands that the emperor is solitary and ignorant - a fake person will not have the self-esteem to anonymously participate in the gentleman's examination and the imperial examination, nor will he have to maintain an almost harsh self-disciplined life in the quagmire of the Song family for ten years, nor will he have the indifference to pity Mrs. Song's kindness to the "Emperor Ji Party". This is something that only true descendants of the royal family need to do. In other words, this is the self-esteem that can be cultivated by bearing the hatred of the traitorous ministers who stole the country after their parents died, and the sacrifice of the loyal courtier Zhao like an orphan. Without hatred, there is no need for indifference; without sacrifice, there is no need for mercy. The so-called emperor is ruthless, and Song Ying fulfilled it very well. But it's just qualified. So the first plot that I exclaimed "wonderful" was when they talked about the scene of the late emperor leaving an orphan on his deathbed. The former emperor pointed to the return of Emperor Baozhang and his wife ten years later. But the wonderful thing is not here, the wonderful thing is Qin Tan Gong, he really did not lose. The late emperor pointed out that his daughter would lose the possibility of becoming a "Great Emperor" or even a generation of emperors. She was destined to be a puppet put on the altar by hatred and sacrifice. She could only grow up in the back house of the Song Dynasty to become a manipulative and eccentric avenger, even though she was so strict with herself and treated others with compassion. This is why Mr. Fourth said that she is a child: she cannot see the vastness of the world and the suffering of people's livelihood. She only has the power of the emperor. She is a child who has been pushed back and encouraged, and she does not understand. Without Xue Qing, Bao Zhang's return to the court would be in a dilemma: maybe Qin Tan Gong had discovered Song Yuan and Chen Sheng long ago, or maybe they finally succeeded in bringing order to the chaos. No matter which way, Xue Qing is just a substitute destined to sacrifice. The best outcome is that Chu Baozhang returns to the throne and becomes an emperor like the previous emperor - her experiences and twists and turns are destined to make this returning emperor a lower position than the courtiers. Her inferiority and sensitivity are destined to be even worse than her father in the matter of monopolizing power. This is the miraculous craftsmanship of the world of novels. The world of novels can be traveled through, and Xue Qing can exist in the world of novels. There are many comments saying that the heroine's golden finger is actually not the heroine's golden finger, but the golden finger of this world. Xue Qing is the golden finger that keeps this Zhao orphan story from ending in a gloomy and cliche ending. A calm, free and equal modern soul. This is the most charming thing about the heroine. In the beginning, she was a murderer, but she did not take human life lightly or be superior to others. She lived an almost humble and ordinary life; later she became the Baozhang Emperor, a woman who carried a lot of hatred and hope. She is a desperate avenger, but she is never besieged by hatred, never kidnapped by morality, and pursues her own justice; then she becomes a stand-in, and all her efforts become the credit of others, but she is not extreme or intolerant. She can think clearly about what she wants and knows how to get it. This is something that many authors who write about time-travel works tend to overlook when constructing their characters: the likability of time-travel heroines does not lie in their "differentness" from others, but in "where" they are different. What is the value of a modern soul? Human civilization has developed for thousands of years, where has the progress been? It's not a few technological inventions, it's not a few wonderful poems—it's the vision that can only be acquired after experiencing the information explosion, the equal soul that can only be cultivated by modern society, and the independent personality that maintains sobriety and restraint. This is the reason why Song Ying is pitiful and Xue Qing is cute. If there is a golden finger in this book, it would be that Xue Qing is a time traveler with a sober and independent personality and an extremely broad vision. In this sense, even if Song Ying was raised in Liudaoquan Mountain and worshiped under the disciples of Mr. Qingxia, she would not be able to build a Zhizhidang, take over the base of the Wuju Army, and become a great emperor who could take care of the people. What separates them is the gap between eras. So when I saw the most frustrating part of Xue Qing's story in the third volume, I actually enjoyed it very much. From a story perspective, Song Ying is a well-established character. Her arrogance is real, her talent is real, her royal bloodline is real, her compassion is real, and her endurance of humiliation is real. She is indifferent to others and indifferent to herself, and she is cruel to others and cruel to herself. She could endure the pain of being burned, or she could force herself to study hard, and even force herself to tolerate disrespectful courtiers and the awkward Xue Qing, and patiently please the four masters. There was a plot where everyone was wondering whether Song Ying drugged Mrs. Song and Hu Zi, but my understanding at the time was that she was really "good" to Mrs. Song and Hu Zi. She was intoxicated and moved by this kind of care - you have paid so much for me, and it is natural for me to show compassion. Therefore, Mr. Fourth's choice was not wrong, and the Imperial Temple chose the true successor; Qin Tan Gong did not lose, as the late emperor pointed out that he was completely defeated less than ten years later; Hmm... Having said that, let's discuss it. Our heroine is so lovable, so good, and so cute, is it okay to have a harem?
Group interview: What type of novel do you think "The Great Emperor" is? Xue Qing: Time travel! Leting: It's campus! Huang Ju: Let's do martial arts! Lao Du: Military! Shuangtong: Sing and dance! Mr. Suo: Competition! Liantang: Reasoning! Nuannuan: Spy war! Chunyang: Magical! Bao'er, Chanyi, Chunxiao: Isn't this romance? Qin Mei: Bah! Mr. Pei: ... Exciting!
My condolences... For Mr. Qingxia
Dadiji has finished reading. It feels like everything in this life is also a reappearance of Qingzi's previous life. For example, Mr. Qingxia is like his father, and the four masters are like his grandfather, and they all passed away in the end. Mr. Qingxia, hope Da's pen and ink is not very much, but the few words on demand are vivid and vivid, which shows Xi Da's literary talent👍 What moved me was Mr. Qingxia's willingness to die without hesitation, such decisiveness, such decisiveness, such crispness... It deeply shocked me, made my heartache and made me shed tears. Alas, sir! What a pain, Great Confucian! I am impressed by hope's powerful writing and pay tribute to Mr. Qingxia!
Although I don't like Song Ying, what should I say? To be fair, I really can't blame her for her current character development. The influence of a person's character and native family will accompany her throughout her life. Only people with very strong willpower can escape from the influence, and she suffered from it at a young age. After a tragic change, Song Yuan, who brought him up, is a pervert himself, and it is easy to understand his twisted personality. She should not be so harsh on her in this aspect. Seeing that she is still alive, I feel relieved. I just hope that she will not continue to be paranoid and live her life well. What I can't understand the most about female TV viewers is that they are extremely tolerant of male characters, such as Lu Yunqi, who uses extremely cruel methods and is extremely vicious in his heart in order to gain power. In order to get Jiuling, this guy was bewitched by King Qi. He believed that if he wanted to get someone, he had to get rid of all her support, and helped King Qi kill Jiuling's father. Just like this, some people actually hope that Jiu Ling will be with Lu, and say that Lu does all kinds of evil things to gain status and protect Jiu Ling and her family. I wonder, if Jiu Ling's father doesn't die, will it be his turn to protect her? There is also Qingmei, who is obviously a person with a twisted personality and a cold heart, but he has so many fans, and they say that he did not do anything bad. Isn't it a bad thing to go and burn down someone's house for no reason? It's all distortion, just a matter of degree. Song Ying was beaten by everyone, while Qin Mei had countless fans and was drunk. Could it be that Song Ying's family was broken up when she was only five years old, and she was burdened with deep hatred and the pressure of resettlement? Could it be that the damage she suffered was no more severe than Qin Mei's? It's hard to understand why female readers are so mean to female characters. It's not that Song Ying's actions are agreeable, objectively I don't like her either, but I really understand that the choices she made in her position, there is no difference between justice and evil, it is just a series of choices made by people to achieve their own goals. It's just like what hope Xing said in the article, the little person said "no", and this little person happened to be the protagonist, so she failed. I am pleased with the postscript released by hope Xing. She makes me feel that there will still be hope in the most desperate place in life, as long as there is faith, but I also hope that faith will not turn into obsession. Song Ying has taken revenge, and will live for herself in the future. She is a child with a strong heart. I hope she can get out of the shadow of her childhood and become a happy and carefree "skinny old man" who loves the mountains and rivers.
How many days after the end? ? Want to post a long review? ? "The Great Emperor" can be regarded as the first book that I followed completely at the starting point. The previous "Jun Jiuling" was also read more than 400 chapters later, so I have a lot of feelings. From the first chapter to the last chapter, although I saved more than 30 chapters because of school, I can still feel the joy and heartache of catching up. Every day after evening self-study, I come back to read an updated chapter. I am happy for the new plot, but also itchy for the plot that ends at the most critical point and at the end. This is indeed a simple story. Xue Qing is not an emperor, and there seems to be no male protagonist. But it doesn't matter, the story is simple. Bloodline is not the only thing that determines everything, the key is ability. We Qingzi don't want to be emperors, we just want to be teachers and live our lives peacefully, but the Song and Yuan Dynasties don't allow it, Song Ying doesn't allow it, and Qin Tan Gong doesn't allow it either. In this case, if you want to finish your life, you must live first. Since they are pressing each other step by step, don't blame me, Qingzi, for being rude. From Chang'an Mansion to Huangsha Road and then to the capital, from Xue Qing to the number one scholar to the rebel to the emperor's concubine, from one person to Zhizhitang to the world. Others treat Qingzi with sincerity, Miaomiao, Master Ge, Kangnian... Qingzi treats others with sincerity, Zi'an, Ziqian, Qingxia, Yanzi, Sizun, Leting, Qinmei... I feel that the heroines in Xi Da's works will always be misunderstood for a period of time, like Xie Roujia, Cheng Fang, Jiuling, Qingzi are no exception, but in the end they will understand that good is good, and you will naturally understand after a long time.
[One sentence] Chunyang will always support Xue Qing Whether you agree or not, he is Liu Guifei in my heart
Finally, I stand for the male lead Liu Chunyang! Liantang is a civil servant, Guo Zian is a military general, Leting is a great scholar, Qiniang is still the son of a rebel, and the rest are just backgrounds. The one who is most suitable and able to stay in the harem with peace of mind is the one who is dead-set and stupid. Do you still remember that fair and round face?
Thank you hope Xing for bringing us a heart-stirring story that is touching, passionate, and hilarious, and worth savoring. Also, support the arrival of hope Xing's new book "The First Hou"! 🌹
Men's Qingzi Women's Qingzi -- the prostitute disguised as a revenge for Mr. Qingxia
[4500-Word long post dedicated to Song Ying! ! ! It's very tiring to code, so please take a look if you're passing by]
Why is there still controversy about the character Song Ying? I am so puzzled! I'm going to make a post about her. I don't dare say it's the ultimate post, but it's definitely a conscientious post. Can all the good guys come in and take a look? Although I haven't been chasing Xida's books all the way, I have actually read quite a few of them after hearing about their recommendations, including Jiao Niang Yao Jie Zhu Sha Jiu Ling! I really admire this master's writing style and ideas! But... Ahem... I'm so ashamed... All I've read so far are pirated copies (hit me, scold me), because currently overseas, there really is no such thing as soft girl coins [face covering]. Every time I read a book, I spend it in a tangle of shame and excitement... But I will definitely order them all when I return to China in the future. I guarantee it, and I will post a post to prove it! (Apologise first, then guarantee, hehe) PS: In order to post this post, I deliberately logged in to an account I had never used before, but found that I couldn't post because I was inexperienced... Emmm, so I earned a lot of online experience points every day and finally saved up enough... But I was so excited that I found that I couldn't post without binding my phone... Emmmmmm, so I bound the account again and finally... I found out that by binding my phone and setting the password strength, I can get a lot of experience! ! Vomited three liters of blood! ! It really casts a shadow on Qidian's conditions for publishing book reviews... Okay, without further ado, let's talk about Song Ying. To be honest, I really want to say that the author's portrayal of this character is really penetrating and obvious. Why can't some people see it clearly? Some people say that Xida has been trying to portray an indifferent Song Ying. I want to say no! No! ! Obviously Xida has clearly hinted at the negative image of this girl in many places. Let me tell you about it below... Okay, there are not enough words, so I will only talk about the two most typical points. The first one: Let Xue Qing be the stand-in for Emperor Ji, attracting firepower and acting as a shield. In fact, I had a vague guess about this in the second half of the second volume, and it became more and more obvious later on. It was almost certain that I was very angry at that time, angry, and even felt sad for Xue Qing. You would say that because Song Ying is the emperor's concubine, so precious, it is understandable that she needs a substitute! But friends! Take a look at Chapter 10 of Volume 3: Fallen Immortal! Look at Xida's obvious foreshadowing! Look at what Xue Qing said to Liang Feng! "What you said is correct, but there is one thing that is wrong." (You are right to ask me to be your substitute. After all, you are the Emperor and I am a minister. I should serve you, but there is one thing that is wrong.) "You didn't ask him." (You didn't ask me) "You said that if Mr. Qingxia knew, he would die like this" (not to mention that I might not agree if I know the truth) "You didn't ask him. If you asked him, he would die like this. There's nothing wrong with it." (You didn't ask me. If you asked me, I would still be willing to die. That's nothing wrong.) "It was wrong to let him die without asking or telling him" (It was wrong not to ask me or tell me, to keep me in the dark and to tie me to die for you) Keep updating in the comments.
