Xinyi Biography

I would like to ask the author whether he will write about Princess Fukang's night-locking of the palace gate incident? 😜😜 Because I have read Gucheng Shuan before and I liked it very much. I don't know if the author will write it there, but the protagonist of this book is Xin Yi (Zhang Guifei). Will it end when Xiao Zhang is offline? I'd better write it in the future.

I just asked the author if he had collected all the poems he usually writes. He said he had, and it was called "Liang Shui Ci Yu". I really like it, so I'm going to collect all the words in this book into this review~

Two days ago, I discussed the issue of Erhuayin with another author. Later I learned that many people thought that the story in the article was clearly a story from the Song Dynasty, but there were many dialogues with Erhuayin, which gave people the illusion of the Qing Dynasty. So I think two points of explanation may be needed. ①Why did you use Erhuayin in the first place? I first knew that the Mandarin dialect of the Song Dynasty was Kaifeng dialect, and the phenomenon of Erhua pronunciation in Kaifeng dialect was so serious that it was even called "Beijing dialect with a Henan flavor" (Friends in Kaifeng, please don't complain because I just found it). In addition, I am from Beijing, so it is easier to add Erhua pronunciation in the conversation, which is why this happened. I ignored the replacement of the ə sound by the e sound in Kaifeng dialect, as well as the shortening of characters. After all, it is not easy to write. ②Why will I continue to use Erhuayin in the future? The author friend mentioned earlier pointed out to me that the pronunciation of ancient Chinese in the Tang Dynasty is similar to Cantonese, and the Tang and Song Dynasties are very close, so there should not be much difference. She suggested that I should use less spoken language and more written language, so that it does not look too Qing Dynasty. This incident aroused our obsessive-compulsive disorder, so we each looked up information to prove our own opinions. However, in fact, everyone knew that these opinions were still controversial and none of them could be finalized. In short, since I am too lazy to change it, I decided to stick to the original language style. The author mentioned that there can be more written language and less spoken language. I also think it is very good, so I plan to use written language as much as possible for the courtiers, while the spoken language should continue to be used when the concubines are chatting. Here I will only list the opinions I found (the author took the trouble to find out for me the argument that Beijing's Erhua pronunciation comes from the Manchu language family, and I am very grateful), in order to let new readers understand why I will use Erhua pronunciation in the future. According to the book "Survey and Research on Kaifeng Dialect Vocabulary" published by Wang Yan, a master of linguistics and applied linguistics at Zhengzhou University in 2011 under the guidance of Professor Chang Yuehua, it was mentioned in the "Kaifeng City Chronicle": "After the Northern Song Dynasty, with the establishment of Kaifeng's political, economic and cultural center status, the Kaifeng dialect gradually became the representative of the Central Plains Mandarin. Today's Beijing Mandarin is formed on the basis of the Central Plains Mandarin including the Kaifeng dialect." What's more, in the section "The Inheritance of Modern Chinese", it is mentioned: "Kaifeng dialect plays an important role in Song and Yuan dialects, Yuan operas and local dramas... (The vocabulary of Central Plains Mandarin influenced by Kaifeng dialect) can be seen in Yuan dramas, Ming and Qing novels..." To sum up, as there are still many controversies about language, for the sake of convenience, I think that the Kaifeng dialect of the Northern Song Dynasty can be reflected in the language of Ming and Qing novels, both in daily life and in articles. Please don't complain about Erhuayin. After all, it is just a novel written by a lazy author. Thank you again to that author! 🤭🤭🤭

Such delicate brushwork and profound writing skills! The author must insist that it doesn't matter whether the update is delayed or not. Good writing is worth waiting for, but it must not be a eunuch!

At first, the language, which is very similar to Ming and Qing novels, is a bit difficult to read, but the more you read it, the more you realize that the author has great literary talent. Especially when writing about the appearance of Master Xin Yi, I thought she was a woman at first. After I found out it was a man, I looked back and found that many details of the appearance really showed that she was a man. It really suited the actor's identity. It can be seen that the author is very serious about every detail, and this kind of article should be difficult to write, but I still feel that only 2,000 words a day is too much. But this article is a bit picky for readers...

Finally, the day of publication has arrived. I would like to thank the editor and readers for their support along the way. Without you, I would not have been able to survive the day of publication. When I first started writing this book, I was reading the history of the Song Dynasty when I suddenly caught a glimpse of such a woman in the corner that caught my attention. I believe this is not the first time she has appeared in everyone's knowledge, but her name is mostly negative and derogatory. However, the records of her life in history books are a little more fair and even. There are not so many precise speculations. On the contrary, there are only a few words, but she seems to have experienced all the joys and sorrows of life and death. The twists and turns of her fate fascinated me. I kept thinking about the prosperity of the Song Dynasty in my mind, and before I knew it, I had already typed her name on the computer. This was just a hobby. I didn't particularly think that I would be able to write much. Unexpectedly, I signed the contract. Thank you again to the editor Shui Yu for your affirmation. When I was printing out the contract, I really collapsed when I saw the minimum word count of 300,000 words. Because I rarely read online novels, and the average length of a novel is 160,000 words, which is already very impressive. So I originally thought that I would never be able to achieve 300,000 words, but I didn't expect that when I looked back, ugh! It's already 190,000 words! The amazing thing is... The 19-year-old heroine is still just a 9-year-old little girl... But it is really interesting to write a book. The characters in the book may be shrewd or stupid, innocent or foxy, cowardly or strong, but in fact there is no character that I don't like. Therefore, I tried my best to balance the relationship between everyone and tell each person's story in detail. I only hope that readers can feel like the people around them like me. In fact, I planned to stop the story of a certain important character before I applied for it to be put on the shelves. But I didn't expect to receive a notification from the editor that it was time to put it on the shelves. I could only accept that this day would come sooner or later. It's very interesting. I actually feel that my writing is not very good. I dislike myself for being too wordy or too detailed. Moreover, the text is not very suitable for most readers, and I don't want readers to spend money for it. But I feel very conflicted. I really want to know how many people are willing to spend money to read my works? I discussed with my friends in the author group, and they said that I can actually continue to publish free chapters after it is published, but I may be approached by the editor, and I don't dare to offend Shui Yuda. Haha. But I still want to thank every reader. Really, waking up every day and seeing new comments is the happiest thing for me. Therefore, I am not afraid of being accused of having any problems. As long as readers are willing to read a few sentences carefully, I will be satisfied. But selfishly, please don't dislike me for being slow at coding... Actually, I'm not slow at coding. I actually coded out this 800-word speech in ten minutes. It's really because this novel is not that easy to write 😥 Finally, as usual, I'd like to request your first order! Ha ha!

Judging from my experience of reading novels for so many years, the author is definitely planning to play big. At first, I thought it was another article about fighting for favor. I wanted to say that all day long, a bunch of women were fighting for a man, a few hairpins, and a few gold hairpins. I thought it was a palace fight to just scold a few people. It wasn't until I read Empress Dowager Yang's conspiracy in the novel that I realized that this was a real palace fight. The court and the harem seemed unrelated but were closely related. The flavor of the power struggle was still centered on the concubines. And seeing that there are no such overused words like **** and maidservant in cursing people, the words scolding Su Xiu in the second chapter are too awesome and too cruel hahahahaha

It was turned into a TV series and it became another hit

Before it was put on the shelves, I was wondering whether the name of the novel should be changed to "Legacy of Tokyo" or "Legacy of Bianliang" or something like that, because if it were called "The Legend of Xinyi", then the novel would be positioned to have a female protagonist. However, rather than having a big female protagonist, I wanted to show the influence of the harem women on the government through the trivial matters between the characters, and at the same time show the gloomy and gorgeous palace life of the Northern Song Dynasty in my mind (well, maybe the overall tone should not be gorgeous). Unfortunately, at the same time, another author also wanted to change his name and went to the editor, but was shot. In my eyes, there was no "Qi Qi Yan" in this matter, only "Qi Qi Ye", and I didn't dare to say anything about it. So every time readers ask me "who is the heroine" or "what is the main plot" after reading a few chapters, it's really hard for me to answer, because I didn't feel that these things needed to be explained when I was writing it (do I really need to tell you from the beginning, "What is my story going to be about, who is the protagonist, just see how she feels"). But since it is named after "Xin Yi (actually I also want to change the name)", then maybe it can also be a theme based on a series of people and things that happened around this girl when she was growing up.

When I saw Empress Dowager Yang's plan gradually became clear, I realized, holy shit, this pattern is huge! ! I don't know how to describe this book, open low and go high, or open high and go high? From the details of the chat with the little palace maids in the front, to the requirements for arranging palace banquets, to the current military formation. There are food, painting, dancing, and even Taoism and ghost hunting in detail! ! I want to know, author, how much do you know? ! And the writing style is high-end and classy, so we should definitely take the publishing route 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 Vote for you every day🌹🌹🌹🌹

In the latest chapter of "Nan Gezi", the sentence "I lazily lean against the bamboo window and put on my eyebrow makeup, but I don't see the thin plum branches falling off with a small layer of frost" is so gorgeous and poignant! ! 😍😍😍

This is the way to write a TV series.

I have read two chapters, and the writing is good. But suddenly I feel that I am so uneducated. Ashamed.

In the past, I could read novels at a glance, regardless of the writing style, but this one still needs to be savored carefully. I was attracted by the red envelope. I read it for three minutes as required. I felt that it was a pity that such a good article was included in the ancient story. The framework is obviously very big.

Chapter-style novels are almost unheard of in contemporary times. Reading it feels like reading The Red Chamber. The rhetoric is gorgeous, the language is natural and concise, and it closely follows history and politics, giving people the illusion of going deep into the Song Dynasty court. Privately I thought, this is the Red Mansion of the Song Dynasty written by the history teacher. 🤭🤭

Wonderful and good writing, every word is exquisite. Give me a monthly ticket, come on 🌹

There is nothing to be done about it. I don't know if the author can stick to it. If it is a hobby, I encourage the author to continue. This book can be a god in the future, think of Dream of Red Mansions. If the author wants to make a living from writing, then he will put this book aside for now, write a little bit when he has time and energy, and then start a new book. I believe that with the author's writing style, anything he writes will be wonderful, and he can write simple and refreshing articles. Just survive first.
