Beautiful Girl from Kyoto

Short comment: It's a bit like "Wulin Gaiden" style, but not calm enough. Book title: Pretty Beauties of Kyoto Author: Pi Cai Rating: 70 Commentator: If not a little bit pink Introduction: Living in Chang'an is not easy, Luoyang City is deep in water! The story takes place in Luoyang City, Xijing in the Northern Song Dynasty. Qiao Xishi, the ever-changing female shopkeeper of the Queqiao Store, Using the long-lost art of disguise, stood in the bustling city of Luoyang to gain a foothold - - Yu. Let's see how she gets out of trouble and turns danger into safety! With only a pair of delicate hands, she fights with the enemy and settles her grudges. The novel is overall relaxed and humorous, emphasizing the battle of wits over martial arts, aiming to bring readers a different kind of world! Evaluation: This is a short story with a sketch and drama flavor. It feels like the author is imitating the style of an inn. The protagonist of the story is the daily work of a matchmaker "Qiao Xishi" who refuses to use a marriage trust and four "extra actors". The written content uses a lot of "praising" language to advance the plot. Looking at the chapter names, it looks like the announcement of the "stage play" scene after scene, so let's give it a prefix "7". 1. The theme of the story is quite acceptable. But the depth may not be enough. The characters are not vivid enough and feel a bit floating. Instead of using words, you can use actions and eyes to express. If you expand a little and write a person's story, the pace will not be too fast, the number of words will be more, and the chapters will not need to be completed with one big plot. For example, when talking about Wu Jun in the Western Regions who encountered marriage fraud, you can write down the routine of the marriage fraud, describe the emotional process of meeting your blind date for the first time, and Wu Jun's anger/heartbroken/move on mentality after discovering that he was cheated, so as to highlight his tragic fate and affectionate character. Another example is the motive of a rich girl pretending to be poor on a blind date. First, she has to be attracted by the Phoenix scholar. So how did the scholar show his graceful demeanor? Later, he sent a hairpin to smash the Hetian jade. As the scholar is a Phoenix man, I feel that he has to show "a little" heartache so that we, the audience, can see the clues. For example, the maid Xiaohong, when she threatens the scholar, she does not need to wave her sword carelessly. It may be more interesting to quietly peel an apple with a dagger or shave the hair on the scholar's chin. 2. I think the tone of the book could be a little less exciting. The end of the book feels a bit appendix-esque. Shopkeeper Qiao may always be a "little swallow", but she also has her own bottom line and persistence. She can also feel helpless and lonely as she stares at herself in the mirror late at night. Junior sister Linglong can "suddenly wake up" and work hard as a matchmaker with her senior sister. The three "extra performers" were also impressed by Qiao Xishi's pomegranate skirt and so on. But I can't wait for these endings, because everyone was blown up in Chapter 19, and they were all gone. This book is finished.
