A man's mouth is a liar
After listening to King Jin's confession in the past two days, I saw many JMs turning from haters to fans, defending him in various ways, full of sympathy, and apologizing for him. . . I find it a bit unbelievable: To judge a person, you can't listen to what he says, but look at his behavior—— What did King Jin do after he knew that the son he had raised for more than ten years was the only posthumous son of his biological brother? 1. Secretly arranged for people to travel all the way at night to cause his nephew to fall off a horse, and even created an alibi for himself 2. Tell the retainer that his son was not his son, and that his wife had lied to him for eighteen years to confuse the bloodline and asked the retainer to kill the fake son. But he didn't say that the fake son was actually his nephew and a direct descendant of the royal family 3, implying that Concubine Zhou got rid of the new daughter-in-law because she was too smart and was on the side of the princess 4. She wanted to get the evidence of the year by any means, even killing people and digging graves Is this all done by humans? ? Just for these few actions, I don't find it strange that he does any bad things. Either his brothers, wife, son, and daughter-in-law don't trust him and question his character. . Why don't you question the character of a murderer? Some people may say that King Jin thought that the princess had committed adultery, killed his bastard, deceived himself into raising someone else's son for more than ten years, and intended to steal his throne, so he was eager to take revenge. . . Then he knew that his own son had been misunderstood and died unjustly for more than ten years, but his face was slumped, he only said that he finally understood why the princess hated him, and changed the subject in two sentences. My biological son, my real eldest son, died at a young age. As a biological father, there is no such thing as regret or regret! ! In front of a sad and angry wife, I don't even bother to pretend, and I don't care at all. How could such a heartless person kill his nephew for the sake of his concubine? Most of King Jin's so-called confessions were explaining his various behaviors, complaining about how much injustice he had suffered as the second child, and how sorry he was for being the third child. . During this period, his body language was choked, his lips trembled slightly, his fingers trembled, his fists were clenched, and his voice was hoarse. They were all too superficial, more like acting than restraint. Only once did the princess have a strong emotional reaction when she questioned the brotherhood, and angrily said that the death of Prince Ning was his own fault. . . . If you believe what this man says, a sow can fly in the sky~~How many bad people will easily admit that they have done bad things? The evidence was shoved in his face and he refused to admit it. Anyway, I personally believe that based on the writing power of the author's past works, King Jin is by no means as innocent as he said.
The book is quite good, but every few paragraphs in the book review section there are people shouting about changing the male protagonist, saying the male protagonist is unworthy, a scumbag, a bitch, etc. I rarely come to female channels, so I don't know if all female channels are like this. This kind of cool article that creates an image of a noble heroine similar to those in male videos who is inexplicably fond of never leaving her is a book from the last era. Nowadays, even if there is a noble and shameless tsundere queen in male videos, there won't always be people clamoring for a female lead. Do you have to stick to the female protagonist to be the male protagonist? From a rational point of view, he is an imperial grandson with an ancient background. Even if the book is in line with modern values, it is impossible for him not to be proud of his status, right? (Is it rare to see a male protagonist who is verbally dissatisfied with his integrity? How can you not criticize "Pride and Prejudice"?) As far as the situation is concerned, after being demoted, he was in a state of fright. If he got too close to his political opponents, he would threaten him with the female protagonist. (Before his death in the previous life, the male protagonist took away all the guards and prepared to take a stand. He felt that his political opponents had no time to make an issue with the female protagonist, and even told the female protagonist to take care of the children and wait for him. The female protagonist died after taking the drug that killed the male protagonist and died for the male protagonist.) And there is a detail. Before his death in the previous life, the male protagonist's reaction was that he was intercepted and killed, and the mother and child were in danger. The battle for Dabao may happen suddenly. The enemy is strong and we are weak. The normal reaction is to break forward and perhaps turn defeat into victory before the political opponent has time to deploy a back-up move. But the male protagonist's first reaction was to ask the guards to accompany him back home - no matter whether he dies or not this time, he will definitely die, because he has lost contact with his backer, and his political opponents will have time to slowly arrange their back-ups, and then kill him after they board the Dabao. There are still people who keep shouting that the male protagonist doesn't care about the female protagonist at all and is dispensable. Isn't this 🐷brain? Of course, I know that for women, being ignored is probably the top of the list of unbearable relationships between men and women, but using purely female thinking to create a good man will create a very strange image: the male protagonist is a stubborn heir, who is suddenly given a marriage and even contradicts the emperor, but suddenly becomes inseparable with the female protagonist. Why? He was relegated and was in constant fear every day, but he was obsessed with living a quiet life. Is he such a naive royal child? (It's not that there is no such thing, but if the male protagonist is also scheming towards his wife, then he really needs to change the male protagonist.) Including the last life, if the male protagonist insists on running away after seeing the death of people around him, then the image of Zhao Gou will be created. Will you still feel that he "loves his wife very much" and is a "real man"? In fact, in the final analysis, the author deliberately emphasizes that the discord between the male and female protagonists in their previous lives is a way to create conflicts. They have lived a long life but did not understand each other, and then got entangled with each other after having the opportunity to be reborn. This is a contradiction. Only contradictions can promote the development of the plot. The constant attacks of "I don't like it", "Not worthy of it" and "If you don't change it, give it up", I suggest you give it up. It doesn't matter how you abuse it, but if you have to sacrifice the integrity of the story and the rationality of the plot with your preferences, it will be like changing the heroine halfway in "The Working Demon King". Even if a lot of plots are used to round it out, the readers will eventually abandon it - even fans of the original heroine cannot accept it.
Why do we have to say that the male protagonist is a scumbag 🤔 We have been watching from the perspective of the heroine from the beginning (can I say that reading the book has given the heroine a halo?)🤐The male protagonist did not love the heroine but slept with her and had a child with her. He is a scumbag! But in the past life, it's not just the male protagonist who didn't love the female protagonist, the female protagonist also never loved the male protagonist, right? 🙂 The male protagonist doesn't understand the female protagonist, and the female protagonist doesn't understand the male protagonist either! If she knew the male protagonist, she would not think that he would leave her and the child alone 🤤 Moreover, there is really no contradiction between having love and having a child while sleeping! Besides, children are born from two people! One person cannot have children 😄 If the male protagonist does not sleep with the female protagonist, does not allow the female protagonist to have children, and makes the female protagonist's situation in the palace more difficult, they will still call him a scumbag. I think the male protagonist is a scumbag, not because he slept with the female protagonist and gave birth to a child, but because he neglected the female protagonist and never loved her 😅 Now I don't think there is anything wrong with the male protagonist. In that case, they can't get divorced. The male protagonist is not the kind of protagonist who has three wives and four concubines. When he and the female protagonist become a couple, they don't sleep or have children. It's unrealistic! In the end, he did what a father and a husband should do. Even when he couldn't protect himself, he would still ask others to protect his children and wife. This is his responsibility, he knows that without feelings, there is also a responsibility. How many people with feelings will fly away when disaster strikes! There is nothing wrong with the male protagonist not loving the female protagonist in his previous life! He didn't know what love was until his death, and he didn't have an affair with anyone. He was just a straight man with no feelings and only wanted to make a career. The pig's trotters who don't understand love 🤭 I like him as the male protagonist. Qingda's books are not just pure stories about love and love. If Qingda makes him the male protagonist, then we have to believe that he will be an excellent male protagonist 😁 I hope this pig's trotters will become more delicious as you eat it🤗🤗🤗
King Jin is affectionate? Self-indulgence is not the same as deep love
It's a pity for Princess Jin Although Prince Jin is very affectionate, well, let's say deep love, he is really not worthy of Princess Jin Some people may say that as the second son of Prince Jin, it is not easy for him to live in the middle. Facing Princess Jin, he has many options, she seems to be in love but she is different, and she cannot get what she wants. , I also feel that Prince Jin is a bit pitiful, but I feel sorry for Princess Jin even more. Prince Jin just did not get his love. This does not prevent him from having a soft jade in his arms and a concubine by his side. But Princess Jin really has nothing. Apart from the male protagonist, what else does she have? Faced with the pain of losing her son and the pain of protecting her daughter all the time, not to mention the fact that Prince Jin had speculated on her selfish motives for losing her virginity for many years and instigated others to stir up trouble, even if Princess Jin was not afraid, wouldn't she find it disgusting and boring? There is no close relationship between the mother and the brother, and there is only interest exchange between the brother and the mother. Why not feel sad? The staff knew that the mistress had lost her virginity. Wasn't it humiliating under the circumstances at that time? King Jin's attack on the male protagonist hurts Princess Jin's support for the rest of her life. King Jin loves Princess Jin, which hurts Princess Jin the most. As for the love and hatred between King Jin and Princess Jin, judging from the amount of information in recent chapters, not to mention the misunderstandings in the past, the love secretly promised, but, from the many times Jin King Judging from the concubine's attitude and character, when she married Queen Jin, Princess Jin also wanted to live a good life, and she was also full of expectations when giving birth to children. When she was misled that the death of the prince was related to Prince Jin, she secretly helped Prince Jin. It was the process by which Prince Jin obtained Princess Jin that made Princess Jin bury her doubts about Prince Jin. And distrust, it was the death of the legitimate son that completely destroyed Princess Jin's trust in King Jin, and these all stemmed from King Jin's choices and behaviors. It was King Jin's distrust and lack of communication that ultimately pushed the two parties away. Both parties had no trust in each other, and the most important thing was that King Jin denied King Jin Concubine's personality, he loves Princess Jin, but he doesn't know what kind of person Princess Jin is. Unequal love is not a problem. The problem is that suspicion breeds secrets. He has a suspicious personality and a dark heart. How can he think so badly of his brother and wife? This is the key point that I think Prince Jin is not worthy of Princess Jin.
Just talk
The big reason why the broken mirror can be reunited is that there is no third party between them, so it is very important that the male protagonist has no other women in his previous life, because if he is good to other women, it proves that he knows how to be good to women. If he is not good to his wife, then it is deliberate and intentional, that is, he is not like an ant, but a snack for ants. The male protagonist is just like the author said, there is nothing to whitewash. He is wrong. However, what I say below may be considered defensive. I still want to say that I am not whitewashing anyone. For boys and girls of the same age, boys always grow up late and slowly, not to mention that the male protagonist has a smooth journey until he is given a marriage. No, it is contrary, and a series of things happened afterwards, and there is no chance for emotional growth. The male and female protagonists feel a bit prejudiced and arrogant. The male protagonist always thinks that the female protagonist is a weak woman, not his true love. Although the female protagonist is working hard, she is indeed working hard to live a life. Her pride and self-esteem prevent her from trying to be emotional. Initially, the female protagonist believes that the female protagonist is a weak woman and not his true love. She will definitely be disliked, so she just wants to treat each other with respect. Although she does not hide her kindness, she will not deliberately show it in front of the male protagonist. Even if she knows that this may lead to a good change, her upbringing and character do not allow her to deliberately sell herself. The heroine cannot be wrong. Compared with the male protagonist, the heroine is also unwilling to get married, so that is why she is like this. Even if it is that kind of thing, I will do it very well. Whether you see it or not, it is all your business. I have done my best. But seeing and understanding are both important. Not only do it, but also say it. It's like unveiling the veil in a ruined temple. It's so cool. It's such a slap in the face. It's so refreshing to spit it out after the court. Night walks in brocade clothes are the most boring. Finally, I hope that the two of them will reconcile soon and be happy.
Joint ActivityCheer for the College Entrance Examination
How many times can we fight in life? If we don't fight now, when will we fight? Youth lies in struggle and hard work. No matter whether the outcome is successful or not, as long as you have fought hard and tried your best, you will have a clear conscience. Come on for the college entrance examination, I wish each of you can be admitted to your ideal university, and I wish every candidate's life will be full of brilliant colors!
I've been thinking about a few questions. According to the previous article, it can be deduced that King Jin must be the murderer of King Ning. Persimmon should be King Ning's biological son. So the question arises: King Jin killed King Ning, but the emperor did not even suspect it, or even if he suspected it, no evidence was found. Moreover, the emperor currently seems to be wise and powerful, and he is not an emotional master. Princess Jin, Miao Xin and the still-living Luo family didn't find anything. This shows how cunning and impeccable King Jin is, and that there is a force behind him that cannot be underestimated. If this is the case, how did the princess manage to make the male protagonist who was the orphan of Prince Ning be born as the son of Prince Jin, and how did Prince Jin have no doubt at all? If the princess was so powerful, why did she make King Jin suspect that Persimmon was not her biological child? The King of Jin is also the biological son of the Queen. Isn't it normal for Persimmon to look like his grandmother? The princess is already the legitimate wife of King Jin. How much does she love King Ning or how much does she want justice to commit herself to King Jin? She worked hard to find evidence that King Jin harmed King Ning. Didn't she think that once it was implemented, no matter what kind of punishment King Jin would have to accept, how would she choose the daughter she had with King Jin? If the princess thinks that the Yang family is an accomplice and only sees profit, why has she not seen any benefits from the Yang family so far? The princess also let the Yang family marry Miss Shen who could have been the helper of Persimmon? Aren't you afraid that the Yang family will betray her persimmon again for profit? The above are some of my confusions. Maybe it's because I don't have enough IQ or maybe I don't read carefully. I hope someone can shed some light on my confusion, but please don't criticize me 😃
Speculations caused by peonies
Due to Mudan's many trips abroad, I reviewed the article from the beginning and made some random guesses: This person must have been able to gain the trust of both parties when he was able to successfully provoke the former eldest prince, King Chu, and the emperor who was still a prince at that time. Since I suspected the Luo family, it means that the Luo family should have played well with the two princes back then (they should be very aristocratic). As the legitimate son of the emperor at that time, King Jin was also familiar with the Luo family. , Princess Jin could be chosen as her daughter-in-law by the queen who was still a princess at the time, so the Yang family should be familiar with the royal family, and it is possible that they are familiar with the Luo family. It is possible that Princess Jin fell in love with a son of the Luo family who was very good at serving peonies (such as Luo Er, Luo Rong, Luo San, or other children mentioned above. After all, in such a big family, there should be many outstanding young men), but unfortunately she married Prince Jin. After that, the Luo family declined, but the Luo family did not die all at once. They must have been squeezed out and suppressed, and a large family fell. It is possible that Lu Zhan is the son of the person that Princess Jin likes, but I think it is more likely that his biological mother is from the Luo family. After all, royal descendants are not easily confused. Moreover, Lu Zhan recalled that King Jin got drunk in his previous life because he did not want to see their brothers killing each other, which also confirms that they are father and son. The marriage that King Jin asked him for in his previous life was not necessarily to harm him. It was possible that he was too unreliable and wanted to keep him away from the storms of the superiors. But in this life, he was quite reliable, so he went to the emperor to give him some opportunities to learn. But Princess Jin has always looked down upon King Jin. In her opinion, the best thing for Lu Zhan is herself, and she has her own plans, so he is skeptical of everything King Jin does. The emperor and his elders may have discovered that it was someone other than the Luo family who was instigating him and the King of Chu at that time, so he began to secretly care about the situation of the Luo family. After Princess Jin found out, she was afraid that Lu Zhan would be exposed, and she was also afraid that her own plan would be exposed, so she wanted Lu Zhan to behave less well so as not to attract attention, and kept a low profile. Regarding Princess Jin's plan, I think it is possible that Princess Jin was still connected with the Luo family and raised the descendants of the Luo family (no matter what form). Then when the emperor was critically ill, she brought him to the emperor and said: Back then, you destroyed the Luo family for the throne. In the future, I will ask the descendants of the Luo family to sit on the throne. Hehe, it seems a bit like the sequelae of the Zhen Huan inheritance 😌😌😌
Congratulations on signing the contract🔥The new book is a hit🔥🔥🔥
Plot speculation-Lu Zhan's life experience/Will King Jin be the culprit?
After reading the latest chapter, I can almost understand. The person called the evil person by Miao Xin and Princess Jin is almost ready to be revealed. If I am right, it is King Jin himself. After the death of the prince, who can inherit the throne? It was probably a choice between the two remaining legitimate sons. King Jin had no chance of winning against King Ning, so he did not hesitate to frame his own brother for treason behind his back so that he had no chance to stand up and had to die to apologize. Many years later, the emperor began to investigate the Luo family, who had been close to King Ning. It was probably because Lu Zhan looked too much like his dead son and the queen. The only person who looked like the queen was the queen's youngest son, King Ning. Maybe the emperor was older and valued family ties more and more, which aroused the emperor's feelings. In addition, not long after the death of King Ning, the two principals of the Luo family, Mr. Luo and Mr. Luo, who were officials in Yunnan, also died one after another. This made the emperor have to suspect that someone was controlling everything behind the scenes? Then seeing the princess and Miao Xin meeting and talking about some things from the past, made people even more confident that the person who controls everything behind the scenes is King Jin. King Jin is very hidden! I began to really regard him as an invisible person. His behavior in the past life and this life was completely different, which had a lot to do with Lu Zhan's performance in this life. In his previous life, he should have known that Lu Zhan was not his son, but he occupied the position of prince, which made him very unwilling. However, he hid it too deeply. Although Princess Jin and others listed him as the biggest suspect, they had no direct evidence on hand, so they could only avoid competing with him for the time being. Lu Zhan's education was also cautious and contradictory. Later, the conspiracy and calculations made by the King of Jin and his eldest son, including asking the emperor to grant a marriage to Lu Zhan to marry Song Xiang, cut off Lu Zhan's ability to get help from his wife's family. All of this was aimed at Lu Zhan, not only causing him to lose his Sacred Heart, but also secretly assassinating him to kill him, which finally relieved his worries. In his previous life, Lu Zhan was framed and the emperor demoted him to Tanzhou in anger, causing Princess Jin and others to lose the opportunity. However, the king of Jin insisted on eradicating the roots. As long as Lu Zhan survived, it was the biggest threat to him. He was afraid that the emperor would become soft-hearted and regret thinking about Prince Ning. Changing Lu Zhan as his heir was an outcome he didn't want to see. He definitely didn't want to spend half his life planning and end up giving someone else (Prince Ning's son) wedding clothes. Therefore, the results of his previous life really made him succeed. He used a two-pronged approach to kill Lu Zhan halfway. What I don't understand now is how did Prince Ning and the Luo family get framed by Prince Jin? Why did the emperor believe that Prince Ning was planning to rebel? The relationship between Princess Jin and Miaoxin? Who is Lu Zhan's biological mother? How did Lu Zhan get tricked by Princess Jin and brought into the palace? Who did Lu Zhan get plotted against in his past life? Was it the King of Jin who was the mastermind, or were his concubine brothers involved at the same time?
