The Recluse of the Eastern Jin

Isn't Xu Youfu a bit too lively for a servant? They've already started to resemble close friends who are actually bad friends. The protagonist doesn't have to treat him as a servant. But he himself needs to know his own position, right? Why does it feel like he's the one who time-traveled and is here playing the role of a servant in a brothel?

To be honest, most of the seclusion stories are fake. Basically, the vast majority of people who live in seclusion still care about the court. I think the author's writing is quite good, but if the protagonist could completely live in seclusion during the absurd Wei, Jin and Northern and Southern Dynasties, I would look down on this character.

The author's pacing and plot are fine, quite good. But this servant character is a bit over the top. Seeing him makes me want to skip him immediately. He's written like a close, unpleasant friend from a similar background, which is a bit much and unlikable.

I just started reading. The author's writing is good, but the plot is a bit perplexing. The protagonist goes to Black Wind Stronghold several times for Xu Wan, even nearly losing his life, but their relationship isn't that close. In chapter thirty-four, they both self-immolated in a room spilled with alcohol, and Xie Daoyun was burned while jumping from the roof to save them.

A lone figure sits in the middle of the lake. Two ounces of clear tea evoke quiet thoughts. Three cups of wine cannot compare to the bitterness of unrequited love. Four steps back, a wistful smile on her face. At first glance, they disliked each other. Time takes root unnoticed. Lotus blossoms bloom in pairs, clear water. To grow old together with you.

I've watched it several times already! Xie Daoyun! With her carefree demeanor and the air of a hermit, how stunning she must be?

It's a pity, but I wish the author a bright future.

It feels like a female author who's forcibly turning a female-oriented story into a male-oriented one.

I think it would be better for Wang Ningzhi to keep some distance from Xu Wan, because Wang Ningzhi's status was too noble, which was inconsistent with that of a courtesan, and it would not be good for his reputation, as the class system in the Eastern Jin Dynasty was very strict at that time.
