I’m reading this series in a matter of days, but I guess that maybe a couple (or more???) of years have passed from the beginning to halfway thru book 2? The only indication I have is that some of the children/teens Shen Qiao has encountered in his journeys are now young adults/titled men

Shen Qiao, mere mortal. This is so sad. How can he ever forgive Yan Wushi? Beyond forgiving, how can he come to love Yan Wushi? >.<

If even the trees diminished, could people be any different?

Ah, I seem to have reached the (accidentally saw on Reels and spoiled myself) plot point of “Yan Wushi bartering [redacted] for a sword, which is never brought up again in the remainder of the story” 😔 alas,,,

“With an emperor and officials like that, what hope was there for the country?” WOW I cannot wait for Gao Wei to die

I can’t wait to hear about Gao Wei’s death

Only people who lived comfortable and worry-free lives could concentrate on practicing martial arts and pursuing such aspirations.

Perhaps he did think too well of others, but if it made him happier, what was wrong with believing the best of people?

Is my man gonna be blind this whole series

That’s assault!

Wouldn’t that face look even better stained in tears and begging miserably?

I was into this one a lot more than Peerless and Case File Compendium and it still took me 4 days to read 🥴

But this flower was good natured, always tender hearted and compassionate. That’s why it met with trouble after trouble. It seemed to bring all this trouble on itself, but it also anticipated and accepted the consequences of such tenderness. If others thought the soften was a weakness, then it was they who were truly blind.

If you wish for a world without war, start with yourself

There was indeed much malice in the world, but he refused to let that quash his belief in kindness and benevolence.

He felt the flatbread had been well worth the exchange for that little shred of goodwill.

This is bumming me out :( I wish they could have stayed together :,-(

Holy fuck. No wonder Feng Xiao’s in love with CBQ

He relaxed his hand, and the plump bird sprang from his clutches and soared into the sky … Feng Xiao smiled. If it had been Cui Buqu he held, he wouldn’t have been like that sparrow, so desperate to escape.

Cui Buqu leveled him with a baffled look. “Has it been too long since Deputy Chief Feng enjoyed the company of a beautiful woman?” he asked coldly. “Allow me to inquire with the khagan. I trust the beauties of Suyab would be overjoyed to spend a night with you if that’s what you want.”

“I want to eat osmanthus cakes,” replied Xiao Feng nonsensically. 😆😆😆
