Which RO is the favourite to court in opinion of mother, siblings and grandmother? I saw consort Xing being red of fury if the MC ends with Shen or You

Hello! ❤️ I'm only going to do MC's full siblings, but if you want the others, the other consort's opinions, or your father's opinion, just let me know!

Putting it under the cut!

Consort Huo Qinwen: Consort Huo doesn't really care about who you decide to court, as long as you're happy! That said, she does have a slight preference for Si Huaiqiao or Xu Chanyu. First, she loves a good Servant/Liege romance (literally how she got together with your father), but also because they've been with you for a while and she thinks they know you the best.

Second Prince Nan Shuailu: Shuailu doesn't mind who you romance, but he would definitely prefer Si Huaiqiao. As mentioned in the post about Zhi Qianxie (Shuailu's personal guard), Shuailu arranged for Huaiqiao to be assigned to you. If you two ended up together, he'd be extremely pleased about it. (He's also living vicariously through you two since he's too scared to ask his own guard out LMAO)

7th/8th Princess Nan Liangxu: Liangxu, like the others, doesn't mind/care who you romance. She's a bit young to understand the political implications of marriages and relationships, so she can't really have a true meaningful and impactful opinion. But, if she had to pick, it'd be Wu Nahou. She remembers seeing her perform at different social events/festivals and she think's she's cool and pretty!

10th/11th Prince Nan Qiongkuai: Right, so Qiongkuai is a Literal Toddler at 2 years old. He has no real idea what's happening and really doesn't have an impactful opinion on this. That said, his favorite ROs are Wei Duqiong, You Kounao, and Xu Chanyu. He likes Wei Duqiong since he gets gifts from him every time he visits, he likes You Kounao since he plays with him and can match his energy, and he likes Xu Chanyu since he sees her around a lot and she also sneaks him candy!

Dowager Queen Nan Niexing: Dowager Queen Nan Niexing also doesn't really care, as long as you're happy. That being said, she would prefer you to marry someone "of your station" so that would mean either You Kounao or Shen Sandong! She also wouldn't mind Si Huaiqiao since he's been with you/the palace for over 10 years now. But if you don't romance any of those, she won't make a fuss. She's just thinking about how to best protect you from court enemies.

L'administration le week-end de Pâques c'est quelque chose

Hier - j'ai une réunion prévue de longue date et je me suis fait enguirlander parce que je n'avais pas fini un truc

Aujourd'hui : "au fait, la réunion de hier est décalée à une date ultérieure"

Hein? Mais elle a déjà eu lieu!

"Oh, et puis le truc qu'on t'avait dit de faire mais que tu n'avais pas fait? Ben en fait, il ne fallait pas le faire."

Quoi?

"Bonnes fêtes :)"

Tout ce que je comprends, c'est que malgré un mal de tête carabiné, hier je me suis tapée le combo "malaise voyageur + colis abandonné + attention il y a du vent on va rouler plus lentement!" pour me rendre dans une ville à la con, me faire hurler dessus, puis passer 10 heures à ruminer dans mon coin pour qu'on me dise à la fin "tkt c'était pas important!"?

Heureusement que j'ai mon lapin en chocolat.

@exassistantingenieur on est dimanche 😁

[the-danmei-multiverse-and-angst]

Just finished reading Si Tian Guan, another Danmei novel and it was really good.

And...Okay, first off, it is a CRIME that not many have read this, and there's absolutely zero Fanart of it. Like yeah...it's not for everyone but if people can read 2ha, Yuwu, Wushuang/Peerless, Qiang Jin Jiu/Ballad of Song and Wine...they can read this novel. It's like the latter two with politics, but so much angst and a very satisfying happy ending in my opinion. What a shame. I literally sobbed pretty much and I just finished it. I didn't think I would love it so much. And MC has heterochromia! And more! It might not be top tier like those but it's honestly...I'm at a loss for words.

And yes since there's no Fanart, I used his character description into a generator as I was desperate for something. The only art there is is just the novel cover 😭

And here's some snippet that chiseled a hole in my heart:

A pool of warm tears and a well of affection welled up in Liu Zhongming’s eyes, only to be restrained by the person before him. “You little fox!” His hand wanted to carefully measure every inch of the skin in his embrace, tears mixed with laughter, “You’ve had your adventures outside, and now you know to come home. I thought that after seeing the world’s landscapes, you wouldn’t want me anymore.” “Well, those landscapes were indeed what I once longed for.” 

The warm breath grazed his throat, sliding up to his cheek, then to the corner of his lips. “Zhongming, I’ve seen the misty rain in Jiangnan, witnessed the harsh winters of the northern lands, the solitary smoke in the desert, the small bridges over flowing streams, I’ve finally seen them all.”

“Which is why I long for you even more.” 

“In this vast world, my heart finds solace only here.”

And the ending and the extras...😭

Well it was a beautiful, painful story with a beautiful ending. 🥹❤️‍🩹

Gonna put novel updates link and a link to a telegram group I created for Danmei, if anyone wants to sign up to use the app to join or if you have it, join and discuss Danmei or and share recs.

Drama Gossip: Douluo Continent (斗罗大陆)

Source: Google Images

Having lost his mother at a very young age, Tang San grew up relying on his father just as much as his father relied upon him. Meticulous and mature for his age, with extraordinary talent and wit, he was sent to Nuoding Academy at the age of sixteen to begin pursuing his dream of becoming a great soul master. There, under the tutelage of Yu Xiao Gang, he befriends an orphan by the name of Xiao Wu, and together they begin the long and difficult journey of cultivation. As time passes, the two friends draw ever closer, eventually swearing to look out for each other as siblings for life.

As their power and connection grow, Yu Xiao Gang realizes they need more guidance than he can provide. Sending the pair to the Shrek Academy, Tang San and Xiao Wu join five other prodigies from various academies in their journey of cultivation. Strong in their power, the seven students become known throughout the land as the “Shrek Seven Devils”. With their fame ever-growing, the talents of the Seven are eventually noticed by a few very prominent nobles who invite them to continue their cultivation at the esteemed Tian Dou Royal Academy.

Not long after accepting the invitation, the Seven Devils find themselves caught up in an imperial struggle for power between the first and fourth princes. At the same time, Tang San uncovers a long-hidden secret about his mother’s death. Suddenly facing battles on many fronts, Tang San finds himself forced to fight, not only to protect those he loves but to bring honor to his sect, save his country, and complete his quest to become the greatest soul master of all time.

It's Just So Good, Ya'know?

In spite of being a Xiao Zhan fan, I don't love a lot of his dramas. Douluo Continent though, that is one of the few I truly enjoy. This is a rewatch and the parts that irritated me, I still don't like but the parts that I like, I still enjoy.

The biggest problem with this drama is the pacing. This is me being nice but oh boy, the pacing is all over the place with Douluo Continent. Also, I am just not a big fan of the romance in this show. Don't get me wrong, I love Zhu Zhu Qing and Dai Mu Bai's relationship, I had hoped to get more from them. The other two couples among the Seven Devils are quite cute but sometimes really redundant. Especially the many scenes of Xiao Wu and Tang San. I get it, but I did not watch this show for their romance, it's average at best.

That being said, lets talk about the show itself. Fantastical wuxia dramas without long melodramatic or constant betrayal scenes are my favourite. The storyline, the world, the characters, the action, Douluo Continent really is entertaining to watch. A downside? For a show focusing on people's powers and abilities to fight, there is a severe lack of action scenes. Sometimes, I just want the fight scene to drag on or show me more action rather than slow motion scenes of anyone being attacked and falling backwards.

Every time I watch Douluo Continent, I get the urge to watch the animation as well. Unfortunately, the animation is not it for me. So until the second instalment comes out, I really don't think I will consume any content of Douluo Continent except for this drama. A pity, really.

Rating: ★★★★☆

je suis en formation de libraire et il y a un élève qui a demandé si on devait vendre harry potter malgré les positions de JKR 🤦‍♀️ il faut savoir que la seule autre fois où on a parlé de pas vendre un livre pour des raisons "éthiques" c'était à propos du livre de zemmour...

Oh who is that personal guard big bro 😏?

Also can we mess up with our older sibling?

I imagine lunsu being in a meeting with counselors in front of him, behind them there's a window and here comes MC doing funny faces to make him laugh.

Gonna take me a while to remember every names -sarah

Hello! Don't worry about the names! I barely remember them too LMAO!

As for messing with your other siblings, maybe. It depends since all the siblings older than Shuailu tend to be really busy. That being said, I do want to include MC meeting with all of their siblings (either separately or in a small group of 2-3) at some point in the story! I think it's definitely possible to mess with Lunsu, especially during the social event where he's Supposed To Find A Fiancée but is instead just being a wallflower.

Shuailu's personal guard is actually a lil' lady! Her name is Zhi Qianxie and she's about 27, so a little older than him! She's also only an inch taller than your maid, Xu Chanyu, who's 5'0, so little lady is literal, LMAO! He's had a crush on her for a While, ever since she saved him from a would-be assassin (thanks Consort Xing).

More about them under the cut!

So, traditionally, the Xiatian Kingdom likes to have the personal guards match the gender of the royal person they're guarding so they can be with them Literally All The Time. It's just a bonus to keep them around the same age. A lot of the time, if the royal has any milk siblings, their milk siblings tend to become their personal guards. They want to make sure the personal guards are close to their charge. This is the case with most of MC's siblings.

But since Shuailu was picky and stubborn and wouldn't nurse on anyone but his mom, he has no milk siblings! This meant the Head of Guard and Security had to do a deep vetting process to find a guard for Shuailu. Around this time, they also remembered that you/MC would need a personal guard soon and you were just like your brother so you don't have milk siblings, either. And on top of both of you, your older sister, First Princess Kutuo, had just lost her personal guard since she retired after sustaining a training injury. So, the head of the guards did a wide search for all three of you.

Their search ended up with 3 different candidates:

Si Huaiqiao, aged 12, who was meant to go to your brother

Zhi Qianxie, aged 14, who was meant to go to First Princess Kutuo

Yang Yihou, aged 11, who was meant to go to you

Shuailu found out that Zhi Qianxie was picked and pulled some strings to move the assignments around, giving you Huaiqiao and Kutuo getting Yihou, so he could have Qianxie.

The rest is history, so to speak, Huaiqiao has been your dutiful personal guard for years now and Shuailu got to make a fool of himself in front of Qianxie for 13 years.

If you do go down Huaiqiao's route and make him your fiancé in the end, Shuailu will try to take all of the credit for getting you two together, although notably during that route, he and Qianxie will not gotten together yet, which you can tease him about.

One of my favorite parts of the game was this little guy's line

[garnetrena]

It's reminds me of Baptiste ("Mais t'es pas net, nan ?" "Mais si, j'suis très net"). He burnt stuff in his room AND put it on the social medias (Facebook, then).
