The TV series "The Star is Brilliant " starring Wu Lei and Zhao Lusi is adapted from 's "The Star is Brilliant, I'm so lucky " by Care is Chaos . The novel is a fictional novel with 179 chapters. It has 66 episodes after being turned into a TV series. The story is a combination of house fighting + palace fighting + sadomasochism + comedy + battlefield. It tells the story of the female protagonist Cheng Shaoshang and the male protagonist Ling Buyi, who always stick to their inner justice and grow together in adversity. , work together to resolve the national crisis, and finally achieve a beautiful story, let's take a look...
The story takes place in a war-torn era. The Cheng family has three sons. Among them, the eldest son Cheng Shi and his wife want to fight with the army, and the second son Cheng Cheng and his wife are the main breadwinners of the family, and their third son, Cheng Zhi, is studying away from home, so Cheng Shi's youngest daughter, Cheng Shaoshang, becomes a "left-behind child." In the novel, Ge, the wife of the second son Cheng Cheng, behaved in various ways in the Cheng family. She maliciously connived at Cheng Shaoshang, intending to raise him as a cripple. She also trapped and abused him, causing Shaoshang to die of high fever. A modern person, Yu Cailing, traveled through her body.
There is no character Yu Cailing in the TV series, so we don’t need to talk about her past life. We only talk about Cheng Shaoshang in ancient times. In order to fight against her aunt’s bad thoughts and jealousy, and in order to survive in this family, she had to She pretended to be a trouble-making girl, but she was still a useless person with no real skills and no knowledge. It was not until her parents who had calmed down the chaos returned triumphantly ten years later that Cheng Shaoshang finally got over it. Although she had grown up at this time, , but I couldn’t read a few Chinese characters. In order to read and read, it also led to the "Bookcase Troubles".
Under the oppression of her aunt, Cheng Shaoshang grew up into a little girl (a master of nonsensical fighting) who dared to fight against the sky and the earth. But when it comes to house fights, there are not many house fights in this novel, as is the case with Aunt Ge. There are very few parts (Ge was divorced after Cheng Shi came back), and the part about the Lou family should also be considered. In other words, this novel will disappoint you who want to watch a house fight. Mrs. Xiao, Cheng Shaoshang’s mother , although there is some competition with her daughter, but it is not a house fight, but the mother wants to educate her daughter (because Cheng Shaoshang is too prickly). The main story line of
novel revolves around Cheng Shaoshang's three engagements and break-ups. She sat at home for three engagements inexplicably and waited for fate to push her. She wanted to marry a rich country gentleman, but Lou Yao, a descendant of an aristocratic family, automatically came to her door and married Lou Yao. They got along happily, and then Ling Buyi, the adopted son of the new emperor, took the initiative. After Ling Buyi's accident, Yuan Shen, a talented man from Bailu Mountain, stepped in to replace him. As soon as Yuan Sheng took over, Ling Buyi hurried back to join the fight ( The reasons are very complicated, and I can only give a brief statement here). In the end, of course, Ling Buyi and Cheng Shaoshang were together.
Let’s talk about the male protagonist Ling Buyi again. When he was five or six years old, that is, when he could just remember, he witnessed his father’s neck being wiped clean + the massacre of the city + his father’s brother’s head being stuck on a sword and halberd by the enemy. Behind this is a case of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. It is this kind of blood feud that makes his character have an extreme side. Therefore, after finding out the truth of the "Old Gucheng Case" back then, he took revenge by exchanging blood for blood. That is to say, in Faced with revenge and love, Ling Buyi chose the former and hurt Cheng Shaoshang (the specific reasons will not be detailed here).
The relationship between Cheng Shaoshang and Huo Buyi is very sad. The two injured people healed each other and slowly let each other into their hearts (in the novel, the two of them did not get married after dozens of chapters) , it’s not surprising if it’s not bitter), maybe this is the growth they want to experience! Perhaps this way can reflect the love that "just one look can last ten thousand years". Cheng Shaoshang should be able to understand in the end that love is not what she initially thought: a good marriage is when both men and women can get what they need.
Finally, I would like to talk about the palace fights in the novel. The emperor only has three women. Concubine Yue is considered the first wife of his childhood sweethearts; Empress Xuan has to marry and cannot live up to her; The core of the fight is not the three of them, but the third princess and the fifth princess, and the fifth prince and the second prince. The underlying meaning behind them is the struggle between the founding heroes.
