Broken Iron Clothes

Chapter 138 Afterword

==============

The text is very long, written according to the process of developing ideas.

The first thing to note is that the source of inspiration for this article is the drama version of "Langya Bang", which is also one of the reasons why the full text is not included in v. I have indicated this in my comments in July (the title of the drama was not marked at the time) ), but I don’t think this article involves excessive reference. If you feel that this article is similar to any work, and friends who feel that the creative ideas are too long, please skip to the end of the article to see the key points.

The following text begins:

I finally decided to write "Broken Iron Clothes" because of a line in the poem "The thousand-year-old bone buried underground, who is the assistant minister", and the translation I found was "There are thousand-year-old loyal bones buried underground, who among them can really be called the assistant minister?" , My understanding of this is that a loyal minister may also be a mediocre minister, because loyalty does not necessarily mean that this person has the ability to assist the government, but sits in a high position with power in his hands and watches coldly. Appeared - Wen Yao.

I endowed him with an enthusiasm for assisting the government, but also made him feel apprehensive. In order to keep his family trapped in Wenfu, he had to stop pursuing his ideals.

But I think someone should rescue him from it, and such a person should be a very convincing figure. Fen was born.

In my opinion, there should be some shadows of Han Feizi and Li Si in them, but they are completely different.They want to pursue their ideals together, but they don't seek each other's way. They love each other and have been jealous. In the end, because of the conflict of interests, they come to the end of life and death.

Originally, I wanted Jiang Yu to be really poisoned to death, but I also wanted to entangle them with sensibility, so I increased the weight of confidant feelings in the hearts of the two of them, and added "Yu" to their names and characters respectively. The word "Jin" means beautiful jade, but beautiful jade can cherish each other, but once they collide, only one of them is willing to self-destruct in order to save the other. The moment of death did it all.

Because of the images of these three characters, I originally imagined the scene of hundreds of officials waiting outside the door for an audience. I even thought about whether the title of the text should be "Yi Jinmen" ("Yi Jinmen, the name of the Tang Jiaofang song, later used The name of the lyric tune, the original meaning of the name of the tune is to chant the official waiting for the king to summon." The above content is from the Internet).

So in this case, my protagonist should be a gentleman in white clothes, but I don’t want to write like this, I don’t want all the characters to be confined to the court, I want him to jump out, how to jump out—to let him have some influence on the court resentment.

Then if there is resentment, it is inevitable that there will be revenge, but the hatred of regicide is too great, that is, there must be turmoil in the court situation, so it will make people feel chilling.However, in ancient times, the struggle between the court and court was nothing more than a fight for fame, power, and even imperial power. Therefore, if the emperor of this country did nothing, the court situation would be disturbed.

In this way, the so-called loyal ministers with the ability to assist and the Mingjun who are qualified for the throne must not be able to stay in the court at the beginning of the story, so I thought of the prince falling into the river.And the crown prince Liu Zhaoye has always been my default monarch, so I let him be ruthless and affectionate, dare to act and be able to hold back.

In order to carry out the word "assistant", Yemen Village, which was taken from Yejinmen, was born. I made my first protagonist, Jiang Shiqing, the deputy owner of Liu Zhaoye's assistant. He just has resentment towards certain people or things in the court, so he is essentially the same as Jiang Yu, and he acts as an assistant.

Therefore, the role of Jiang Shiqing is derived from Jiang Yu in the final analysis. Whether it is the pronunciation of the surname "Jiang" or the word "Chuan" shared by "Yuchuan" and "Huaichuan", the relationship between the two of them starts from the name. .

My conception of others comes from the lines in "Quartet" "Confessions are made by children, adults please use seduction directly, the first step of seduction, abandoning human nature, basically there are three routines, becoming a cat, Become a tiger, become a rain-soaked dog."

Afterwards, the reason why the characters were concretized was because a dialogue suddenly popped up in my mind before going to bed one day, which is exactly what was written in Chapter 31——

"I'm putting all my eggs in one basket and have nothing else to ask for, but I'm dead, are you willing?"

"Worthy."

"Oh, let's give up then."

At that time, I was thinking that saying this meant that Jiang Shiqing would be ruthless, and he should be ruthless in dismissing things that other people valued so much.But the character of a character always needs a process of shaping. If he had such a mentality of indifference to life and death earlier, there is no reason why he would live to this day. He has resentment against some people or things, so when he said this, he was either duplicity, or he had experienced heart-wrenching pain, and he had to be alone and live to death in order to be unscrupulous.

I have been thinking about how to make him feel heartbroken, whether to let him experience the pain of falling into darkness after seeing the light, or the pain of being in the dark without a chance to see the light.In the end, I chose to let him experience the pain of being in the dark when he could clearly see the light, until he was about to step into the light but saw all hope disappear, and finally returned to the original point.

I let him enjoy the happiness of the family but felt that he did not deserve it. He had good conditions but was weak and inferior since he was a child, until he accepted his despicability in the brainwashing of gossip, and kept losing himself. After he was about to be redeemed, he witnessed the destruction of all good things and changed. He became an evil ghost begging for life, dared not face up to the light of the world, and only lived for revenge from now on, until he was burdened with all the pain that should have nothing to do with him, and then let him know that he was not worthy of pity in the first place the pheasant, but the phoenix falling from the branch.

But according to his weak personality when he was young, it is unreasonable to save himself when encountering disasters, so the character Zhong Dingshan came into being. The setting of Zhong Dingshan borrowed from Huang Feihong, he is proficient in medicine and martial arts, but the article focuses on his medical skills .

Zhong Dingshan, courtesy name Lin Meng, is taken from Xin Qiji's "Linjiang Fairy Zhongding Mountains and Forests Are Dreams". After reading the poems in it, "Don't be shocked by favors and disgraces in the world" and "Just live your life in leisure", a man who doesn't care about court disputes, The image of the characters who have traveled all over the world and lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests is unfolded.

In fact, this character was originally extended from Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu was originally a "Zhong Ding", who was born in a wealthy family. Later, because of his ideals, his heart was attached to the court, and Zhong Dingshan was a "mountain forest", so the word "Zhong Ding" was his. The connection with Jiang Yu, but other than that, there is "mountain" in his name, and the character is "Lin Meng". He is upright, doesn't take into account the world's sophistication, doesn't need to be tactful, doesn't need to be restrained in his speech, and doesn't need to restrain his temper, because his original living conditions determine that he doesn't need to pay attention to these things.

Jiang Yu can only focus on his political ideals and official career, but he has been involved in disputes for too long, and he will be moved by Zhong Dingshan's simple and pure life after he calms down, so I hope Zhong Dingshan's living conditions will make the more emotional Jiang Yu envious.

Let's talk about Jiang Shiqing again, although his childhood experience quietly planted the seeds of hatred in his heart, but his character is weak, and if he wants to change, he must go through a turning point in his life, so there is the battle of Wei Ning.After the transformation, he must have the ability to protect himself, and the target of revenge is very clear. The disaster is not as good as others. He has been bullied and molested since he was a child, so he has to use the appearance that he once resisted to lure and kill his prey, and repay him in the same way. But because of his childhood experience, he can easily empathize with others, so he must have some tenderness in his bones.

With tenderness, he is doomed to be insensitive, even if he lives with hatred, he will still have nostalgia for this world, but for a person like him who has been kept in the dark, what he yearns for most is light, so the other protagonist wants to The sun is bright, he can respond cheekily to his usual hypocrisy, and he can still stalk him in the face of his indifference. I thought, this is not a bastard but what it is.

But Jiang Shiqing's appearance after his personality has been reshaped, and when he meets such a person, he should kill him, so they can't be enemies, they have to be allies, but Jiang Shiqing has experienced so much pain, his emotions should be numb a lot, he will not easily Open up your heart, then I will let him bury the love in his heart earlier.

Yuan Mucheng's image became clear because of this. Yuan Mucheng should be the one Jiang Shiqing yearned for the most. He has a dignified and dignified status, is upright, brave, cheerful and easy-going, and has the ability to resist other people's bullying. They have seen each other since they were young, and even had a brief When they met, Jiang Shiqing would admire Yuan Mucheng, but in the end the two couldn't get to know each other for some reason, and separated, each going through the turning point of his own life.

When they meet again, Yuan Mucheng has to change and grow. He has to be stronger, even stronger than Jiang Shiqing, but a too smooth growth track will only lead him to two extremes, either too casual and careless about government affairs, or the same as before. Or to exaggerate a little more, to become a light of righteousness. (Forgive my limited brain, I can only think of these two extremes)

But the premise of causing these two consequences is that he has no worries and is content with the status quo. Then I will let him grow up from the loss of shelter, and he must face it without escape. From mother to eldest brother to brother, he failed one after another. Without the shelter, you need to bear the risks and responsibilities yourself, and show the most invulnerable appearance.

The wild beasts that have been raised outside for many years have become stronger after experiencing pain, but the most ferocious should be when they were first locked in the cage, but this cage was entered by him on his own initiative, so when he accepted the restraint, he would put his ferocious nature into the cage. If you hide it, you will experience inner torment and torture, and even develop a paranoid mentality, for example, after he unknowingly developed feelings for Jiang Shiqing, he can't control his behavior like a hooligan, and he wants to entangle him to death mentality.

Probably since he realized that he liked or even fell in love with Jiang Shiqing, he had a perverted possessive desire for Jiang Shiqing, but his fairly positive image covered up this gloom.

Besides the relationship between the two of them, Jiang Shiqing's emotions were complicated when he met Yuan Mucheng. When he faced Yuan Mucheng, he felt inferior in his heart. It's all hidden in his heart, but because he used to practice a set of deceitful face and speaking skills in order to get close to a person like Yan Lingyong who has a brain, and even though he couldn't face up to his feelings for Yuan Mucheng, he also Because of selfishness and goodwill, he would not reject him explicitly, but instead gave Yuan Mucheng an ambiguous feeling. It was precisely this way that he provoked Yuan Mucheng's thoughts of abstinence for many years, intentionally or unintentionally, and the two of them developed further.

And Yuan Mucheng was a little wary of Jiang Shiqing at the beginning, because he knew the nature of Yemenzhuang, but he was not sure about the position of this organization. Besides, he didn't know the relationship between Yemenzhuang and Liu Zhaoye, nor did he know Jiang Shiqing's life experience. , but Jiang Shiqing helped him one after another. He couldn't figure out the reason, so he naturally thought about testing Jiang Shiqing further in the ambivalence of friendship and vigilance.

It was during the temptation that Yuan Mucheng's desire to be restrained by the battlefield and his home country was first provoked, and after many years in the military camp, he could only release his desire by self-blasphemy, so his desire for Jiang Shiqing was first, and then his love. The reason why he thought about Jiang Shiqing was mainly because he knew that Yan Lingyong was masculine, so from the first time he saw Jiang Shiqing and Yan Lingyong in the same frame, he had a stereotyped impression of Jiang Shiqing, thinking that he must be a broken sleeve, so he used it to date Jiang Shiqing The way of dealing with others is different.

The difference is that in order to get close to the people in the military camp, he learned the way of fooling around, but he has a different sense of propriety when dealing with his family, friends and others. He always feels that Jiang Shiqing is special, so he uses all his strength when facing Jiang Shiqing. When the two got along in the early days, Yuan Mucheng took advantage of whatever he could, that bastard was indeed a hooligan, if Jiang Shiqing hadn't been tempted by him first, he probably would have suffered a few knives.In addition, Yuan Mucheng is indeed a face-controller. After so many interactions, he gradually revealed his suppressed desire in front of Jiang Shiqing, and he put himself in it.

Here, I would like to specifically explain that I did not control the problem of the rapid development of the relationship between the two in the twenty-odd chapters. I should have added a rivalry scene between the two, but later because I was in a hurry to get through the plot, I cut a lot, so I did not control it well. It seems a little fast.

As for more interactions between them, it is still derived from the lines in the "Quartet" mentioned above, so I won't repeat it here.

So far, on the basis of the above-mentioned several characters, after extending the plot and the relationship between the characters, the personality, life experience and emotional line of the two male protagonists have also been slowly shaped.

-

Now on to the plot and characters:

[-]. Talking about the plot, the plot line of this article has always revolved around the battle of Wei Ning and the case of the prince falling into the river, which is divided into two main lines: counter-insurgency and internal fighting.

The first volume, Jiang Meiyin, explains the background, investigates the killer Sha Snake, and provokes conflicts between Feng Yan and his family.

The second volume calls back souls, collects evidence of sand snakes, and reveals the truth about Wei Ning's battle, Feng's fall, and the rebellion.

The third volume, Feng Xiaoyin, puts down the rebellion, reveals the truth about the case of the prince falling into the river, defeats the Yan family, and stabilizes the court.

Next, let’s talk about the abuse of the third volume. The title of the volume "Feng Xiao Yin" is the name of a poem. The original poem is Han Zhen’s parting by chanting the fragrant grass (you can check it with a search engine), so this volume is based on the two male protagonists. Parting is the beginning, and the main tone is life and death, and it is not for the sake of abuse.

Before Yuan Mucheng went to the western region to fight the rebellion, Jiang Shiqing stayed in the city to cover the evacuation of Yemenzhuang, and helped Liu Zhaoye and Jiang Yu break down Yan's control over the guards. Both of them had to make the choice of life and death because of "friendship" .

Afterwards, the passing of Yuan Muqing and Xu Guo made Yuan Mucheng and Jiang Shiqing have a deeper concept of farewell. The love between them has already gained depth, and it will not be limited to desire and commitment, and it can even surpass life and death. Of course, this is a This kind of love is too idealized. Although I dare not say that it will definitely exist, I am willing to believe that this kind of love will exist.

Next, let’s just talk about the rationale for the early completion of some characters in this volume.

1. Let me first talk about why Yuan Muqing and Lu Tianrui have allowed each other to love each other in different places for many years, because Lu and Yuan each hold the military power of the Imperial Army and the Xuanhe Army. In order to prevent the Yuan family or the Lu family from supporting themselves, the royal family will not allow them to be together, but The royal family and the imperial court could not prevent their marriage in the open, and the two of them knew it well, so they tacitly chose not to meet each other. The threat of imperial power must be resolved with the death of either Lu Tianrui or Yuan Muqing.This pair of CP is destined to be whether they live or die.

The death of Yuan Muqing gave Yuan Haoxun the idea of ​​delegating power to the Yuzhou Camp and the Xuanhe Army, and it was the key that prompted Yuan Mucheng to go back to Yucheng to find Jiang Shiqing, and to draw attention to the issue of grain and grass in the northern border. At the same time, it also made Jiang Shiqing want to leave Yucheng. The desire to find Yuan Mucheng became stronger, and then the Jiang residence caught fire, which triggered the encounter between Lu Tianrui and Zhang Ling.

2. "Xuguo: A Metaphor for Discrete Endings" (the contents in quotation marks are from the Internet).

Xu Guo doesn't have a surname. In fact, this character is Jiang Shiqing's emotional sustenance. It wasn't until Xu Guo's death that Jiang Shiqing's emotional dependence was all attributed to Yuan Mucheng.

Jiang Shiqing's original intention of leaving Xu Guo was to make him make up for his regrets instead of himself, and become a free-spirited young man, but since Xu Guo was rescued, he lost his ego. He cried whenever he wanted, but every time Crying for Jiang Shiqing, for an insecure person like him, losing Jiang Shiqing is tantamount to his own death, so this sacrifice of losing himself is also doomed to sacrifice for Jiang Shiqing no matter the cost, and even with him Discrete endings.

And his death made Jiang Shiqing completely murderous towards Xu Yixu, and it also made Xu Yixu turn from love to hatred, which became a key factor to break the bond between the two of them.

3. When Lu Xiu was young, he chose to leave because he felt that he was a drag on Lu Tianrui's aunt. When he was in trouble, he was helped by Xu Yixu and became Xu Bing's dead soldier. Die faithfully.His death pushed Zhang Ling and Lu Tianrui to meet each other, and also allowed them to replace him to make up for the brotherhood that they hadn't fulfilled over the years.

4. As a dead man, Lai Chang was living for his younger brother from the moment he turned to Dali. He was really alone. No one knew his real name. His only relative died, and only The obsession with revenge, and the master-servant relationship between Yuan Mucheng and Jiang Shiqing was established only because of interests, so when he has the opportunity to kill the enemy leader Rao Kun, he will definitely choose to die together.

5. Zhang Ling didn’t have a strong desire to live after losing Lu Xiu, and he chose to help Gu Nanxing during the closure of the city, not because he wanted to atone for his sins, but because he remembered that Ji Dong had mentioned Gu Nanxing, and he happened to not He just likes to be threatened by Xu Yixu. With his temperament, he may do self-destructive things at any time, but Lu Tianrui's kindness to him exceeds his initial expectations, but he knows that he, as Xu Bing's stalwart, cannot escape death. So he chose a way of death that would not drag Lu Tianrui down.

6. Liu Zhaoyu's death is an inevitable result. He has been guilty for many years of stepping on the flesh and blood of his brothers. In addition, when he finally abdicated to give up the virtuous, he personally identified his biological mother and uncle. He couldn't get over the painful emotions. Come out, death is a relief and atonement for him.

The writing power is limited, I chose to leave blank in many places, the tactics are also very naive, and the military strategy cannot withstand scrutiny. I don’t know what kind of story I can leave in everyone’s hearts in the end, but I have tried my best to write each The logic and cause and effect of the plot make sense, and each plot is more or less related. If you want to say which plot I moved to add to it, please list the evidence and point out the irrationality of this article.

[-]. Talking about characters, this is the first time to write a long group portrait. Besides the two male protagonists, there are also many supporting roles. There are BL and BG lines, as well as father-son relationship, teacher-student relationship, brotherhood... I won’t list them one by one.

Most of the supporting characters have similar encounters or life experiences, but they each go to different endings.

For example, in the bg line, Lu Tianrui and Yuan Muqing are forced by their family and country responsibilities, love each other in different places, and eventually heaven and man are separated forever; Wen Kaisen and Song Yun are forced by the situation, and have no chance in this life; was finally fulfilled.

In the bl line, the relationship between Lin Song and Yi Qinchen is a secret love, but Yi Qinchen can agree with Gu Nan's market, but Lin Song chooses to bury the emotion and guard silently, making himself another Yi Qinchen.

Secondly, the existence of many characters has the meaning of "succession" and "alternation". For example, Zhou Qisi succeeded Lu Tianrui as the governor's mansion, Liu Zhaoye replaced Liu Zhaoyu as the new emperor, Wu Xiao defeated Feng Han to take over Shengzhouying, Lu Tianrui, He Xiao Slowly taking over the Yuzhou Camp from Yuan Haoxun and Yuan Mucheng, Lin Song followed Yi Qinchen's path to join the hidden guards and so on.

Everyone, including the protagonist, is not perfect, but I can actually express my feelings for each character, but I guess I can write tens of thousands of words after opening my mouth, so I will leave a blank and talk about it here up.

Dali means that the long night will retreat and the day will come, so the names of the late emperors Liu Yun, Liu Zhaoye, Liu Zhaoyu, and Liu Zhaobi have bright meanings, including Qinghui Army, Xuanhe Army, Weiming Army, and Liu Zhaoyu. The name "Changning" is also the same, but at the end of the story, the old monarchs and forces have become history with the year name "Changning". Just like day replacing night, Dali presents a new look, Afterwards, the story will be left to them to continue writing.

good luck.

In short, the full text is over, with many regrets and shortcomings, but it should be the best version of the story I can create so far, so let it keep these shortcomings. Finally, thank you very much for every little cutie Encouragement and support when updating or hoarding articles!Readers and authors have been making two-way selection and screening through works. At least through this article, we met briefly by fate, and I really love you~

-

Important point: Finally, let me explain that the original intention of writing this creative idea is actually to share, but I also want to say one more thing here: I do not accept empty words.

For a creator, such empty words are a blow to the enthusiasm for creation. Even if I have a clear conscience, I will be stuck in the opinions of others and cannot extricate myself. So again, this article is inspired by the drama version of "Langya in Fire" List", but the characters and plots are original, see the previous article for creative ideas.

If there are any similar plots or characters in this article, please don’t decide the result casually because of subjective determination. Please read the full text and include similar plots, similar characters’ life experiences, the causes and consequences of a certain behavior, and a certain decision. The evidence is listed, and I will answer any doubts.If you feel that the article is not to your taste, of course I don't want readers to force themselves to continue reading.

My original intention of writing articles is to create my own stories, not to make readers, other authors and myself unhappy. Writing and reading articles is a very simple process. I am responsible for the output. Every reader can choose to read or read. Don't read, if you feel unhappy reading, you can click back to exit at any time. Since happiness is hard-won, isn't it good to be in a good mood?

The end of Sahua ~ I hope everyone can be happier.

ps: The new article is being prepared, one old article and one new article, depending on the status of the manuscripts, decide which article to post first, probably after the beginning of the year, and finally thank you readers who stopped by here for a short time, We are destined to see you again!
