antique clear glass vases

After her grandfather's death, Bai Hanyun was disowned by her parents and cast out of the Bai family. With nowhere else to go, she left the city and returned to the countryside. There, by a twist of fate, she discovered an antique mirror hidden in the basement of her newly purchased home. From that moment on, strange events began to unfold—until one day, she stumbled upon a prayer from a young general. Feng Xiyan, besieged by the Yuezhi Tribe and betrayed by the imperial court, had been driven into a desperate corner. With no access to water, food, or medicine, he and the citizens of Xiqiang City could do nothing but await death. But just as all hope seemed lost, Heaven intervened. From that moment on, the Feng Army and the people of Xiqiang City had enough food and water, living lives more prosperous than even the Emperor himself.

Après la mort de son grand-père, Bai Hanyun a été déshéritée par ses parents et chassée de la famille Bai. Sans nulle part où aller, elle a quitté la ville et est retournée à la campagne. Là, par un coup du sort, elle a découvert un miroir antique caché dans le sous-sol de sa maison nouvellement acquise. À partir de ce moment, des événements étranges ont commencé à se produire - jusqu'au jour où elle est tombée sur la prière d'un jeune général. Feng Xiyan, assiégé par la Tribu Yuezhi et trahi par la cour impériale, avait été poussé dans un coin désespéré. Sans accès à l'eau, à la nourriture ou aux médicaments, lui et les citoyens de la Ville de Xiqiang ne pouvaient rien faire d'autre qu'attendre la mort. Mais juste au moment où tout espoir semblait perdu, le Ciel est intervenu. À partir de ce moment, l'Armée Feng et le peuple de la Ville de Xiqiang ont eu assez de nourriture et d'eau, vivant des vies plus prospères que l'Empereur lui-même.

He wasn’t meant to see the body fall from the rooftop. He wasn’t meant to survive it. He definitely wasn’t supposed to catch Dominic Vale’s attention. But one wrong night changes everything. Now Ash is the only witness to a murder, and someone knows he saw too much. They want him silent. “Keep your mouth shut, Rivera. Or you’ll be next. You don’t belong here…and you’ll die trying to."

I believe that we are all as fragile as glass some are harder to break than others every time we struggle with our emotions and go through something painful a piece of us breaks sometimes people help us put our pieces back together sometimes we have to pick the pieces ourselves sometimes we cut people with our pieces even when we didn't mean to and we break and put our pieces back together and we're left with the cracks with every break we become more fragile but it matters how you put the pieces back together if you're stronger or not I believe this is how everyone lives life (as fragile as glass) this is a novel were I turn my emotions and thoughts into poetry I find beauty in my tragedy
