Do you know that the poem in this video is the origin of 'Li Ci' (Tang Lici’s name). "千载逢无俪，断行旧日辞," Qiān zǎi féng wú lì, duànxíng jiù rì cí.
The original novel did not explain the meaning behind the name "Tang Li Ci", nor did it elaborate on the deep feelings between A Li and Fang Zhou that would make him willing to endure the criticism of thousands of people and unbearable pain of co-existing with two hearts.
In the drama,“千载逢无俪，断行旧日辞。就叫你，唐俪辞吧。”, “You are such a beautiful person who is rarely find in a thousand years, please stay here and bid farewell to the nightmares of the past. Let’s call you Tang Li Ci”.
The name is given to him by Fang Zhou becomes a blessing for him. Although he was difficult to discipline, however, in the eyes of the sect brothes, he was the most precious treasure in the world.

Description of Shen Yuanbai’s appearance in the original novel, seems like Luo Yunxi was taken as muse for the appearance.
1. Eyebrows and Eyes
His eyebrows resemble distant mountains covered in dark black, his eyes are like the moon reflected in a cold pond. His eyes are deep yet often distant, with a slightly raised corner. When he's not smiling, they look like frost and snow. When he smiles, they resemble the first melting ice of spring, revealing a hint of loneliness.
2. Skin Color and Symptoms
His complexion is pale like porcelain all year around, as if he has been ill for a long time. His lips are extremely pale, only tinged with a faint blush when he's emotionally moved, like plum blossoms falling in the snow, a frosty beauty revealed in their brokenness.
3. Physical Appearance
His figure is as slender as a bamboo, and he often wears a plain, wide robe. His robes flutter like rolling clouds as he moves. Despite his frail health, he always stands straight, like a solitary pine tree standing on a cliff, his character unbending and unyielding.
4. Eye-Catching Details
His fingertips are as slender as jade, the joints distinct when he holds a pen, and the veins in his wrists barely visible. His black hair is often loosely tied up with a wooden hairpin, with a few strands cascading down his temples, adding to his wild demeanor.Temperament and Symbolism.
His appearance is not fierce or intimidating, but rather conveys a sense of coolness, silence, crispness, and elegance, echoing the book's theme of "paper and ink"-as pure and fragile as paper, yet as profound and unfathomable as ink. This alludes to his complex identity as a descendant of a papermaking family, burdened by a destiny.
Descriptions of his appearance are often interwoven with scenes (e.g., candlelight at night, walking alone in a snowy courtyard), highlighting his paradoxical "fallen from grace" through the contrasting environments. This not only highlights his exceptional talent but also hints at his ill-fated fate.
