I’m in a reading slump.
Historical Fiction That Feels Realistic
No System, and nothing about The Legend of Qin. Just straight historical fiction.

Meticulously Researched Historical Fiction
A twisting, suspenseful plot, a protagonist who's not an idiot, and something I can learn from while reading. Ideally, it should be close to real history.

Preferably a book rated above 9.
The One and Only 9.9-Rated Masterpiece
Looking for books like The End of Ten Days. It's the only 9.9-rated novel on Tomato, so its quality speaks for itself 😏. Even though it's a male-oriented novel, it really doesn't feel like one, and it's totally fine for women to read. I've already gotten several people in my class hooked on it.
Seeking High-Quality Historical Romance, No Transmigration, Rebirth, or System
I like food, palace intrigue, the imperial examinations, political schemes, and crime-solving. On Tomato, I’ve read The Strongest Female Grand Secretary Rises Against the Odds; for palace intrigue, Zhaohua Weiyang, Palace Willows, and Deep Palace Strategy: The Tale of Qingzhi; for food, Chang’an Snack Shop (I can’t remember if it was on Tomato).
I Can't Believe Historical Fiction Writers Can Be This Good
A fact-based educational book written using sources from official history, but not boring!
Epic War Novels With Grand, Passionate Battle Scenes
Guys, any novels with epic, large-scale battle scenes? Passionate ones are fine too. It doesn't have to be war or fantasy, anything goes as long as the battles are grand.
Any Grand-scale Historical Political Intrigue Novels?
The male and female leads should be smart, not foolish and naive.

Unlike the fast-paced novels popular today, this author possesses genuine talent and skill. It starts off at a high level, and the content is captivating, making it a truly exceptional novel.
A book worth reading carefully; the author's writing is exceptionally good, the war scenes are thrilling and epic, and the values conveyed behind the book are thought-provoking. A good read.
A person with a heart of gold and courage, upright character, and a deep love for their country, who dares to advocate for it, writes works imbued with a powerful aura of patriotism and national pride—worthy of support! The author possesses a thorough understanding of historical background, a tight plot, and fluent writing—a professional-level skill!
A great book! 👍 It might not suit the tastes of today's mainstream readers 🤔 But undeniably, the author's writing flows like water, painting a magnificent picture of the Sui and Tang dynasties [Note]. The plot is full of twists and turns, the structure is reasonable, and the characters are vividly portrayed [Salute].
Both the writing and plot are of high quality. Unlike typical wish-fulfillment novels, it's more like a work of historical literature. Knowing that it won't change the course of history, and that the protagonist has no ambition to seize power, although I haven't finished reading it, I'm pretty sure the protagonist will assist the Li family. Just imagining the protagonist living out the rest of his life in fear and trembling, like Li Jing, makes me feel like I've already been spoiled.
I read it a few years ago, and it's still captivating to read now. The writing is rigorous, the historical sources and folk customs are meticulously researched, and the storyline seems to transport you into a historical world, making you feel as if the people involved were real. A great book!
The writing style is simple and concise, and the portrayal of war and characters is vivid. It's not a mindless time-travel story, making it a good one among historical novels. However, the character development and changes might be a little stiff, failing to make the changes seem subtle. Overall, it's a good historical novel.
A saying comes to mind: "The greatest heroes are those who serve their country and its people!" Another saying comes to mind: "The Chinese nation (the Chinese people) is well protected by their heroes and warriors." —Of course, it's a pity Er Ya died, and there's also Hong Fu Nu. Both are heroines. And what about Li Wan'er, and Shangguan?
This book, like a modern-day version of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, conveys the idea that a nation is the foundation of a family. It should be read by young people. The writing is excellent. Thank you to the author.
Without the superficiality of typical wish-fulfillment novels, the writing is smooth and well-paced, making it a refreshing change in online literature. Even in less intense sections, there's no urge to abandon the book.
