Reading this will make you wonder whether you have a brain. Highly, highly recommended. Everyone is smart, and the foreshadowing runs throughout the whole story. Anyway, I didn't understand a thing. It's just satisfying from start to finish. All I can say is the author's writing is insanely good.

Translated by Google Translate




























































































Good book, good book. What moved me the most is that the ministers here are not really treacherous or evil people. They all have their own positions. The little emperor relies on Jiang Bin in order to take power (and is guarded against Jiang Bin). The minister Wang Qiong is the real counselor who enters the game to win. Tianbanzi, (1) In order to let the little emperor have generals he can control, he framed the generals and brought notoriety to make the little emperor be a good person and subdue him, 2) He was deeply bound to Jiang Bin, flattered Jiang Bin, and allowed himself and Jiang Bin to be destroyed together...)
In fact, it is a very heavy topic. The author actually only told a short story of three to five years, but it seemed to have spanned five thousand years. The word "Zai Feng" seems to indicate that he actually died in Zhengde. When Emperor Zhengde fell into the water and was about to die, what he saw was that Confucianism, the royal family and the Dawn Family squeezed each other and finally finished, so they took the Feng from Fengdu. Again, yin and yang are harmonious, neither broken nor established, and hope is found in desperate situations. Jiang Ran, like Wang Qiong, is a warm current under the ice accumulated from the Han Dynasty, self-defiled. One would rather be disloyal than filial, but be loyal and filial, and the other does not care whether he is given the posthumous title Wenzheng, but he deserves the posthumous title Wenzheng. In terms of writing style, the author seems to be moving too fast. In fact, I don't know why there are two reverses in three years. One is Zhang Yong and the other is Jiang Bin. Furthermore, the chief assistant was replaced by three, and two of them died face to face, Yang Tinghe and Wang Qiong. What's more, the emperor was only 7 years old when he came. These numbers aren't even scientific anymore
The story is well written and the conflict is fierce. One thing is wrong. The story develops too fast. As a later generation, you should understand that you have a great cause and you should consolidate your strength, seize military power, reform your own economy, reform your finances, and plan for it slowly. Throughout the ages, the strategy of accumulating food and slowly becoming king has been correct. It's good to stick to the bottom line here
Although the process was quite frustrating, the writing was smooth and I felt a little refreshed after reading it in one go.
Finished reading. The author has great ideas and his writing style is also good. The problem is that it is difficult to convey the ideas to readers. What I can experience is endless contradictions and confusion. The earliest time travel novel I remember reading was The Rise of China. Later I read Hui Ming and the Wisdom of the Song Dynasty. In previous time travel stories, the author believed that he had the truth, and most of the readers at that time believed the same truth as the author. Technology is the primary productive force, everyone is born equal, and we oppose feudal superstition... And so on. But now everyone is confused. ——The following contains spoilers I am very touched by the role of Jiang Ran. Jiang Ran's death proved his "loyalty" - but just because he died, his "loyalty" had no meaning. It's like the bowl of rice noodles in Liuzi's stomach. What exactly is the loyalty and filial piety that scholar-officials admire? Is it the "natural law" that forces Jiang Ran to die, or is it the "chamber pot" that Jiang Jie and others can crush and round at will? If it's a "chamber pot", then... Regarding the conversation between Wang Qiong and the protagonist, the protagonist gave the reason why he chose this "unnamed road" - if he does not change Confucianism himself, he will be changed by outsiders (even future generations cannot be sure whether the Confucianism he studied is a "mixed version" that has been contaminated by foreigners). Even if you die, you must die clearly.
This book is a rare masterpiece in recent years, with ups and downs of plot, life-and-death struggle, awe-inspiring righteousness, and superb writing skills. Characters such as Yang Tinghe, Jiang Mian, Wang Qiong, Yang Yiqing, Zhu Houcong, etc. Are vividly portrayed and unique. They are all heroes of the generation!
This book, from being immature with pig's feet, to reflecting on everything, to family, country and world, becomes more and more interesting the more you read it!
So beautiful! Can the author write the second volume quickly? Beg on your knees! A very different time-travel novel in the history of the Ming Dynasty, a real plot novel. The protagonist does not have the aura of a time-traveler, and it is very frustrating to be an emperor. , But very real, I like it very much🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
This book is really good. I'm almost finished reading it. Although it's not a magical book, it's already very rare in Tomato. The rating of 8.2 Is indeed too low. The author has done a good job and cannot pursue perfect scores. It is indeed worth reading! If you like slow pace, this is a must-see if you have some brains! The author can try again and write more historical articles. It's rare.
It's good to watch, really good to watch, but the main character feels a bit miserable. The main character has never been really happy in the whole book. When Jiang Ran died, I was so sad. Ah, the second volume, there is really no heroine. Although the male protagonist feels really lonely, I hope to have a confidant. In the second volume, it is really painful.
