Please recommend books like this.
Political Intrigue, Darkness, High Intelligence, and Masterminds
A master strategist who can anticipate your every move and make plans from behind the scenes.
No Romance, Imperial Exam Stories, No Cross-Dressing, Preferably Starting in Childhood
I want books like The Farmer's Imperial Exam Journey: My Dad Turns Out to Be the Ultimate Study Machine. Why are imperial exam novels almost always about women disguised as men? I'm okay with a woman becoming a man, but I can't handle an imperial exam story where she's just pretending to be one!
Wuxia, Court Politics, Scheming, and Alternate History
Traditional wuxia stories where the male lead is powerful and influential, has a hidden faction, roams the martial world, and falls into a love-hate relationship with the female lead.
Historical Novels About a Male Lead Born into an Aristocratic Clan Who Eventually Unifies the Realm
A decisive, cool-headed protagonist with a high IQ.
Dark Fiction With a Ruthless, Self-Serving Protagonist
Looking for books like Hard to Kill the Weird? Sorry, I'm the Real Undying One (Rest Only in Death!). Ideally, describe what makes it dark. I don't care whether the plot is logical, as long as it's genuinely dark.

Historical Stories (Any Dynasty, No System, and with Intelligent Characters)

High-Quality Alternate-History Fiction
Court politics, the martial world, wuxia, political intrigue, romance...
Pure Ancient Military Fiction, Alternate History, No Harem, No Fantasy
Preferably something centered on schemes and strategy. The longer, the better.
Princes, Heirs, Behind-the-Scenes Manipulation, and Political Scheming
You Treat Me as a Worthy Gentleman, and I’ll Return the Favor: Any Stories About Loyalty to the Emperor, Brothers?
Looking for High-Quality Stories With a Decisive, Dark, Cold, and Ruthless Protagonist
Preferably no romance, though one heroine is fine. No harems. Either the male or female lead’s perspective works. No do-gooders. I want something satisfying, like Rewriting the World: Starting as a Villain, Replica Mirror, or Mysterious Space. And finally, Illusionist is the GOAT!!!
A Sickly Hero: Coughing Blood, Fainting, Heart Disease, Paralysis, Anything Goes
Looking for books like *I May Be Frail, but I Really Am the Savior*. Ideally no-couple, so I can ship whoever I want. The protagonist can be in life-threatening danger!!! And doted on by everyone!
Good Reads About Quietly Building a Private Power Base or Becoming a Fiefdom Lord
Alternate History, Political Scheming, and Struggles for Supremacy!
Traditional historical fiction. No System, no transmigration, and no plagiarizing ancient poetry!
Any Stories Where the Protagonist Isn’t a Doormat and Would Kill a Beautiful Woman Who Picks a Fight?
Ideally something with imaginative fantasy elements, but I’m open to other genres too.
An Invincible Story With a Smart Protagonist Who Kills Decisively, Isn't a Do-Gooder, and Doesn't Meddle
Novels About a Prestigious General's Family Whose Power Threatens the Throne, or Rivalries in a Chaotic Era
Recommend some books you think are good, everyone!
Cold, Callous, Dark, Insane, and Highly Intelligent
If it doesn't fit the title, don't recommend it. No playing the pig to eat the tiger, hiding one's abilities, keeping a low profile, or concealing this and that. Don't waste my time.

Five stars, decisive in killing, revenge for mother, plot as deep as the sea, very exciting
Yes, in Tomato, it is a good fictional historical article. The content and plot are not poisonous. If it is written at this pace, it can be called a good book. According to the author's description, the protagonist should have been a prodigal in love in his previous life. I hope there will be no plot to give away a girl in the future.
I often encourage such excellent authors. Although the author is short and weak and can be finished in a few strokes, there is still a strong passion. Keep up the good work.
The first half is an excellent work. The development of the story has always revolved around revenge as the main line, attracting readers to pay attention to the progress. From time to time, some branch plots will be developed to show the strength and interactions between the enemy and ourselves. It's just that the final revenge scene didn't satisfy the readers, and it didn't let the entire Hou family and Prince Wu's family, especially the surviving culprit Princess Wu, figure out how their homes were confiscated and why they suffered. The second half falls into a cliche, and he eventually seizes the throne and becomes emperor. The shortcomings of the story are the lack of emotional drama and the lack of bonding between the protagonists, which makes the readers less focused and the story less engaging. At that time, it was still a good book overall. Five-star praise
Fine. Just don't have too many female protagonists. Preferably a single female protagonist. So far, there have been at least two.
Yes, it is a rare piece of logical writing that old bookworms can take a look at.
This book is well written. The style of writing is different from the writing style of current online novels. The plot is good. It would be more satisfying if fantasy is added. After all, it is the subject of rebirth. There is no fantasy rendering. This rebirth always feels awkward [blowing kiss][blowing kiss][blowing kiss][blowing kiss][blowing kiss]
This book is very well written. There is no need to pay attention to the people who pretend to be Notre Dame of Paris. Such people are the most indifferent people. As the saying goes, there is no pastor without payment.
The writing is indeed beautiful, but I can always see the shadow of the TV series! The plot of The Legend of Zhen Huan Tang Taizong Li Shimin Overall, it's very well written. This is the second book I've seen this year that deserves a review! The plot is compact There are not too many modern skills for time travellers. At most, they use some references from history. The ultimate use of power and tactics It's just too short and too few. Even 10 updates a day are not enough. I keep raising it but I'm afraid of forgetting the previous plot. The author is not a son of man
Hey, I've struck gold. The writing style and characters are very solid. The only flaw is that I'm not ruthless enough towards the enemy. As modern people, we take things after death too seriously. Feeding wild dogs or whatever. After death, we don't care about the flood. We should be more ruthless when we are alive.
