In my opinion, this is a rare gem among courtyard-themed novels. It avoids black markets and fishing, and the entire plot is remarkably plausible. It also reflects the social realities of the time. Initially, everything was great, and I even gave it five stars. But I'm puzzled: does having many women equate to being a powerful man in many people's eyes? Does having many women make a man powerful?
5-Star review! Logically consistent, with a complete narrative structure. Writing this was no easy feat. Keep up the good work, author! 👍👍👍
It's quite good; we'll see how the relationship with the old lady is handled later on.
I read the comments and found that many people are conflicted about the male protagonist having a harem, but I don't mind. After all, he's a time traveler, so it's understandable since they're all men. Hahaha 😄 Keep it up, author! Just write your ideal courtyard house.
After listening for several hours, I feel that this book is quite well written. Although there are some illogical points, the flaws do not outweigh the merits. It reasonably depicts the everyday life of people in that era without just fighting and killing. It portrays human relationships and social customs very well, showing me a different side of Sha Zhu.
I initially wanted to give it five stars. At around 100 pages, it's one of the better courtyard-themed novels I've read. I thought it would be a story with a small cheat code, just wits and battles within the courtyard. However, the spatial cheat code is surprisingly powerful, almost like another novel where the spatial cheat code makes you invincible in Japan.
It's beautiful, so beautiful! Everyone come and see!
In terms of pure plot, this book about courtyard houses would be in my top five. The pacing is very tight, the plot is very reasonable, and it presents a different kind of courtyard house! I saw that when they said "Journey to the North" was going to end, I thought I'd wait a few days until it was finished before reading it all at once. But they released over 70 more chapters! That's too much! 😠
It's well-written. The author could start a new female-oriented novel where Qin Huairu also transmigrates from under a bridge. She targets He Yuzhu at every turn, but ultimately wins him over completely. 😆😆😆
The early part of this novel, set in a courtyard house, closely resembles the plot of the TV series, but later it introduces many different storylines. Although there is a lot of unnecessary dialogue in some parts, the overall plot is very reasonable, and the protagonist's thought process is quite in line with the times.
