They’re unoriginal and mindless...

The author's writing is really delicate. In one sentence, he can fully describe it from several people's perspectives and reverse thoughts in multiple paragraphs. There are more than 40 chapters in the first night, which is about 70,000 to 80,000 words. Like it!!! I can't "enjoy" it alone, I must give it a five-star thumbs up
Five stars, if I can't feel uncomfortable, everyone comes in and makes me vomit.
Well, first of all, with modern knowledge, everyone knows how deep Zhu Yuanzhang's scheming is. Although he will be prepared when he receives the news of his death, he should be more cautious and confirm the authenticity of the news before taking action. He even said that he should confirm that he was in control of the situation, but the protagonist just left the "body" nearby for a few days without even looking at it. He had to lie on it and cry for a while, so that he could see something. Secondly, as the Hongwu Emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely not leave only a little backup. As a result, there were only two people, Jiang Xian and the imperial doctor, from beginning to end, and they were passive from beginning to end, and even had to sneak out for fear of being discovered by the protagonist. 😅 However, the protagonist's strategy is okay, but he thinks the situation is too simple. Huaixi is a proud and powerful general, but he is by no means a straight-minded fool. They are just standing in front of Zhu Yuanzhang. They have no IQ to fight so many battles with Zhu Yuanzhang and still survive. Based on the situation at that time, they definitely directly hijacked the protagonist, regardless of the big pie, and then directly controlled the court with iron-blooded means. As for the border royal families, with their temperament, they are only afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang. Without Zhu Yuanzhang's suppression, who can withstand it? 🤔
What a masterpiece! I vomited one after another after watching it... Such a good work, I want everyone to vomit together... [Laughing] [laughing]
It is suitable for readers who have only a little knowledge of the Ming Dynasty and have almost seen the events of the Ming Dynasty. A real history master should be able to show the drama.
I finished reading it in one go. The writing is very good so far. The whole book has a strong sense of anticipation. According to the development, it is a million-level divine book. The shortcomings are a bit delayed from the second chapter to the fifteenth chapter. The flaws are not concealed. The whole book is very good. The author has taken off!
Although there are some cool articles, the structure is reasonable, the chain of thinking is reasonable, the pace is a little fast but acceptable, and the writing is good. At least it is not the kind of thinking about what is going on and killing a cow with one punch. Reasonability serves as reasonable suppression and reasonable explanation. It can be seen, and it can be considered good-looking.
The content is good, the plot is good, but the number of words is too small to talk about one thing, which makes it quite tiring to read. The four stars are given because the plot is well written, and one thing is told back and forth in several chapters and by several people. If you do this too much, it will become a bit annoying for the readers. It would be great if the update speed could catch up
I don't know about others, but I quite like this type of work and that's it. Therefore, the author must not stop updating. I really know how to scold people if I stop updating, but I can't scold rationally. 🤭🤭🤭🤭
I have only read about a hundred chapters so far, and I can give it five stars. Apart from saying that liberating women into society is very toxic, everything else is fine. People in Europe often fight wars, and they trick women into working because they don't have enough population. During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, there were more than 80 million people, and the population was even higher. There was no need for women to work in society. From an economic and social perspective, this should not be done at this time.
