Looking for Novels Set During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Jin Dynasty, or the Northern and Southern Dynasties
I’ve read so many stories set in the Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties that I’m tired of them. I’d like to try some less common historical periods. Preferably completed. Please recommend some~~~

The Chu-Han Contention, the An Lushan Rebellion, and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms
A lord-simulation game. No transmigration, but it should blend with reality. No Three Kingdoms era either. Spring and Autumn, Warring States, the end of the Qin dynasty, or mid-to-late Tang are all fine

Whether it is the words and deeds of the characters or the layout and description of the scenes, they all follow the ancient style, making the whole story filled with a strong historical atmosphere, as if traveling through a thousand years and experiencing that thrilling period in person. Li Yi's character creation is vivid and full. Li Yi had great ambitions, but was forced to flee the world due to the uncertainty of the world. His inner struggle and confusion about the future are delicately presented in the author's writing. His will for revenge is rock-solid and shining, becoming a warm and bright color in this troubled world. On the way to escape, he encountered encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers, or encountered dangers in rivers and lakes. Every crisis was surrounded by dangers, but he relied on wisdom and courage to turn danger into safety, showing his indomitable will and perseverance. The plot has ups and downs and is exciting. From the initial escape, to the thrilling dealings in Xiangzhou, to the resolute move forward after taking the wrong path to Linzhang County, there are many obstacles and obstacles along the way. The imperial court followed him like a shadow, and Jianghu forces also disturbed him. However, he never gave up the hope of survival and struggled to find a chance in the predicament. In the meantime, historical events such as the destruction of Shu in the Later Tang Dynasty are interspersed, which makes the story grand and broad, allowing readers to deeply feel the changes of that era and the turbulent historical torrent. Every turn is unexpected, every battle is thrilling, making people unable to put down the book. The novel is not only a personal escape legend, but also a profound reflection on troubled times. In that turbulent era, one's personal destiny drifted with the tide, making it difficult to control one's own destiny. The situation in the world after Li Cunxu destroyed Shu, and the ebb and flow of various forces, all reflected the impermanence and cruelty in troubled times. Li Yi's struggle under this giant wheel of history highlights the brilliance of human nature and the unremitting pursuit of freedom and justice.
