Any Late Ming Dynasty Novels That Can Stand Beside Ke Shan Meng’s Iron-Blooded Remnants?
No System stories, and especially no brainless transmigration stories where the protagonist makes guns and cannons. In short, I want two things: realism!!! Starting from nothing and making progress step by step. It doesn’t have to be set in the late Ming, as long as it’s a time of chaos.

Historical Fiction! The Characters Must Have Brains!!
Are there stories where a modern person transmigrates back to ancient times and uses their profession to make a difference? Like a doctor who transmigrates to the past and advances medicine within the limits of the era, or a modern special forces expert who transmigrates to ancient times and builds an army using modern ideas. Or just invent penicillin or something. From the start, they pull out an AK-47.
Looking for High-Quality Historical Fiction. No Mindless Power Trips or Brain-Dead Plotting
I want high-quality historical fiction that’s engaging and doesn’t dumb things down or rely on brainless plots. It can be satisfying, but don’t treat readers like idiots. No stories like the one where the protagonist fools Cao Cao’s quartermaster about the provisions from the start, or those where a literati protagonist suddenly has the strength of a tyrant. They’re unoriginal and mindless...

A book with a score of 9.0-9.5 This book ranks second among the late Ming Dynasty novels I have read so far. The first is about a warlord who slowly started his career in Anqing. The book is too detailed and immersive. It has not been surpassed. It is just that the update is a bit slow. The writing and content of this book are very good. It combines many modern people's emotional expressions and is relatively humorous. The little emperor became emperor for the first time. Although he had ideas, he was trapped by the bureaucracy. Things also have their own development trends. Often ideas run counter to reality. Problems can only arise and be solved continuously, and then they are trapped in this system... The reading experience is quite good, the logic is there, the writing is good, and some details are there. Everyone should be encouraged to score high!
It's well written. If this subject matter is written more profoundly and keeps going, writing more than two to three million words, it will at least be another masterpiece of Ming historical novels. Overall, don't write too hastily. In that environment, talent is the most important. If you have people, you will naturally have money and power. Also, the ten strategies written earlier are too vague and unlikely to be accepted by the interest groups. Don't push it when you don't have the strength. Writing this way is more realistic. Overall, I have the outline figured out. At the age of three, he took control of the government under the guise of others. Five years later, he retained most of it and replaced it with a part that he cultivated. Ten years later, keep the small part and replace it with the big part. Fifteen years later, replace it with your own. The original history of Chongzhen was 17 years, and it was obvious that complete control could be achieved around the 15th and 16th years of Chongzhen. Civil unrest can still exist but on a reduced scale. At the age of 18, I took full responsibility for the government and laid a solid foundation in the front, and then the pace of writing will be smooth.
It's very beautiful, and the descriptions of many places are very good, especially the treatment of historical celebrities. Many celebrities are willing to die for the Ming Dynasty, but first of all, they belong to the privileged class. Why would you be completely loyal to you and betray the entire class with just a few words? This book is handled very well, good luck to the author! !
You can definitely take a look at it. The characters are full-bodied and the story has ups and downs. Everyone has their own unique image. It is not just a flat or flat character. The story is interspersed with emotional conflicts, conflicts inside and outside the palace, which are very good and interesting. This is the breaking point of the story. If the story becomes more streamlined, it might as well be published.
Generally speaking, it's okay. The protagonist is an adult, but he looks like an Oedipal who lacks maternal love.
Chapter 22 [5 Stars] The opening pace is good, the writing is also good, and the plot is even better. The depiction of the political ecology of the harem is also okay, and some of the main characters are relatively three-dimensional, especially the protagonist's use of dreams to convince the emperor's father to value him, and the part about inheriting the throne. It is very impressive, but some political compromises are still inevitable (it is just a joke to lay out the ten future policy directions at the beginning, but he is only three years old when he takes the throne, so he can also forcefully explain the past). Chapter 108 [3.5 Stars] The writing style is indeed excellent, at least the previous couplets are wonderful! ! ! Many of the plots are a bit illusory and a bit real. The filters on historical figures are removed and more character traits are added to various historical figures (it is true that historical villains are used, but I think there is really no good or bad in real politics, only right and wrong). In the early stage, the protagonist's operations are often a bit childish, and there are often various tricks, but there are also people who wipe the butt, until the protagonist falls out with everyone. The overall reading rhythm is good, the scene switching is natural and vivid, the writing is very good, the reading is smooth, there is political struggle, and there is humor. There are also few entry points and observation points. The handling method is also different. The drama is definitely enough. In addition, there are some cultural heritage that I really can't understand... But there are many problems in the subsequent plot. It feels like there is some reversal for the sake of reversal. If you really want to create a fight without breaking. In the court environment, words such as a complete break with the cabinet cannot appear. If you break with the cabinet in the past and cooperate again in the future, it will not feel real, but a joke. If there is a real break in politics, it will be unremitting and there is no intention to relax. It is like a party struggle. This is a struggle for power, not the capricious calculation of national interests, so based on this, it can only be classified in the second category. The first blow of the reform was to attack the feudal king. Isn't the order wrong? Although it would be easier to deal with the things that depend on the feudal king if you directly take over the feudal king. Although the timing of choosing the protagonist is not wrong, but even the feudal king has been attacked. If you want to engage in other things in the future, the resistance will be great, and people have already been prepared. Also, although Empress Zhang's change can be explained, after all, she can even influence who becomes the emperor, which shows that she does have considerable influence among the nobles. When she senses that the emperor wants to move the nobles, she will start to fight back and protect her. However, she was born as a commoner. Even if she becomes a noble, she is the wife of the emperor and the mother of the new emperor. She is also mainly dependent on the imperial power and can be with Xungui has common interests at some moments, but she is not Xungui after all. So if you, a bad author, really turn this empress who is famous in history into a complete villain, and then try to whitewash her later, I will never stand it. No matter how exciting the sequel is, there must be a limit to everything. The villain who wants to be whitewashed cannot be completely discredited, and there must be a bottom line. The feeling of the subsequent plot is that it is all kinds of chaos, with constant internal fighting and internal fighting. According to the current situation, although the two queens have withdrawn, there are two kings intervening in politics, and the implicit meaning is that Zhang Yan will still jump out to be the villain from time to time. It is really outrageous. I can't watch it without completely throwing away my brain. The emperor has a lot of troubles and it doesn't go smoothly. I didn't feel relieved even if I threw my brain away. And Huang Taiji didn't take the opportunity to invade because of the serious internal fighting. Also, the protagonist has always wanted to move the capital to Nanjing because of the shackles. This, really, Shen Jingbing (I can't stand it anymore, so let's leave it like this. Since the author is so desperate, I can only say that you are happy)
The writing is quite good, well-founded, and the writing style is also very good and thoughtful. Overall, the writing is quite objective. Although some details are wrong, no one is perfect. What's written on the back is getting more and more pretentious. The more I read it, the more pretentious it becomes. I feel uncomfortable looking at it. Say goodbye.
To be honest, the writing is really good. The only bad thing is the setting of the Queen Mother and the age of three. Three years old, three years old is used throughout the whole text, but it doesn't matter. I think this book has automatically converted three years old into thirty years old [awkward laugh] [awkward laugh] The Empress Dowager Zhang's part is actually OK. If it were not written like this, wouldn't this book become a completely enjoyable book? I watched it for nearly ten hours and only finished a quarter of it. The writing is really good. Although it is a bit toxic, it is very logical.
The writing is not bad, I am sure some people will like to read it, the logic is clear, the power struggle is masterful, many plots are well designed, and there are climaxes one after another. What I don't like is that there is too much text on the political aspects and less description of the aspects of time-travelers using the knowledge of later generations to improve productivity.
This is a very good book, one of the best among late Ming Dynasty novels. The author's writing skills are very terrifying, the plot is smooth and there is no sense of abruptness, and the plot logic is flawless. The restoration of historical figures is really well done. In history, Qian Qianyi was a member of the Donglin Party. He surrendered to the Qing Dynasty and received the title of "Water is too cold and the scalp is itchy". But this man was secretly able to use his family property to support the resistance to the Qing Dynasty. There are also shortcomings. The event compression is very serious, which is comparable to playing StarCraft. The policy is like free money. As I said, time is short and the task is heavy. Especially the war aspect is very poor. There are serious distortions in terms of army quantity, quality, weapons production and food. But despite its faults, this novel is very good. It ranks second among the historical texts I have ever read. Ranked first in the Ming Dynasty category.
