帝业起于微末
What makes this book go beyond ordinary hegemony articles is that it not only describes "destruction" and "conquest", but also lays out clues of "shaping" and "reconstruction" much earlier. Starting from the middle period, the focus of the story has quietly shifted from "how to survive in troubled times" to "how to establish a new way of living." Liu Zheng's process from using the rules to challenging the rules and then trying to formulate the rules is full of political wisdom and danger. The descriptions of the strife in officialdom, the distribution of resources, and the win-win and intimidation of people's hearts are delicate and profound, showing a vivid and cruel picture of the ancient social and political ecology.
The world view is novel and the characters are distinct. The opening chapter is suspenseful and gripping, and the middle stage develops steadily. Although there are occasional routine plots, the overall rhythm is well controlled. The author has found a rare balance between excitement and depth, making people unable to stop reading.
It's much better than time-travel novels. It's my favorite story about the growth of little characters!
Worth savoring, the rhythm is suitable
The plot is wonderful, the content of the story is full of ups and downs, and it's very nice.
Beautiful, very beautiful.
Very exciting! Fascinating!
Very nice, a bit interesting
Super good-looking, not exaggerated, no cheats, no halo of being a superb protagonist, but smart.
This book is beautifully written, with a compact plot and concise language.
It's very interesting to watch. I like this one without modern people traveling through time. It feels more real.
The logic is clear, the details are well handled, and it is fascinating.
The content is substantial and the chapters are good.
Overall, it's pretty good, but some places are still not explained clearly. For example, when did the protagonist become literate?
The author's ideas are clear, the plot is vivid, the story is eloquent, and the story design is also very reasonable. It is a rare work. The score is indeed too low, it should be around nine points!
