The Fog of a Bizarre Case

Historical and Alternate Ancient-Era Stories, No System

No System, no System, no System. Thanks, everyone.

Alternate History, Political Scheming, and Struggles for Supremacy!

Traditional historical fiction. No System, no transmigration, and no plagiarizing ancient poetry!

Mystery, Deduction, and Crime Solving

Preferably around one to two million characters long.

Looking for Alternate-History Stories with Multiple Dynasties Coexisting

Preferably one where they fight Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Taizong of Tang, and Emperor Taizu of Song.

Political Scheming! Two Strong Leads, Two Men, and Rivals (Not Necessarily)

Crime Solving, Suspense, Mystery

All kinds of murder-case mysteries. Those who understand, understand 👀

Highly Intelligent, Politically Astute, Decisive, and Not a Goody-Two-Shoes

Looking for Good Historical Fiction Recommendations!

Anything set in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, the Qin and Han dynasties, the Three Kingdoms and Wei-Jin eras, the Tang or Song dynasties, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, or the Ming and Qing dynasties. I'll take anything!

Seeking Historical War Stories With No System, Preferably Where the Protagonist Starts From the Bottom

Alternate history or traditional historical fiction. I want characters who use their brains, including the villains. Don't make it feel like child's play.

Wuxia, Court Politics, Scheming, and Alternate History

Traditional wuxia stories where the male lead is powerful and influential, has a hidden faction, roams the martial world, and falls into a love-hate relationship with the female lead.

Looking for High-IQ Alternate-History Novels

High-IQ characters! I want them to be really smart (but not so smart that I can’t keep up).

Looking for Superbly Written Historical Novels!

I've read The Chief Ministers, A Scholar of Superior Character, A First-Rank Official, A Generation's Military Advisor, The Son-in-Law, The Beauty of the Rivers and Mountains, The Unification of the Mountains and Rivers, I Picked Up Qin Shi Huang, The End of Song, New Song, and Joy of Life. Are there any similar novels with a highly intelligent protagonist who plans everything in advance?

Conquest Stories Set in the Ming, Song, Tang, or Qin Dynasties

Historical novels about someone transmigrating to ancient times and starting a rebellion.

Looking for Tang Dynasty Books with No System! Thanks

Please recommend stories set in the Tang Dynasty that are still being serialized, with no System and no brainless showing off. Thanks 😊

Detective, Mystery, and Crime-Solving Stories

Novels Suitable for Older Readers

Books suitable for older readers to listen to.

Any Grand-scale Historical Political Intrigue Novels?

The male and female leads should be smart, not foolish and naive.

Wuxia, the Martial World, and the Imperial Court

Through a hundred battles, I roam the martial world with my flute held high; heroes brave the storm, and life and death weigh little. A pair of mandarin ducks endure the silkworm’s bitter toil, while a smile blooms beside a white horse’s saddle.

Stories About Power Struggles in Both the Martial World and the Imperial Court?

The protagonist should be decisive and ruthless. The antagonists should be intelligent, or there shouldn’t be any absolute villains. No female lead, and above all, no woman should turn the protagonist into an idiot.

Desperately Short on Historical Fiction, Please Recommend Some to Save Me From This Reading Drought

Preferably a historical novel with a realistic feel.

Mystery, Mind-Bending Puzzles, Thrills, and High-IQ Characters

Crime Solving, Suspense, and Mystery

Mystery and Detective Novels

I've read so many romance stories. Are there any mystery novels?

Looking for High-IQ Political Intrigue

Both the male and female leads are intelligent and strategic, while the supporting characters are loyal and warmhearted.
