Looking for Courtyard House Stories with No Forced Dumbing Down and a Historically Authentic Setting
Looking for books similar to Four-Hearts Courtyard: Kill to Stop Killing. I want one that fits the period and doesn't dumb down everyone in the courtyard. No more of Jia Zhangshi throwing tantrums, He Yuzhu acting like a lovesick puppy, or some mindless moral grandstanding in their defense. Even the TV series wasn't like that.

How can I put it this way? I can barely count it, but I can read it. Some chapters are repeated and look like they were expanded by AI. Overall, it is a frivolous courtyard. The ending is okay. In terms of character treatment, the mule, vampire, old scalper, basket, deaf man, abacus master, fat man, mage, and hunger-resistant king are all relatively weak. Work harder in the future.
After reading Chapter 81, I suddenly felt sublime and walked through the courtyard in a different way.
Highly recommended, this book has dark humor, sublimated in more than ninety chapters, and is very critical.
Relatively innovative, five-star praise
Unconventional and different from other courtyard houses Now that I have written 500,000 words, I feel that there are still many problems, but if I were asked to score it again, I would still give it an 8. Mainly, I think an original plot is better than a cookie-cutter one. I also try to make the logic as smooth as possible. No one is particularly brainless. Everyone has their own plot. As for the problem, I didn't pay attention to the word count of the chapters in the early stage. Some chapters were a few thousand words, and some were more than 2,000 words. There are problems with controlling the economic system. At that time, people still used cents, and I didn't even show up for dimes. I didn't write it in detail at all, and it really can't be considered a period novel. There is only plot, no era, no environment. The idea was wrong from the beginning. So now I can't even write down the plot in detail. Hurry up and finish it. I'm going to finish it in one million words. I'm already in the painful stage of writing.
