I’m Just an Assassin, So Why Is the First Emperor Making Me His Chancellor?

A rare gem among historical fiction. While it has some logical inconsistencies, these are easily overlooked due to the captivating plot. The author's historical attention to detail is impressive, suggesting a good understanding of Qin history. Although the handling of details isn't perfect, it remains a rare gem among historical fiction, at least in my top 10.

A rare gem of a historical novel, free from the awkward hype of AI-generated writing and utterly idiotic factual errors, maintaining a brisk yet steady pace. The protagonist's bold and candid opening statement, "There's no immortal master with a white beard," immediately puts the reader at ease and avoids any vulgarities like "intermittent violent psychopath" or "Old Deng"—the kind of slang often used by uncultured street thugs. Looking forward to updates.

Having read up to chapter 70, the flaws don't detract from the overall quality, so I'll give it five stars as encouragement. My biggest question is: wouldn't the nobles of the six former kingdoms privately address the First Emperor at the beginning? As for the other differences in terminology, I'll just assume I'm using synesthetic beacons.

I didn't read the author's previous book because it was a self-revealing story, but this one is really good. Although it's a rather old-fashioned historical novel with elements of showing off and slapping faces, it doesn't feel awkward to read. Unlike many historical novels where the protagonist relies solely on their protagonist halo to recklessly court death and look down on everyone.

I really need to read more books; this one is so interesting! I caught up to the latest chapter in just a few hours. Liu Bang, Xiang Yu, and Xiao He have all become Qin Shi Huang's subordinates—it's hilarious! It seems like Han Xin won't escape either. The protagonist is also very interesting, not exaggerated at all, the kind that makes you smile knowingly and can't help but laugh.

A relatively simple and realistic historical account by Zheng Ge (a popular author) depicting a pure love for virtue without any personal ties is truly difficult to write; it feels like it could easily be shut down. The few lines about Li Si elevate the tone. I like Li Si, and I hope Zhao Gao is dealt with, but not this guy.

It's great, I love it. I'm following the updates! As long as Zheng Ge is happy, I don't care who suffers.

Having read the novel, I found the writing style and plot to be excellent, and the author did correct any shortcomings in its themes. Why is the Qin Dynasty considered the best in all of history, yet it hasn't been made into a game? Because you'll discover that that period was far more brutal than the Five Barbarian Invasions. The Great Wall—even a modern nation-building project would hesitate.

This is a substantial and excellent book. The structure is very clear, the content is detailed and rich, and the author uses multiple perspectives to present his views, describing objective reality. It's easy to follow the reader's train of thought and provides many insights. The language is accessible and easy to understand, making it suitable for reading in short intervals or at a more focused time. Highly recommended!

Old wine in new bottles, but this wine is a classic.
