Cool! I finished reading it in one sitting yesterday! ! I would like to call it a historical masterpiece alongside "Making the Surname Langya"! ! ! Unlike Wang Yang, Lin Lang has the words "rogue" engraved in his bones, which is very down-to-earth. At the same time, other supporting characters such as Xiao Wanli, Zhang Juzheng, Lao Zangtou (Xu Wei), Queen Mother Li, Sun Xian, etc., Are all portrayed very well, and they are really not inferior to "Fake the Surname Langya"! ! ! The plot is also very exciting, full of laughs, and refreshing. Different from the traditional historical intrigue in "Fake My Surname Langya", this book is closer to the daily life of the people of the Ming Dynasty. Although it is all conventional routines, the author has come up with new tricks. My favorite part is the part where Linlang and Xiao Wanli skip school and leave the palace to drink tea in the teahouse. When faced with the difficulties of their peers, they are like "sauce-flavored chicken"! Those who are interested can read the book on their own, and they will definitely gain unexpected results! ! ! Similar to the previous review of "Making the Surname Langya", within this year, this book will definitely be included in the list of eggplant historical masterpieces! ! ! Big cheers for the author! ! ! Also, can you please update it faster? I just watched it for less than a day and it's time to update it again [crying][crying][crying]
It's a readable Mingchuan Wanli novel, and it doesn't have any big surprises until now. It's the kind of book that's not too surprising but can be read comfortably. I hope the author can keep up the writing power and finally let the protagonist train Wanli who will not go to court for more than 20 years in the original history.
It is very comfortable to read. Although it is a refreshing article, it is not illogical. The biggest shortcoming is that the author is too slow to update. It would be great if he could update 100 chapters a day. The protagonist is also a sentimental and righteous person, and many of the descriptions of human feelings and sophistication are also very realistic, like Cheng He is a good minister, but he is also a virtuous minister, and he has done a lot of serious things. The three confidantes of the protagonist are not stereotyped characters. They are all very interesting and cute. It can be ranked among the top three male video books I have read so far. If it is updated more, it can be ranked first.
It seems like a family-friendly historical drama. It would be great if adapted into a TV series. The plot and diction are very sophisticated, and the laughter is full of profound meaning. It is precisely because it has profound meaning that it is not brainless. It is precisely because it is not brainless that it is not like fast food, which is delicious when you first taste it, but makes you feel sick after eating too much. This novel is like a real meal, not only delicious but also nutritious, and you still want to eat it when you are full. The author is too slow to update and doesn't know what to do every day. The donkeys in the production team are not as lazy as the author.
How can I put it, everyone in it feels very vivid and vivid, there is no dull feeling, it is like a living person standing in front of you. The plot is also very stable, and the protagonist is also relatively emotional and righteous. It feels very good to watch.
Good book, good plot, good setting It's just that the name is a bit vulgar. It's not the first time I've seen this book. I saw this many times and just ignored it because of the weird name. But a few days later, this book came out again. After doing this several times, I opened it out of curiosity and discovered that it is indeed good. If you can change the name to a more attractive one, the traffic should be better.
Very well written. Although the protagonist wears the skin of a time traveler, he has no skills. He cannot make glass, gunpowder, soap, or refine salt. Let's put it this way, apart from being able to flatter and gossip, he has no skills. Moreover, there is no system. But the writing technique is good. It looks a bit like The Deer and the Cauldron remembering Wei Xiaobao. Wei Xiaobao can do some martial arts, but the protagonist can't do anything. This is not as good as Wei Xiaobao. But Wei Xiaobao is illiterate, and the protagonist has received nine years of compulsory education in modern society, which is better than Wei Xiaobao.
I passed it in two days, and this is one of the most enjoyable Ming Dynasty novels I have read in the past 7 years: I don't follow science and technology, I won't be suspected, I won't give favors, I won't be controlled by others, I will fight back immediately when I am wronged; I follow the path of a traitor and avoid the tediousness of imperial examinations and official circles, but the logic of power struggle is extremely clear.
This book is very good! There is a starting level. Reality and ideals coexist, and the romance of Shuangwen is restored. The writing is funny and humorous, and the plot is not straightforward. The characters are also vivid and delicate. In particular, the protagonist is very down-to-earth, making readers feel at ease and smile knowingly. The author is a man of great talent, with the ability of gods and ghosts [Like][Like][Like][Like]
Thanks to Tomato's recommendation system for recommending this masterpiece to me. I don't know why so few people have read this extremely rare masterpiece. The author must be a writer. Basically, every page has something that makes people smile or something cool. What a genius book!
