I Have a Search Engine for Earth's Culture: Timeless Poetry

[One heroine or none + feel-good or partly feel-good + lots of showing off, little face-slapping + poetry first, novel second + the rise of a calligraphy master and literary giant]

This story promotes no hatred or separatist rhetoric. May peace endure forever!

A parallel world with a complete history and all the same historical figures, but gaps in its poetry and songs. The main text will explain everything in detail.

The protagonist's golden finger is a search engine in his mind. It evolves, strengthening his intellect and improving his comprehension, but it won't be anything too outrageous. The protagonist definitely won't cultivate immortality or go off to start a company, become an actor, or get involved in any other such nonsense. He'll write a few classic songs, but not many. Planned classics include Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Journey to the West, and The Three-Body Problem; the selection of online novels is still undecided.

In the history of this setting, the biggest turning point comes at the end of the Qing dynasty:

Emperor Gao, Taizu of the Mo dynasty, Zhou Zeping, rose from humble beginnings and spent twenty-eight years fighting campaigns north and south to unite the land. At the founding of the new dynasty, since the Qing dynasty had been associated with the element of water, and earth overcomes water according to the theory of the Five Elements, the Zhou clan, self-proclaimed followers of the ancient Mohist school, named their dynasty the Great Mo. It was also called Mo Hua or Dragon Mo. Since the imperial surname was Zhou, it was commonly known as Zhou Mo, and ordinary people often proudly called themselves “people of the Mo.”

The iron cavalry of Great Mo swept across the Nine Provinces, fighting countless bloody battles. In the north, they braved the ice and snow to secure thousands of miles of frontier defenses and divide the desert plateau into separate territories. In the south, they held the mountains and rivers, reclaimed the ancestral lands of Jiaozhi, and established the Five Provinces Beyond the Clouds. To the west, they campaigned across the grasslands, reclaimed the old territory of Zhaowu, and watered their horses on the shores of Lake Ba. In the east, they guarded the sea with ironclad fleets, shielding the Korean Peninsula. They also secured Taiwan, reclaimed the Nanyang, annexed Australia, built impregnable defenses, and extended their power to distant lands, bringing prosperity to the people within the Nine Provinces and keeping powerful enemies at bay beyond the Eastern Sea.

The realm's vastness surpassed all previous dynasties, and its military glory far outshone that of the Han and Tang!
