A very beautiful historical novel that makes people unable to put it down and want to put it down. The characters portrayed by the author are lifelike and each has its own merits. The description is delicate and in place, making the reading feel immersive. Five-star praise!
This is a novel about strategy and power struggle. It is so suspenseful and thrilling that you have to follow the story while reading. The beginning of the novel is fascinating. It tells that King Qin died of illness in a sand dune palace and intended to pass the throne to his eldest son Fusu during his lifetime. Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC, conspired with Prime Minister Li Si to tamper with the imperial edict of Qin Shihuang and lie about passing the throne to his youngest son Hu Hai, and forged an edict to kill Fusu and Li Si... The author has profound literary skills, especially a considerable understanding of this period of history. His descriptions are exquisite and wonderful, and his language is fluent. It is worth reading and recommending, and he will be given five-star praise!
At the beginning of the chapter, the settings of Zhao Gao's secret meeting and Qianji Pavilion's web weaving caught your attention! The combination of historical intrigue + the Momen spy network is so right. From the Xianyang teahouse to the Guan Hushan headquarters, the layers of the intelligence network are full of tension. The reversal on the eve of Ziying's execution of Zhao is even more suspenseful. The sense of intrigue and intrigue is straight away, so I'm scheduled to update it!
The elements of history + power struggle + Momen + strategy are blended so smoothly! The author's control of the background of the late Qin Dynasty is very good. Zhao Gao's sinister bird of prey and the warrior's conscience are all established. The setting of Qianji Pavilion, the intelligence network, is novel and interesting. Every foreshadowing is hidden in the game of power. The more you read, the more you get. It is a great book with real potential!
The storyline, with its ups and downs, is very well written. So well written.
A good novel with novel subject matter, clever conception, and a lively pace throughout the text, making it a hearty read.
It's beautiful, the author's writing is sophisticated, the story is full of plot, and the writing is very exciting.
