Dusty Dreams of Southern Ming

Looking for Historical Stories: No Womanizers, Romance Optional, or One-on-One

Either male or female leads are fine. No harems or womanizing male leads.

Any Late Ming Dynasty Novels That Can Stand Beside Ke Shan Meng’s Iron-Blooded Remnants?

No System stories, and especially no brainless transmigration stories where the protagonist makes guns and cannons. In short, I want two things: realism!!! Starting from nothing and making progress step by step. It doesn’t have to be set in the late Ming, as long as it’s a time of chaos.

Looking for Completed Historical Novels

Looking for books like My Grandfather Is Zhu Yuanzhang. I have pretty high standards: I won't read anything with a System, or stories where the transmigrated character is in a hopeless situation later on, like transmigrating as Chongzhen in the sixteenth year of his reign, or Dong Zhuo moving the capital to Chang'an. It's not that I don't believe the protagonist can turn things around, but I just feel...
