The Great Ming’s Master Thief: The Imperial Guards Forced Me to Investigate a Case

High IQ, Political Schemes, and Mind-Bending Plots

Looking for a Novel So Gripping You’ll Stay Up All Night Reading

Preferably with a female lead. I want a long novel so engrossing I can't put my phone down.

Looking for High-Quality Historical Fiction. No Mindless Power Trips or Brain-Dead Plotting

I want high-quality historical fiction that’s engaging and doesn’t dumb things down or rely on brainless plots. It can be satisfying, but don’t treat readers like idiots. No stories like the one where the protagonist fools Cao Cao’s quartermaster about the provisions from the start, or those where a literati protagonist suddenly has the strength of a tyrant. They’re unoriginal and mindless...

Please Recommend High-Quality Historical or Alternate-History Novels with Highly Intelligent Characters

Anything is fine as long as it isn't brainless and the supporting characters don't suddenly lose all their intelligence.

Are There No Original Stories? They’re All the Same, Like They Were Made from a Template

Looking for books similar to "Transmigrated as a Treacherous Minister’s Legitimate Daughter, She Plays Herself to Perfection".

Looking for a High-IQ Story Where the Protagonist Plans Ten Moves Ahead

Looking for a Pure Wuxia Mystery Set in Ancient Times, Like Chu Liuxiang. No Transmigration

Pure wuxia.

Historical Mystery and Detective Stories Like Judge Bao and Di Renjie

The Pinnacle of Historical Fiction

Looking for books similar to "Tang Dynasty: Defying the Imperial Decree Is the Only Way to Get Stronger". This book makes me cry every time I read it. I've read it five or six times, and I still cry. I just can't believe anything else is better. It's the strongest historical novel in my book! An 8.9 rating is way too low. I'd give it a 9.

Preferably, each case should be resolved within just a few chapters.

Novels with a Protagonist Who Works for the Imperial Court, Like a Brocade Guard or Demon-Suppression Bureau Officer. No Romance

Absolutely no female lead and no romantic ambiguity. No double standards. I want a protagonist who kills men and women alike.

Looking for High-Quality Historical Fiction!

Looking for Ancient Detective Novels, Without a Bunch of Women Competing or Domestic Infighting

I want a novel about solving cases in ancient times. Not one that keeps throwing in a pile of household infighting and rivalry between women. No CP is fine, and I don't want the overall atmosphere to be too heavy either.
