    I have to mention these: ① The background is similar to The Truman Show, the male protagonist escapes using his high intelligence, it's a pretty lighthearted book. ② Although the male protagonist isn't very smart, he has an external brain, the two of them together are invincible, one is the strength provider and the other is the intelligence provider. Warning: The author pads the word count, the second male lead has a romantic partner. ③ Infinite flow, the protagonist is intelligent, strong, and very handsome, the character development is very successful, it's an ensemble piece, and the author's writing style is also very good. Warning: Too many angst. PS: I'm warning about these because some people don't like Tomato (the author's pen name), not because I don't like it. For example, some people don't like male-female couples and insist on male-male relationships, and some people don't like angst.

    Absolutely! This novel is of such high quality as a historical romance or a serious drama, with the potential to become a timeless classic. If it were adapted into a TV series, this novel would be unparalleled! (Please help me rate it!) This novel is high-quality, intellectually stimulating, not mindless, logically sound, and features brilliantly portrayed characters! "Emperor Renzu of Tang" is a nearly million-word novel that concluded in mid-September, with all foreshadowing resolved, plot holes filled, and a clean ending. I recommend reading the comments section of the last chapter first, where the author summarizes the entire novel, which will aid your reading. The author's writing style, word choice, plot structure, imperial strategies, political maneuvering, emotional nuances, military warfare, court intrigue, and governance are all top-notch. His writing is astonishing, his scope grand, his themes lofty, his thoughts profound, his knowledge solid, his cultural background deep, and his political maneuvering superb. If you don't like it after reading it, you can slap me in the face!
