132 Love and Crown: the Hunting Duke and the Lost Princess WhispersAncient Romance133k WordsOngoing —Reads—Score—Shelves
Reader note
[Angry] Use the "black fairy tale" style to deconstruct the traditional romantic myth of the royal family and draw an anatomy of power. Princess Sera of Lumière escaped from the monastery, killed nobles, faked suicide, and manipulated public opinion. She showed the characteristics of "holy mad criticism", turning religious symbols into weapons, and committing violent acts in a weak manner. [Shock] Duke Mobius, a pathological hunter and self-tearer, his "rabbit fascination" with Sera, the absurdity of his elder brother marrying a bride, and the erotic confusion when being teased by Sera, make him a complex symbol of the intertwining of power and sexual desire. [Note] [Note] The novel combines palace intrigue, supernatural curses, twisted emotions and the main thread of female growth, showing a "tango of two predators". In this game of power and desire, who will be the final winner?

Reader note
In his last life, he calculated everything in the world, but he failed to calculate the emperor's heart. Poisoned wine enters the throat and ends with hatred. In this life, Liu Bowen returned with the "Calculation of the World" system - able to deduce destiny, spy on people's hearts, and reverse the situation of certain death. On the Golden Palace, he sent his political opponents to jail with a backhand; in the Royal Garden, he saved the future prince with one sword. But history has long since departed: the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty colluded with the Demon Sect, King Zhu Di of Yan secretly ate souls, and even Zhu Yuanzhang became a powerful Nascent Soul practitioner who practiced the "Qi of the Human Emperor". What's even weirder is that someone saw through his rebirth and left a message: "Liu Bowen, in this life, you will die more miserably." He didn't believe it. Support the prince, collect Xuannv, kill the devil, and fight against the human emperor. When the cold and beautiful Shen Hengwu spent all his cultivation for him, his eyes turned red for the first time: "I don't want the world, I just want you." Changing fate against the will of heaven begins with this chapter. # Rebirth #Liu Bowen cheating # Scheming #System counterattack #Sadomasochism ceiling

Reader note
I originally wanted to wait for death and become a salted fish, but unexpectedly I became an immortal by lying down and became a god by fishing. Chu Xiu leveraged the Dawu Dynasty with the philosophy of playing tricks - the richest woman, the representative of the imperial merchants, and the fish-fishing emperor he taught, all played "lay down and win" to the extreme. I wanted to take the severance package and run away, but I was worshiped by thousands of people. The biggest misunderstanding in the world is: everyone is working hard, but he is the only one who is serious about messing up. [Blessed soon]

Reader note
Book review title: "While others are writing about "taking over the world", he is writing about "saving the world" - a northern epic that subverts your understanding of historical fantasy." Amidst the hustle and bustle of countless online articles vying for the protagonist to "become emperor in three years and unify in five years", one work quietly squatted down, picked up a handful of scorched earth, and buried a potato. This is not a cool article, it is a solemn inquiry on "what is governing the world". With amazing writing power, the author restores the Anshi Rebellion from a feudal rebellion to the scene of the systematic collapse of civilization: the imperial court relied on eunuchs to survive, the border troops were empty due to redeployment, and the people were crushed like grass between Tang and Yan. The protagonist, Li Qingtian, does not have a golden finger to change his fate. He only relies on his fire power to play with people's hearts and builds a "Combat for the People" in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood - the dead have no regard for Tang Yan and only care about the common people. The most shocking thing about this book is its ultimate description of "reconstruction": Others write about war, but he writes about collecting the souls after the war: four thousand soldiers' names are carved into the temple, and the remains of all people are buried in brocade; others write about political strategy, but he writes about institutional trust: public trials of war criminals, grain release in charity warehouses, and new laws and regulations are spread everywhere; others write about farming, but he writes about the recovery of people's hearts: Hu merchants dare to hang up lamps, children dare to bury seeds, and old farmers kneel down to offer potato seedlings and say, "The autumn harvest can still be saved." The true sense of epic lies not in the millions of soldiers, but in whether a bowl of hot porridge can be served to a living person. What's even more rare is that all the characters in the book are flesh-and-blood and have self-consistent logic: Guo Ziyi bursts into tears but insists on his integrity; Pugu Huai'en raises his troops to clear the emperor's side but refuses to surrender to the north; Yang Mi issues an edict in the name of "commoner" to shake up Shilin in Chang'an... They are not tool men, but real souls torn apart by the times. And the fantasy elements? The Buddha lotus in the left eye, the magic pattern in the right eye, the whispers of the ancient gods, and the black sun hanging in the sky - but these have never taken over the spotlight. They are just mirrors that reflect human nature: the greatest devil is never in the abyss, but in people's despair for order and acquiescence to tyranny. The book also hides a grand vision: from the Yingzhou Rebellion to the Anshi War, from Longyou and Tubo to the eastward expansion of food, the author tries to reveal that the decline of the Tang Dynasty was not due to one thief, but because the entire system lost the ability to "make the people dare to believe in tomorrow." If you are fed up with the routines of "Determined killing = mindless massacre" and "Ploy = stabbing the whole family in the back"; if you are eager to see a work that has the coldness of "Zi Zhi Tong Jian" and the warmth of "The people are tired, but they can be well-off" in "The Book of Songs"; then, please enter this northern border. Here, the hero does not rely on slaughtering the city to prove his truth, but on letting a child dare to plant seeds beside the grave to declare: China is not dead, but just reborn.

The fundamental reason why "Ember Record" transcends ordinary fictional historical novels is that it not only tells the past, but also illuminates the present; it not only records history, but also thinks about the future; it is not only a novel, but also a mirror, allowing us to see: at every historical crossroads, personal choices, no matter how small, have their meaning; the fire of civilization, no matter how weak, is worth guarding.

The good-for-nothing prince was conferred the title of prince in a poor border county, but was frightened to death by bandits at the beginning. The protagonist travels through time with great force, performs a palace stunt, crushes the bandits' sexual audacity, confiscates everything in one sentence, and lays the foundation for making a fortune. From then on, he started a happy life of farming, raising soldiers and conquering the world, and picking up girls when he had nothing to do. There is no system. The protagonist knows some medical skills and can read illustrated cheats. The story is compact, light-hearted and funny. After reading it for a long time, it feels like the spring breeze blowing on your face, waking you up from alcohol and moisturizing everything silently. Unknowingly, the fatigue of the day was relieved++
