"No one who establishes a dynasty without merit becomes emperor," and the male protagonist embodies this saying. This is a fictional historical novel set in the Northern and Southern Dynasties period, featuring multiple female leads. However, the female leads are not merely decorative; they possess independent personalities and engage in back-and-forth interactions with the male protagonist. The male protagonist is decisive in accepting women—including empresses of fallen kingdoms, noblewomen of the Qiang people, princesses from other ethnic groups, and pampered daughters of powerful families—he accepts them all. The writing style has a touch of Qidian (a popular Chinese web novel genre).

During the Yongjia era of the Western Jin Dynasty, famine ravaged the land of Bingzhou like locusts. Shi Le witnessed his people starve to death in ditches, only to be abducted by government troops like livestock. On his way to be escorted, he was startled to hear the deafening sound of drums and horns at the east gate of Luoyang; a prophet said it was the sound of a king. Now a slave, he shouldered heavy shackles in the fields of Shi Huan, a wealthy man in Chiping. The wheel of fate began to turn slowly under the blood-red setting sun… The fifth year of Yongjia, winter. Wuxiang, Shangdang, Bingzhou, at the foot of Beiyuan Mountain. The sky was a leaden-gray iron curtain, heavily pressing down on the parched earth. A north wind swept through, not with snow, but with a sky full of yellow dust, mixed with withered grass and fallen leaves, swirling and howling as it rushed towards the low, dilapidated thatched huts and earthen walls. Not a trace of snow remained on the ground, only the crisscrossing, fist-deep cracks of drought demons greedily sucking up the last vestiges of life. In the furrows of the field, the scorched stubble stood upright, like withered claws of the earth desperately reaching towards the sky. "Heavens above... Open your eyes!" A hoarse wail echoed from beneath the old locust tree at the village entrance, long since dead and stripped of its bark. An old woman huddled in the cold earthen burrow, tightly clutching a child who was nothing but skin and bones, the child's face sallow.

A useless prince was appointed as a prince in a poor border county, only to be scared to death by bandits right from the start.

I recommend a historical novel set in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, based on the Records of the Three Kingdoms and the Book of the Later Han. It features no system, no cheat codes, no power-ups, and no superpowers. The most compelling aspect of this novel is its rigorous and respectful approach to history—no individual can overturn the course of history, much less change the fate of a dynasty's collapse. The only "advantage" the author possesses is a broader understanding of historical trends than the ancients, and this understanding requires careful verification within the "blind spots of historical detail," yielding rewards only through personal effort and wisdom.
