The second book, written by the same author, tells the story of a character who transmigrates into the body of Li Jinglong, the war god of the Ming Dynasty, and is also quite good. The third book is about transmigrating to the reign of Emperor Chongzhen and leading the Ming Dynasty to its peak. The fourth and sixth books are about Ming Dynasty history; one focuses on Zhang Juzheng, and the other on the history of the Ming Dynasty. The stories of the Ming Dynasty are also widely known. The fifth book is the original novel of the TV series "Da Ming Dynasty 1566"—need I say more about its quality?
