   I read the first two books every day; the plots are coherent and exciting, perfect for when you're looking for something to read. The third book is also good; I haven't read many pages yet, but the plot is engaging, and it's already finished. You can collect and download it to watch offline, which can also help you when you're looking for something to read. Compared to the first two, I personally feel the writing style of the third book is a bit lacking. After all, everyone has different reading habits, and what suits you best is the best.

   I've read over 700 chapters so far. To be honest, it's gotten a bit dull since Prime Minister Ning's defeat and departure. While the plot and characters involve other countries, there's been too much focus on the people from the capital. At this stage, I'm more looking forward to seeing more development on key figures in the relationships between nations and powers, such as whether the Japanese general could collude with Prime Minister Ning, and how they would arrange their plans. Please don't spend too much time on the supporting characters from the early stages. When I started reading, it was around 9.3, Then it was 9.1 A few days ago, and now it's down to 9. I believe this is related to the rather bland plot in the middle.
