The first book: Soul Passing/Southern Dynasties Yongming (there are very few tomatoes in Southern and Northern Dynasties) is really good! I watched it five or six times! Even if he's not finished! It is suspected to be an autobiography written by the author after traveling through time and then traveling back in time. The author is very rigorous and has a lot of knowledge about literature and history. You will gain something new every time you read it. For example, you can pretend to be a "wanderer" next time you travel, hehe. There are notes at the end of each chapter. The author really writes the novel as an essay. The key is that it is not boring at all. Taking into account both popular science and plot, it can be regarded as a book that can be enjoyed by both refined and popular people. You can probably tell the plot from the title of the book, so I won't spoil it. It's so interlocking and super exciting. In the book, no matter he is an unknown person or a child of a high family, every character has an above-average IQ. Those who can survive in the book are all human beings, haha, and the protagonist is even more human. The supporting characters are not tool-like either, they are very three-dimensional. At present, the three main female characters are all excellent and individual, each with their own shining points. The author does not use pornographic accents and is very friendly to female readers. The author's writing style is very sophisticated, concise and concise. For example, at the beginning of the second chapter, "The sun is dim and the grass is ankle deep. In the wild forest, one person escapes and four people chase him, causing numerous frightening insects." In just two sentences, the matter is explained clearly, with a strong sense of picture and substitution. Comment: Fine chaff! Fine chaff! The only shortcoming is that it is still being serialized and updates are relatively slow, but in terms of quality, this shortcoming outweighs its flaws. The second book: Soul Chuan/Ming (Jiajing-Wanli) This is the first historical text I read on Tomato. After reading many similar books, I still think this book is very interesting. To describe it in one word, it is "all things are stable". Although the protagonist and his father are of the same mental age, the way father and son get along is very unique and tender. The author can be said to have brought to life the celebrities of that era, including Wang Shizhen, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Xin Qiji, etc. Comment: Because of this book, I have an unprecedented yearning for Gaoyou's ducks and salted duck eggs. The only awkward part is that the protagonist takes the path of an imperial master and becomes a colleague with Zhang Juzheng. The author's portrayal of Taiyue is quite good, but I really like Taiyue, so I am always dissatisfied. But the protagonist can be regarded as saving the tragedy of Taifu and Wanli. The third book: Fusion of ancient memory and modern memory/Early Han Dynasty This book is very funny, the protagonist is Liu Zhi. The description of Liu Bang in the article is quite good and relatively consistent with history. I really like watching the interaction between the Liu family and his son. The fourth book: overhead/stitching and systematic stitching of many dynasties in ancient times. I like the king! The king is so cute! Super smart baby king, so I personally recommend it. I like articles about children.

If the Ming Dynasty had a "sea control" mentality earlier, would history be rewritten? Facing the world's earliest black slave traders and the ambitious Western powers, the decadent Ming Empire was actually not without opportunities. Unfortunately, most people only see the immediate benefits and cannot see the crises beyond the horizon. Until the man named Zhu Wan appeared and tried to turn the tide. Is his failure a personal tragedy or an inevitable necessity of the times? In this game between pirates and officers and soldiers, we can see too much darkness and glory of human nature.

I recommend this book, the villains are all human beings, and it's a daily story about county officials and common people.

Killing and decisively determine the power, the old sixth prime minister shocked the court! Liu Bai, who traveled through the Qin Dynasty, killed seven thousand rebels with his iron-blooded wrist in his left hand, and swept away the remaining remnants of the Six Kingdoms with his imperial mind in his right hand! The court is full of murderous intent? He directly killed Zhao Gao; the Huns were rampant? Han Xin made a thousand surprise attacks and captured Shanyu alive! Refining elixirs to seek immortality? Backhand Xu Fu into the alchemy furnace! There is no female protagonist in the whole process, focusing on the career line. Let's see how modern souls use thunderous means to reshape the Qin Dynasty's hegemony. Fast pace! Lots of reversals! High energy throughout! History and Machiavellian lovers, hurry up!

A novel that is definitely not intellectually degrading. After a sudden car accident, Xia Ren, a Ph. D. In history and literature, traveled his soul to the Da Jing Dynasty that has never been recorded in history, and was reborn as a seven-year-old child from a farm family who was dying. His family was impoverished and his family was poor, which could not stop the knowledge and insights accumulated in his mind over two lifetimes. The memory of studying the classics in the past life is as clear as yesterday. The collection of classics and history, the rules and regulations, and the way to control the rise and fall of chaos are all in my mind. From Meng Tong who borrowed the light to study at night, to a budding student, he overcame obstacles on the road to the imperial examination with his vision and talents far beyond the times. He won the first prize in the provincial examination, became famous in the general examination, and shocked the emperor in the palace examination. He stepped into the court in a commoner's body, only to find that the officialdom was in turmoil and the undercurrent of party strife was surging. There are traitors at work inside and dangers from the outside. He has to deal with open and covert attacks while also fulfilling his wish to manage the world and benefit the people. Promoting agriculture and mulberry, benefiting industry and commerce, rectifying the government, and ensuring the environment... Step by step, he went from a poor student to the position of a powerful prime minister, writing a legend of "Xiaren", and let the history books of the Jing Dynasty leave a strong mark on this soul that accidentally broke in.

It is a high-quality novel with new themes, a hard-core work for men in science and engineering, low-end, high-end, and slow-burning. It is science fiction, realistic, suspense, and brain-burning. The writing style is eye-catching and logical, the narrative is funny but not boring, and there is no golden finger of the time-travel and rebirth system. The content covers history, workplace, military, scientific research, national security, criminal investigation, scheming, murder, as well as high-tech espionage, hacker warfare, and aerospace electronic warfare. The ending has a profound reversal and is tailor-made for old bookworms. If it doesn't look good, I will kill myself to death!

With modern thinking and hard work, Lu Yang succeeded in becoming the top scorer in high school. I thought I could live a leisurely and leisurely life, but I didn't expect that when the emperor looked at him, who was more handsome than himself, he had a "calculation" in his heart, and said quietly: "Ai Qing is talented, but don't live up to your talent.
