    I am serious about recommending historical novels. The first one has a single female protagonist, and the second one has no CP. The advantages are as follows: [Like] [Like] [Like] [Like] [Love] The first book, the author has a profound literary foundation, and every plot is carefully studied. There are also historical materials at the end of the article. It is very rigorous. At the same time, the plot is also relaxed and measured. The crisis is solved time and time again, and the talent of the protagonist is shown to surprise everyone. It is really cool! But this is by no means mindless fun. The romance is all in line with reality. There are no flat and mindless supporting villains, but the struggles of small people and the dark reality. In the second book, the protagonist travels to the Qin Dynasty and offers advice to Qin Shihuang. This plot is very classic and can be found everywhere on Tomato. So why does this book become my recommendation? Because the plot is reasonable and not deviated from reality. Although it has a system, it does not use the golden finger. It will not create a gunpowder ship in just a few chapters. It will not be in the novice village for hundreds of chapters. The protagonist, Qin Shihuang and everyone work together to create the prosperous age of the Immortal Qin. It is really fascinating! What's more important is that the imagination of this book is amazing!!! But to say any more would be spoilers, so I'll let you explore on your own. Ps: In addition, the sincere relationship between Li Yi and Qin Shihuang, who is both a minister and a friend, is really great!!! He is a confidant! Language expression ability is limited!

In the new book, the male protagonist pretends to be a son of a noble family in the officialdom, and chooses among the old and new emperors to protect the interests of the family.
