I want high-quality historical fiction that’s engaging and doesn’t dumb things down or rely on brainless plots. It can be satisfying, but don’t treat readers like idiots. No stories like the one where the protagonist fools Cao Cao’s quartermaster about the provisions from the start, or those where a literati protagonist suddenly has the strength of a tyrant. They’re unoriginal and mindless...

Reader note
I have always liked history, and I wanted to write a refreshing story about traveling through the Northern Song Dynasty, but gave up after reading the historical materials. Wang Anshi himself was the most powerful time traveler in the Song Dynasty. He used a set of reforming boxing techniques that were thousands of years ahead of his time. He was able to conquer the civil and military forces of the dynasty, but in the end he was alienated from his family and was infamous for thousands of years. Understand the official history and explain it thoroughly in vernacular. Let's see why this famous official who looked like a time traveler changed the Song Dynasty too quickly and why he lost completely.

The first one is Li Chengqian, who made Li Shimin rebel. The second book is fantasy, in which emperors from various Ming Dynasty planes can travel to different periods of the Ming Dynasty. The protagonist in the third book has 100 lives, and the fourth book is a fictional novel. The protagonist is comparable to a combination of Cheng Yu and Jia Xu. The fifth book begins with Qin Shihuang talking about rebellion, the sixth is also a fictional story, and only the seventh has a heroine as the main character. It's so funny that I can roll over on the bed and laugh uncontrollably.
