   The snow crunched beneath his feet. Thousands of gazes, almost tangible, focused on him—curiosity, scrutiny, awe, and, like Liu Cong, undisguised contempt and hostility. Shi Le seemed oblivious, his brownish-yellow eyes calmly meeting the figure in black robes in the center of the pavilion. His steps were slow, yet each one was firm, carrying a composed air forged through life and death. His scarred face and straight spine stood like a weathered yet unyielding iron statue in the cold wind. Ten paces from Liu Yuan, Shi Le stopped. He knelt on one knee, clasped his hands in a fist, and spoke in a loud voice that pierced the cold wind: "This humble general, Shi Le, has led his troops to surrender! I am grateful to Your Majesty for not abandoning me and entrusting me with such an important task! I, a mere Jie slave, have received such extraordinary favor, and I dare not fail to repay it with my life!" His posture was respectful, yet without a trace of obsequiousness, only an open and heroic spirit. A hint of admiration flashed in Liu Yuan's eyes. He stepped forward and firmly supported Shi Le's arms with both hands: "General Shi, please rise! I have been waiting for you as I have been waiting for rain after a long drought!" His hands were warm and strong, and his gaze was intensely fixed on Shi Le's face, as if trying to see through the skin to discern the astonishing power hidden beneath. "General, at the foot of Feilong Mountain, your cry of 'Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny?' Resounded like a great bell, deafeningly clearing the mind!!!"

    This book is of good quality, but it's probably because it contains scenes of confiscating wealthy families' property, leading to the perception that the author was manipulated by capitalists, resulting in a pitifully small amount of data. [Laughing emoji]

    Sharing three historical web novels that I absolutely loved! Both the writing and the story are top-notch! * **The Legacy of the Ming Dynasty** - An epic ensemble piece. Highlight: The author is a master of plot structure! Despite its length and large cast of characters, the story unfolds steadily and without any sense of disarray. Most remarkably, the protagonist, Zhu Yunwen, as a time traveler, seamlessly integrates into the Ming Dynasty's timeline, making me almost forget his modern identity later on, completely immersed in the story and feeling incredibly connected! * **I, the Immortal of the Ming Dynasty, Through Sixteen Emperors** - A historical epic with powerful staying power. Highlight: The emotional impact of this book is delayed. Watching the protagonist experience the changing dynasties and witness the passing of familiar emperors and ministers, especially after Yu Qian's death, the sense of loneliness of that era truly brought me to tears. It's not just about immortality, but also about eternal loss and remembrance. * **The Rise of the Three Rivers** - A promising new work. Highlight: A new work I just started reading, and so far, the setting and writing are very solid, just my style. I've decided to continue! What these three books have in common is their excellent writing, clear and concise storytelling, making them very enjoyable to read. Those of you experiencing a reading slump should definitely give this a try!
