   Although this is a fanfiction, it's really engaging. My favorite part is the Genghis Khan volume. Starting from chapter 528, Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Taizu of Han, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Emperor Taizu of Song, Emperor Taizu of Ming, and Genghis Khan become close brothers. It's a truly hilarious situation, but they genuinely redeem and encourage each other. It warmed my heart and moved me to tears many times. Before, I thought Genghis Khan was lonely, and I only read about him and his narcissistic tendencies. I thought no one understood him better, could work with him to achieve a better future. But this volume really surprised me; it's so well-written. "Although they had different statuses and different environments, they were all undoubtedly leaders and decision-makers in their respective circles. They had long since embarked on their own solitary paths. But when they came together, they no longer needed to hold back. They could laugh and cry as they pleased, fight with all their might as well. Because they were all more certain than ever that the people around them were companions they didn't need to deliberately stop and look back on." I stayed up until 2 a. M. That night, my pillow was soaked with tears, I cried like a baby, especially the epilogues by Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang. This whole volume had such a powerful aftertaste, sob sob. I rarely see Genghis Khan in other books, but I was completely hooked on this one. It's one of the few books I've read that didn't feel out of character. The monologues of Liu Shan and his regent were also very moving. This book is truly one of those where even if there are some minor flaws or issues, you can ignore them and continue reading, or just read the parts you like. I saw some readers in the comments section drop the book because of some minor issues, which I really regret. The author is definitely improving, and this book is definitely worth reading.

   ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐A rare pure female-centric novel set in the Eastern Han and Three Kingdoms period. The first-person perspective provides an incredibly immersive experience, the romance is delicately crafted, and the adversaries are equally intelligent. The female protagonist steadily grows stronger, conquering the land, building her harem, navigating between different factions, and engaging in a complex web of scheming and deception with the male lead. Her political acumen and intelligence are on full display!

   Single female lead, no system, the male lead wins entirely through his intelligence and silver tongue. If you prefer a dual male lead story, that's fine too. The female lead has very little screen time. Straight men tend to be ruthless when writing about friendship, like the love-hate relationship (mutual sabotage) with Zhuge Liang, and the nemesis with Cao Cao (the protagonist betrays him, yet he still wants to bring him back and forgive him; the male lead even copies his poem beforehand to annoy him, but he thinks the male lead and he are of one mind—is that really true?

   The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period is a slow-burn story (you can only watch from the sidelines in the early stages). There is no system, no cheat codes, no modern technology, no showing off, no mindlessness, no stupidity, and no melodrama. There are characters, history, war, and scheming. It emphasizes strategy, with an adopted son usurping power and controlling the regional warlords, eventually unifying the world and continuing the five-hundred-year-old Tang Dynasty!
