   Reader note

   The book is alright; many of the inventions are things I haven't seen in other novels (maybe I just haven't). Li Zhao is a good person, and the characterizations of the other ministers, princes, and emperor are also vivid. However, after reading a lot, I started to get bored; it's a bit bland, or rather, there's too much description of mundane days (I think some steps could be described more generally, without going into too much detail, just my personal opinion). Since it's a novel, the development is starting to resemble a diary, a diary of Li Zhao's rise to power and the founding of his kingdom [facepalm].

    Well, I don't really know. The first two books are worth reading carefully; they're very well-written, detailed, and have a lot of flavor. They're the kind of books you can slowly savor and appreciate. The third book has a different style, but it's very funny with a touch of angst, just a tiny bit. The last book is incredibly funny; I've read it several times and still find it endlessly enjoyable. It's the kind of book I'd reread whenever I think of it. When I read books, I usually remember certain plot points or character names, like Han Yunxi and Long Feiye in *Little Poisonous Consort*, Tian Zhan and Xi Bao in *Possessing Jiang Xi*, the space-based sweep in the first book, and the space-based farming in the second. These are my favorites; you won't regret reading them.

    A pinnacle of political intrigue novels! An Eastern version of "Game of Thrones"! I devoured over 300 chapters in one go and couldn't stop! It avoids the clichés of mindless wish-fulfillment stories; every step is a twist, and the power struggles between the four kingdoms are brilliantly portrayed. Qi Ming's journey from a passive escape to mastering strategy and manipulating people's hearts—the sense of oppression and exhilaration as he climbs from the bottom—is absolutely amazing. Even the supporting characters aren't just plot devices; each has their own stance and calculations, making even the villains charismatic! Set in an alternate Eastern history, it features political intrigue, palace intrigue, large-scale wars, and a grand narrative of the world. It's a truly epic historical narrative. The cast is large, but each character is distinct, with almost no stereotypical figures. The depiction of human nature and the human heart is incredibly nuanced.

Starting as a nameless soldier, he fought his way up the frontier, facing death countless times, and forged his own path with his sworn brothers amidst the chaos of war. In the world of romance, he encountered kindred spirits, fell in love, and harbored tender feelings. The court was rife with intrigue, brotherly distrust, power struggles, and intrigue among powerful families; on the battlefield, he faced fierce competition, facing renowned generals, formidable enemies, and life-or-death situations. He endured estrangement from his father, estrangement from his brothers, the bond with a beautiful woman, the life-or-death struggle with a close friend, and the destiny of a formidable foe. From a lowly soldier, he rose step by step to command military power, establish his reputation, pacify the frontier, and dominate the court, breaking free from the treacherous game of war and becoming king against all odds.
