   I highly recommend this excellent book! Some books rely on fortuitous encounters for the protagonist to level up, but this one relies on sheer hard work. He works during the day and cultivates at night; while others sleep, he's breaking through his acupoints. He's the most hardworking member of the Imperial Guards, and reading him made me feel too embarrassed to give up.

   I'd like to recommend a novel called "The Embroidered Uniform Guard's Seizure of the Throne," a fictional story set in the Jinyiwei (Imperial Guard) universe. It's a story without a system, blending political intrigue with the martial arts world. The protagonist starts as a low-ranking officer in the Southern Garrison, carefully navigating the complex relationships between various factions. If you enjoy power struggles, cunning characters, and plot twists, this might be a good read!

   [Learned] This novel is truly a recent gem! The protagonist is incredibly realistic—greedy for money and afraid of death yet steadfast in his principles, stingy and cautious yet shrewd and resourceful, making it impossible to put down until you're laughing. The plot is well-paced and the pacing is excellent, weaving solid historical details into the lighthearted narrative: from the official system to the prices of goods and services, the author has a thorough understanding of the Ming Dynasty background, allowing readers to gain knowledge while enjoying the story. Overall, it's humorous and engaging, with vivid characters, making it more enjoyable than many highly-rated works.

    These three books are worth reading. The third one is the best; the protagonist rises step by step to the pinnacle of power and martial arts, wielding a single blade to overthrow a chaotic regime and declare, "I rule the world!" The first book has a bit of a "The Deer and the Cauldron" feel to it, with the protagonist resembling Wei Xiaobao, always surprising everyone. The second book features a protagonist with a built-in "physical and mental pleasure system," and his main character is prone to sudden outbursts of madness, saying things like, "Don't mess with me, or I'll scatter your ashes!"
