Reader note

The male protagonist accidentally traveled to the Southern Dynasties. In order to survive, he boldly assumed the surname Langya. There was no golden finger, no system, and no second-generation person. Everything started from scratch. Famous scene with high energy. Five people traveled together in the beginning. When they were about to be exposed, they used their wisdom and courage to resolve the crisis (high energy in the beginning). Faced with the revelation of his identity by a high-ranking family member, he just used his mouth to stabilize the situation (walked away from the gate of hell once!). He was framed by Chang Shi and arrested and imprisoned. He was originally going to take the blame, but he arranged a back-up plan in advance to counterattack and take Chang Shi away in one wave (the game is full 😭). Reasons for recommendation Get rid of the routine of traditional brainless historical novels, there is no intellectual behavior, the whole process is high-energy, the plot is rigorous, and one link after another makes people love it. The author has a very high literary quality, refers to a large number of historical facts, the main line follows historical facts, and gives full play to his imagination in other places.
