Reader note

This is a hilarious and touching time-travel wonder. The protagonist Hao Xinren breaks into the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms from the "perspective" of a doctoral student in modern history, but he repeatedly dances on the tip of a knife - escaping beheading by memorizing history books, and saving his life by relying on homophonic jokes. His character design has its own contrasting cuteness. In the main line of escape and survival, the story lays out a grand picture of the changes in the Later Liang Dynasty, the Later Tang Dynasty, and the destruction of Chu Jieyan. Historical nodes such as Zhu Yougui's patricide, Weizhou Mutiny, Liu Wei's death, the Eighth Battle of the Guangbian Army, and the Xingjiaomen Incident are cleverly embedded into the protagonist's embarrassing daily life. Heavy historical facts and light comedy are unexpectedly blended. Different from similar time-travel novels about "counterattack and becoming a king", this work is about "how a small person survives in an era that does not belong to him." Every time Hao Xinren saves the day, there is a gentle gaze on the fate of individuals in the torrent of history. It makes you smile and turn the pages, but when you close the book, you see the lilac plant quietly swaying in the troubled times.

Reader note

The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, first person, slow to gain momentum (watching from the sidelines in the early stage), no system, no golden fingers, no modern technology, no pretense, no brainlessness, no wisdom. It has history, characters, wars, calculations, and strategies. The adopted son usurps power to control the feudal towns, and then unifies the world, and continues the five hundred years of prosperity of the Tang Dynasty! Recommend

Reader note

He is Zhao De, the fourth prince of the empire who is well-dressed and well-fed, but with an imperial order, he hides his name, abandons the honor of being a prince, and joins the battlefield. Starting from an unknown soldier at the bottom, he fought through bloody border crossings and narrowly escaped death, and with his brothers in life and death, he rose step by step in the war-torn world. We meet in the world of mortals, meet a confidant and beauties, hold the affection of our children, and hide the tenderness in our hearts. There are turbulent undercurrents in the court, brotherly suspicions, imperial power struggles, and aristocratic families; on the battlefield in troubled times, famous generals block the road, powerful enemies are around, and life and death are at stake. He has experienced the estrangement between father and son, the estrangement between brothers, the bondage of beauty, the life of close friends, and the fate of powerful enemies. From a humble soldier, he gradually gained military power, established prestige, controlled the frontiers, and shook up the government and the public. He broke through the chess game in troubled times and became king in the world's disputes. The golden thrones are within easy reach of each other; thousands of miles of mountains and rivers are within the palm of your hand. Is it to maintain sincerity and return power to the emperor? Is it to inherit the eternal legacy and ascend to the 9th Five-Year Plan? The ups and downs are up to me! When the troubled times come to an end, and the world bows its head - I wonder who in this world would be better than me!
