Second, aside from the characters needed to move the protagonist’s story forward, most of the characters closely reflect historical fact. The customs, daily life, and even prices mentioned in the novel have all been researched. In the later stages, the protagonist w 3Reads—Score—Shelves

   The market is flooded with lighthearted, fast-paced novels, and there are too many fast-paced, enjoyable reads. I've also clicked on many highly-rated books, only to find after a few chapters that the writing was poor or the plot was deliberately made less engaging. If you want books that require thought and are worth savoring, I recommend these: *Langya* needs no introduction; it's like drinking strong liquor, very exciting, but its downside is that sometimes the logic becomes illogical, like remembering dozens or hundreds of mistakes made by the Minister of State, or his flawless strategies. *Jiuzhou* is more like sipping fine tea; the logic is smooth, the writing is good, and many insights are well-received. Its downside is the slow pace, too many ensemble characters, and too many subplots, like *Game of Thrones*. Sometimes just as you're getting into it, it abruptly jumps to another plot. The remaining books are classics and don't require much...

    Each book has a different worldview; choose whichever you like based on the synopsis. Books 1 and 2 are slightly angsty, book 3 is pure enjoyment with two strong protagonists, and books 3, 5, 6, and 10 are by the same author. Don't be fooled by the synopsis of book 6; you'll love it after reading a couple of chapters. Book 10 is still ongoing, but it's incredibly good. One scene that particularly impressed me is when the protagonist says: "XXX, the justice of the court has marinated you thoroughly."
