   Teacher San Sha Er Feng is amazing. Her writing can help you understand what those terms you learned in history and politics books really mean. I was truly enlightened by her Xuanwu Gate live stream story. Before, when I read historical fiction, I only read about infrastructure development and technology, just for the sake of enjoyment (not that it's bad, infrastructure stories are always good and enjoyable, but the development of ideas also needs to keep up). The greatness of the humanities!

    Incomplete. I hate the Song Dynasty, I hate the feudal old regime, and the fact that this emperor was actually considered a good one makes me hate the Song Dynasty even more. The author's personal style is quite strong. I'm getting a little tired of reading it. There's more scientific information than plot in the main text, and the main character's personality is somewhat off-putting. I've already given up on the story; that lingering sense of arrogance is just too strong.

    Emperor Taizong of Tang, Emperor Shi Huang of Qin (with extensive content on Emperor Gaozu of Han), Emperor Wu of Han, and Empress Wu Zetian. These are the four main periods. It covers many aspects, including systems, technology, ideological development, and historical perspectives. Much of the content and viewpoints are things I hadn't encountered before. In my opinion, it's the best historical livestream I've ever watched. Books of this kind rarely contain content about ideology. This book's views on abolishing the Shang Dynasty's human sacrifice, the concepts of unification and orthodoxy, the idea of ​​people-oriented governance, modern historical perspectives, and historical evaluation systems are all very interesting and broaden one's horizons. The section on Emperor Wu of Han is so well written! It describes the sun of the Han Dynasty as so bright, dazzling, and passionate. It's truly brilliantly written, and I've become a die-hard fan. Some of Qin Huang's comments are controversial, but I personally find them acceptable. The streamer was unaware of the situation and there was almost no interaction.
