Faithful to the historical record, with believable customs and human relationships, and the author's own interpretation of historical figures and events. The values are sound, the writing is strong, and the dark chapters of history are handled in a satisfying, cathartic way, without sanctimonious do-gooders or foolishly trusting idealists.

Do you really believe that after over 1000 chapters, the emperor, leading a personal expedition, would still be captured? For some inexplicable reason, he always lets the Liao Dynasty go at crucial moments, then offers various explanations, only to be forcibly captured again! One hundred million people fighting three million, and then forced into peace talks.
This is a rare gem of a book. Although it's a system-based novel, the author clearly tries to downplay the system's role. The author genuinely reforms the Song Dynasty step by step, leveraging its strengths and mitigating its weaknesses, making the most suitable changes during the Northern Song's golden age.
This is a good story, and the writing is quite good, but I feel there's a major flaw: the way the protagonist treats women is a bit off. Of course, I'm not saying it necessarily involves physically or verbally abusing women, but in ancient times, for a crown prince, a future emperor, and one who would become a powerful ruler like Emperor Wu, isn't this a bit strange?
This crown prince is incredibly stupid. Supreme power must not be shared, and titles and privileges must not be lent to others. Distributing imperial power among the empress is tantamount to courting death.
The protagonist is like a lustful demon in his quest to build a harem.
Where's the author? Why aren't you answering my questions? You're praising such a terrible emperor like Zhao Er with your miscellaneous historical knowledge? Where did you get the link to the article about Zhao Er's ability to defeat Cao Bin? Post the link! 😤

I just started reading. The author wrote quite diligently, but there are also significant flaws. The protagonist is portrayed as too self-centered, failing to immerse the character in the historical figure of Zhao Zhen. While the protagonist's fear of loneliness is understandable, it's written too arbitrarily.
Scholars, farmers, artisans, and merchants; the Three Obediences and Four Virtues—you think that was just empty talk? A merchant's daughter dared to treat the Crown Prince like that? The Emperor massaging the Empress's legs? The Empress should step down! Even if the Emperor himself wanted to, the Empress wouldn't dare. What is the meaning of hierarchy?
Five samples for testing, then I'm outta here!
A must-read for readers!! I looked at five pictures and then left. The very first picture reveals a little girl named Mei, who shares the same name as his ex-girlfriend, Wang Yuyan! (Mr. Jin Yong might be furious!) The journey was fraught with danger. In Chapter Five, an eight-year-old boy exclaimed, "It's so alluring! Take her away quickly, I want to see the princess!"
Why does an emperor always have to personally lead troops into battle? If you want to be a general, why not be a prime minister? The most important thing for an emperor is to recognize talent, put the right people in the right positions to do the right things, balance the court, and clean up the bureaucracy. You have a share in whatever achievements your subordinates make, so why do you have to do everything yourself?
