I, the Emperor, Am Sick

The author would probably have achieved better results if he had simply changed the title to "(Emperor Longqing)". With the current title, unless someone is desperate for something to read, it's unlikely they'd notice this high-quality work.

After reviewing the top 100 books, I found them to be less than terrible as some reviews suggested. The titles were quite good, and overall, the strengths outweighed the weaknesses. 1. He wasn't bound by the rigid system of vested interests and ties himself to nobles. 2. He always believed in his own strength and used strategic retreat to build his own foundation and army. 3.

The three evils are merely symptoms, but they also reflect the limitations of the times, productivity, systems, and ideologies. Although harmful, they are unavoidable. The imperial clan. Due to the various drawbacks of the feudal system, it was necessary to ensure the legitimacy of the emperor's rule through measures such as reducing the power of the princes, which led to the imperial clan…

The title didn't do it justice; the writing, logic, and even the villains' intelligence are all top-notch. The three great scourges of the Ming Dynasty were the imperial family, the gentry, and the nobles. The nobles in the two capitals, especially in Southern Zhili, possessed an enormous amount of land. These nobles, who supposedly shared the fate of the nation, were the most disgusting.

The core of historical court novels is the operation and reform of power. Business or other aspects are only suitable for setting the stage and should not be described in large parts, especially the identity of a prince.

The author should do more research on history; many things in the book are completely inconsistent with the social reality of the time. For example, the maid Li Caifeng brazenly calls the protagonist "big brother"—who is she, a princess? In ancient society with its strict hierarchical system and supreme imperial power, this is completely unimaginable. Art is called art because it originates from life but transcends it. Detached from reality, that's just wishful thinking.

Furthermore, the death of the Jiajing Emperor felt too abrupt, a plot device seemingly forced to propel the protagonist to the throne! And in a feudal era, the insistence on a single woman was laughable. Feudal emperors demanded many sons, especially considering the vast territories they later conquered, including Australia, the Americas, and Africa.

Supermarkets in the Ming Dynasty... Supermarkets... Supermarkets... Holy crap! Should we set up a courier company to support this? Supermarkets in the Ming Dynasty? I'm speechless.

The first chapter is poisoned. In the Ming Dynasty, without modern hygiene and disease prevention methods, you want to raise five thousand chickens in one place? A royal estate has hundreds of cattle 🥵🥵🥵🥵, do you have any basic knowledge? In the early 2000s, our village was still sharing several cattle. Do you know how big a pasture would be to raise hundreds of cattle?

Every time that little girl called me "big brother," I felt like I was being fed a dose of poison, instantly falling into the clichés of third-rate historical novels, where every woman is showered with sympathy, pampered, and indulged. A little girl calling both a eunuch and a prince "big brother" at the same time?! Is this forced sexual intercourse?
