Emperor Taizu of Song

That's going too far. You're the emperor! Heroes and martyrs deserve respect, and paying respects is reasonable, but the emperor kneeling down is truly shocking. This is a feudal society. Let alone ancient times, even in modern times, after so many years since the founding of the country, which leader has ever knelt down to martyrs?

Zu is usually the title given to the founding emperor of the country. You, an emperor who has done countless things, are not ashamed to call you Zu.

Abolishing eunuchs is going too far. Most eunuchs were castrated voluntarily to enter the palace, or were prisoners of war, criminals, or even people who wanted to be eunuchs but couldn't. How can you force ordinary people to do that? It's one thing if the protagonist doesn't have a harem, but won't future emperors? The protagonist always projects a modern perspective, thinking himself a saint—it's too cruel.

So, your protagonist's throne is legally inherited from your father, and you dare call yourself an ancestor? What, did you usurp the throne and shift the lineage? Anyone with a proper history education can tell at a glance that you didn't legitimately inherit the throne; you're obviously a usurper.

In reality, the fighting strength of the lower-ranking soldiers in the Song Dynasty was never weak; they weren't as easily defeated as depicted in novels. What the Song Dynasty lacked was generals, and more importantly, the autonomy to produce renowned generals. If a truly great general had emerged, the Song army would have been in a frenzy!

Sentimentalism, more sentimentalism, and more sentimentalism! The emperor washing his feet, kneeling, self-degradation... Is your strategy for repelling the enemy just to emotionally appeal to loyal ministers to save the country? Even if you do nothing and just sit and watch the Jin army attack, they won't be able to break into Kaifeng.

There are actually people trying to whitewash Zhao Guangyi? One of the most disgusting emperors in history!

You're truly the first person in history to force a rebellion with mere words. To seize power without a single soldier, relying solely on your words, and yet you claim to have fought in Kaifeng, along the Yellow River, and against the Jurchens—a whiff of youthful madness emanates from you. Such a toxic book, and yet it's even made it onto the Sanjiang list! I honestly don't know what to say.

He's always trying to kneel down to ordinary people, he wants to kneel down to everyone he sees. It's so awkward, so incredibly awkward.

What the hell are these "experts" writing these days...? Victory belongs to the Song Dynasty, glory belongs to the people... Bowing 90 degrees... Is it someone else writing it for them, or is it just some utter rubbish?
