I love fight scenes, but I love stories where the protagonist counters every move even more. They’re always full of unexpected thrills.

Advisor-Style Historical Novels: Civil Officials and Military Generals
I've read all the books on this list, and bought most of them. I like stories about harmonious relationships between rulers and their ministers, not the romantic couples you usually see in female-oriented fiction. It's a personal preference of mine. I looked around Qidian and couldn't find a list dedicated to this, so I made one myself. These are all stories about serving the ruler, not fighting for supremacy, where neither the protagonist nor their descendants ever rebel, right through to the

Novels I Like with No Female Lead or Just One
I'll note whether a book has no female lead or a single female lead, along with any major dealbreakers. I removed Late Ming and The Ming Dynasty's Benefactor because they kept getting flagged for supposedly prohibited words and wouldn't pass review. Neither is strictly a no-female-lead story, though. The Ming Dynasty's Benefactor is good and basically has no female lead; I really like it. Both male leads in Late Ming end up with more than one woman, so skip it if that's a dealbreaker. I also rec

The protagonist does not ascend the throne. There is nothing wrong with this generation. When Zhu Youxiao has a child and the child grows up, it is time to wake up. There is a conflict between uncle and nephew, and there are also the descendants of the male protagonist. Will they still have a good relationship? Even if the male protagonist runs away and dies, let's not mention that his children will either be killed in the future, or he will return to the Ming Dynasty and become the main guest. Let's just say that the current ministers under the male protagonist are willing to do so? So it's better for Zhu Youxiao to die. It's the best thing to do if you're not in his position and not pursuing politics. You, a prince, have done so many things for the emperor. Even if the emperor doesn't mind at the moment, what about after he has a child, will the child want power when he grows up? The imperialists are not afraid of you? Okay, even if the male protagonist hands over power in the future and runs away, will your ministers be willing? Is your child willing? When two tigers fight, one of them will die. In the struggle for power, you will live and die. Under the biological desire, humanistic family ties are vulnerable, because this desire is not just for yourself, your children, your subordinates, your wife, coveting you... Not only do you have to take care of yourself, can you take care of the ambitions of all sentient beings? Sail against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Being passive and ascending is not a lie. The protagonist is too naive, and there are certain paths that cannot be solved by washing hands in a golden basin. Washing hands in a golden basin is a fairy tale among martial arts fairy tales.
I am an old book friend who has been following this book since it was written. I feel that many of the problems pointed out in recent posts are there, but the flaws are not hidden. What attracted me to read this book and spend money to reward it for the first time was always the author's relative sophistication and rationality. I also rewarded because I hope more will appear. Such a work with data research has appeared, and the promised reward has been given out after writing 200 chapters. I hope the author will continue to work hard and maintain his own style. There is no need to listen to everything the readers say. The key is to stabilize his outline and writing logic
Various political parties and their representative forces during the Tianqi period in the late Ming Dynasty
I found that many book friends did not know much about the parties and representative interests in the late Ming Dynasty, so I wrote a special analysis. The first is the Donglin Party. Many people now think that the Donglin Party was a strong supporter of maritime trade in the late Ming Dynasty. However, the Donglin Party members come from all over the world, so the internal divisions are severe. For example, Yang Lian and others represented the poor peasants and rich peasants in the late Ming Dynasty. Gao Panlong, Hui Shiyang, Qian Qianyi and others represented the gentry class. Liu Yijing and others represented the squire and landlord class. In fact, there are many conflicts within the Donglin Party, and it is difficult to unify opinions when impeaching some people. For example, the struggle between Xiong Tingbi of the Chu Party and Wang Huazhen of the Donglin Party. Yang Lian and other Donglin Party members insisted on saving Xiong Tingbi of the Chu Party, while the rest of the Donglin Party wanted to protect Wang Huazhen. There were many such things, and the Donglin Party itself was a loose organization. In addition, the butt determines the head, because it represents the rich peasants and landlords, so the commercial tax has no interest dispute with them, and the only thing related to them is land tax. So the Donglin Party advocates light land tax, waste mine tax, simplifying and increasing commercial taxes (exempting checkpoints), and increasing commercial taxes, which specifically include fourteen types of taxes (tobacco, wine, tea, iron, deeds, and farming). Because the commercial tax cannot be paid to them, that's why they proposed to collect the commercial tax. The second is the Zhejiang Party, led by Sun Ruyou, the leader of the Zhejiang Party, and assisted by Congzhe. The Zhejiang Party has a loose alliance with the Qi Party, Chu Party, Fujian Party, Kun Party, Xuan Party, and other parties. And Fang Congzhe was the teacher of Qi Party leader Qi Shijiao. The Zhejiang Party represents the gentry class and the merchant class, including maritime merchants. The Zhejiang Party's proposition is to abolish mining taxes, reduce commercial taxes, and reduce land taxes. To put it bluntly, land, salt, iron, wine, tea, deeds, and other taxes are all related to them. In fact, they were the most powerful party in resisting taxes in the late Ming Dynasty. During Shen Guan's reign, they reduced the Ming Dynasty's commercial tax from 30 to 1 to 50 to 1, and often evaded taxes. In order to make money, sometimes Cao grain and Cao silver shipped to the north were deliberately detained. The reasons will be written later in the book. The third party is the Chu Party. The leader of the party is Ying Zhen, who mainly represents the small landlords and the big landlord class. They advocate light land tax and waste mine tax. To put it bluntly, they advocate whatever is relevant to their interests. No one wants the tax to fall on themselves. The fourth Qi Party, headed by Qi Shijiao, mainly advocates light land tax, waste mine tax, light railway tax, and light salt quota. The classes represented are mainly salt merchants, maritime merchants, and landlords. The fifth clan is the second most criticized clan. The clan class actually represents only the feudal king himself. During the Wanli period, the imperial examination system for ordinary clan officials was gradually relaxed, but the clan's mud could not hold up the wall. The royal family of the Ming Dynasty paid a fixed salary of 1.5 Million taels regardless of the clan's population. Regardless of the number of clan members, the Ming Dynasty only gave 1.5 Million taels, and it began to default on payments during the Wanli period. As for the vassal kings, they mainly occupied the fields, such as the king of Shu, the king of Fu, the king of Chu, and the king of Zhou, who occupied most of the fields of the vassal state. Of course, there is also the Kundang Party in Suzhou, which is also the main anti-tax force of the Jiangnan Party. In addition, there is the Xuan Party in Southern Zhili, which is now the party in Anhui and is also the main force in the tax resistance. In addition to these parties, there are also some small rural parties, such as the Sichuan Party in Sichuan, the Min Party in Fujian, the Qin Party in the Guanzhong area, and so on. Party strife in the late Ming Dynasty was actually dominated by Donglin and Zhejiang parties fighting each other most of the time Other parties acted as wallflowers to fan the flames, and the main clan members ate together and waited to die. The main reason for party struggle is clearly stated to be power. In fact, it means pushing the taxes on one's own head and the class behind one's back onto the other party.

This article is not bad because you read it carefully and talk about the advantages and disadvantages. The textual research of this article is very good. The protagonist has firm ideals and likes to use his brother's brainless methods to suppress others. He is quick to explode troops, expand schools quickly, develop weapons and equipment quickly, and farm quickly. . However, the political opponents are mentally retarded, and the narration uses the author's own interpretation of the language. The author attempts to rely on the narration to make readers understand that the stupid political opponents seem to have deep meaning and know how to fight in politics. The protagonist is set up as a wage earner for the emperor's brother. The sense of agency is very weak. He is only born for work. He has no emperor's name. He is more practical than the emperor. He can also maintain a harmonious family with brothers and sisters. The depth of the plot of the article is very superficial and the plot is uneventful. This article is identified as a textual research text on the history of farming. It can be eaten. If you can accept it, students who work hard for your brother can rest assured to read it. If the protagonist himself becomes the emperor, this article will be even better.
I finally understand. The author checked the information, and most of Bang's readers read online articles or marketing accounts.
How can I put it this way? This book is really good, well-founded, and the plot is not naive. It also lays out data, summarizes, and arranges things. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this at first, but now something is getting wrong. Each chapter contains a lot of inventory-type content, listing data, and writing numbers. It is a good thing to have this thing, but there is it in every chapter, and there are many in each chapter, so it is boring to read. Is that just me? 😵
As an ancient emperor's younger brother, if you touch the imperial power, you will not be able to escape death no matter what. What's more, you are a time traveler who can start the Industrial Revolution. When Zhu Youxiao dies and you become the emperor yourself, this book will be quite interesting, because no matter how you write, the readers are all modern people, so they will either rebel or meet Qin Shihuang, there is no other way, personal opinion
As I read it, I felt it was boring, and the protagonist didn't want to be an emperor. There was also an emperor, Zhu Youxiao, who not only survived, but also gave birth to a prince. It's a mess and looks terrible. It would have been nice if Zhu Youxiao had died directly before giving birth to the prince.
After reading Chapter 369, I was wondering why I haven't become the emperor yet. When I looked at the table of contents, I saw, my dear, this book is about pig's feet as an assistant. If you don't want to be lewd, if you don't want to be an emperor, you will go to your own fiefdom when the country is strong. Holy man, you have been reading for a long time and you just wrote this?
