Mo Yan's Reading List
I've personally tried these out, and I think they're really good. They're all ongoing historical romances that I'm following, and I like them. Most are currently updating. I usually delete a book once I've finished it, or if I don't like it. I prefer newer books. Haha.

I’m more into historical romance. This list collects some historical romances I’ve read before or am reading now that I think are pretty good.
Feel-Good Fiction: Female-Oriented Novels Should Be Fun to Fight Through Too 🌱
My personal preferences: ① Satisfying stories, where wrongs are avenged and the heroine is strong; ② No romance, or a career-focused plot with romance as a secondary element; ③ Genius protagonists, plot-driven stories, and little or no reliance on cheat powers; ④ Expansive worlds and fresh settings, not pure formula fiction; ⑤ I love fantasy cultivation stories and all the fighting! P.S. If an author has written several good books, I only include one, but the one I picked isn't necessarily their

I've been chasing it for almost a year, it's over, I gave up.
My personal thoughts, I don't know if this can be called a bad ending. The part about being a bandit girl at the beginning is indeed very interesting and fascinating. I have updated it and watched it again and again. The appearance of each character is very full, whether it is the selfish grandmother and uncle or the kind cousin, whether it is the servant or the former owner of the bookstore, they are all flesh and blood. After being forced to appear as Mr. Songling, or Mr. Xin appeared, it began to become boring. Except for the male and female protagonists and their love, everyone else became tools to enhance feelings or forcibly hinder them! I thought it was because there were few updates every day, which made reading emotionally incoherent, but I didn't expect that after reading it for a while, I just wanted to drag the progress bar! For example, the identity given by the emperor to the male protagonist, would it really be possible for a founding emperor to use the son of a brother who wanted to usurp the throne so highly? ! ? ! This position is almost the same as the Governor of Luo in Zhang Huan! ! ! Gave the intelligence network to the enemy's son! ! ! ! Just to make the acquaintance between the male and female protagonists reasonable? Is it reasonable to not allow them to be together later? Don't you think this setting is unreasonable? Then there is the emperor himself, the founding emperor, known for his filial piety, and then? Just say that you are angry with the Queen Mother and show off your face? Can't it be resolved? Can't you just give in to the Queen Mother after the heroine leaves? This? Was filial piety worthy of praise in ancient times? For my daughter, who is also said to be the queen's daughter, I feel guilty and doting on her, but I don't show any actual love. Maybe I love myself the most. I can understand this, so the author shouldn't repeatedly mention how much she loves her. The founding emperor, regardless of his wisdom or force, was replaced so casually? Apart from a eunuch and a male protagonist, there is no one available? But the hero is still the son of an enemy! ! This? Just to give the male protagonist a chance to save the emperor and remove the obstacles between the male and female protagonists? There are also many tool people. Except for using them to promote the plot, there are no other time movies. Like the eunuch who suddenly appeared when he was pretending to be an emperor? I didn't mention anything before, but he suddenly appeared without any explanation of the background. Does that mean that the sudden taste of power made him lawless? ? ? He actually managed to give the heroine the most direct life threat in the entire book? ? ? (Show King doesn't count, he's also very far-fetched) I'm sorry for my inability to accept this kind of airborne landing. Speaking of the Show King, let's talk about it, what does he want? A prince who tolerates his resentment, the way to get his father's love is to marry his sister? Did you just blow yourself up when you saw that Li Hou had no hope of becoming a prince? ? ? Or do you have a few subordinate officials and just want to be a prince? ? After reading the full text, I can already feel the fullness of my efforts. Another example is the eldest princess, her children, the bookstore, and the waiters in the west hall. Except for appearing as a plot promoter when the heroine needs it, there is no personal interaction and the character is thin. Then it was mentioned earlier that the eldest princess's son went to engage in research and development, just to make him disappear? Write fortune-telling, tell paintings, and prepare for fortune. If you meet a noble person and become famous, how can you become successful? Suddenly after the heroine left? I saw Da Da trying to use Xiu Wang's darkening to connect the previous descriptions, but I am no longer curious about the results, they are just tool men. To be honest, I have been chasing Da Da Da books since I started reading. Is Da Da Da not in good condition recently? The second half of the book is particularly lackluster. I don't want to read it anymore. I'm tired of chasing it. I'll see you in the next book, book friends.
I wish that the new book will sell well and build an idiom solitaire building.

Regarding the controversy over the ending, should Xin You be the empress?
First of all, the ending of "Spreading Flowers" and "Ci Jinzhi" can be considered a smooth landing. Although the ending is not as good as my personal expectations, at least the transition is okay and not unfinished. Then let me tell you what I think of the ending and the whole book. Personally, I feel that the root cause of the controversy in the end is actually the gap between the increasingly awakened female thoughts and the old concept of writing. I have been following Liu Da's books since The Tree of Hope. They were astonishing at the time and have always been among the top of my apocalyptic books. The latest one before this was "Zhang Huan", which was also to my liking. But as my thoughts have changed in the past two years, I have found that I can't stand the so-called palace fighting and house fighting. In the end, it is still a culture of cannibalism and woman-eating, including those so-called heroine pleasure stories. Most of the books I liked ten years ago will be spurned by me today. Things that I was not aware of before will only feel ironic if I read them again, and I will be full of complaints. So I never brush it twice so that I can still retain some good impressions. Of course, not only readers, but authors are also advancing with the times. I didn't review the previous book, but the awakening of some women's thoughts in this book is very obvious, and the overall level is average to me. So why is there still some polarizing reviews at the end? I think it's a different audience. Take myself as an example. Nowadays, I basically watch no-cp videos, so I haven't watched Qidian female videos for a long time. It's too easy to disapprove of My Lovely Wife. It was an accident that I opened this book during a book shortage, but because it was an author I like and the content did have something to support me all the way through. So when did I feel that my interest had waned and I stopped following the series? It was when I realized halfway through that the heroine would not be able to ascend the throne and become the empress. If you read too much of the story, you can really see some direction from the context and foreshadowing. If there was a foreshadowing of the princess, it would not be written like this. At that time, I guessed that the ending would most likely be about retreating into the world, and I would inevitably be disappointed. I would like to reiterate here that I am not criticizing the author or insisting that there must be an empress. In fact, it can be seen from the title of the novel that Liu Da did not have this intention at the beginning, but because the writing was so good, it aroused expectations and made people wonder if there is a possibility of further striving for it. You must know that in the novel "The Beautiful Wife", it is impossible for anyone to expect the heroine to ascend the throne. To a certain extent, the author and the readers are going in both directions. It is precisely because the author's awakening consciousness of women in the article has attracted more awakened readers that there are voices of empresses and dissatisfaction with the ending. Personally, I have lowered my expectations so there won't be too much of a psychological gap, and the ending where I was worried about a few thunderstorms was handled very well. But this book still makes me feel a pity, because its setting is very suitable for fighting for power. The heroine has motivation, identity, and ability, which is a very good entry point. But on the other hand, it can also be seen from the reactions in the comment area that more readers do not want to get involved in power struggles and intrigues. Even if the heroine can escape smoothly in the end just relying on the goodwill of the superior, she still has no choice but to live or die. Climbing up is too hard, too bloody, and often unscrupulous. When you want to fight for power, you will find that everyone will become your enemy, so why not choose an easier path? So I can understand the author's writing method. After all, I am in the minority. But after this battle, I finally understood my own feelings. After all, this kind of article cannot satisfy me now. I guess this will be the last Liu Da's book I read. Thank you for the good times you brought me. Goodbye.

The Golden Branches of Different Words The setting sun made the city seem to be made of gold. Under the ancient walls, there was a large flow of people, with foreign businessmen and tourists lining up, waiting for inspection by the guards. "Detour——" After passing the village outside the city, the young man stopped his horse, held the reins and walked slowly towards the end of the team. "Finally arrived in the capital! It's really majestic!" "No way! Where did the little brother come from? Let me tell you, this capital is thousands of years old..." The young man's exclamation aroused the pride of others, and they couldn't help but tell him the pride of being a native of the capital. After entering the city, I randomly found an inn, which was very noisy. It turned out that the first floor was used as a restaurant, and many drinkers chatted about everything. It was very lively. "Waiter! Serve the wine!" "Okay! What would you like, sir?" "Let's have something inexpensive. Let's order some food on the way, the kind that only costs tens of renminbi." The young man threw the baggage and the long object on his back onto the table with a clang, and called the waiter to serve the food. After dinner, I told the shopkeeper to book a room, took the room card, and went upstairs. The young man lay on his back on a clean hard bed, staring at the floor, his thoughts drifting back to home. "I wonder how my parents are doing, it's not easy to manage a big family~" Thinking about the time he stole the sword and some money from home and ran away, and the note he left behind - the world is so vast, the child wants to go out and see -, he couldn't help but laugh. However, even though he had been planning carefully along the way, after a month had passed, only a few taels of the nearly one hundred taels he had withdrawn at the beginning were left. "Well, if I don't find a job, I will have to sell this sword sooner or later, which is unavoidable." "Ah~~~, I don't want to think about it anymore, let's go to bed first." The next morning, after practicing the family kung fu, The young man tied up his long hair, picked up his baggage, and tied his long sword, but he saw a handsome figure. He was so busy yesterday in rushing to enter the city before sunset that he couldn't tell. After washing up today, he saw this plain white robe with a sword hanging on his waist. Yesterday's quaint atmosphere disappeared and was replaced by a bookish atmosphere. He was calm and confident in every move and gesture, but he did not hide the youthful vigor. I checked out of the room to the shopkeeper and looked towards the East City, which is where the common people live and where the famous "East Market" and "Guozijian" are located. "I hope I can find some good jobs. It's best to have food and accommodation included. The salary doesn't have to be high. I only need to play here for a few months before returning to Wanyang, so it's worth going out this time." While strolling around, I came to the door of a study unknowingly. Seeing the crowd, I went over to join in the fun. "Brother, I don't know what's going on, why are there so many people?" "Hi, brother, are you from out of town? Now everyone in the capital knows that Mr. Song Ling from Qingsong Bookstore has released a new version of the novel, and they are rushing to buy two copies!" "I wonder who this Mr. Song Ling is?" "I don't know either, but the previous "Painted Skin" was very good-looking. Although this "Journey to the West" sounds weird, it must be just as good!" Hearing about "Song Ling" and "Journey to the West", the young man looked strange. "I wonder which senior mixed these two together so that Mr. Chengen wouldn't crawl out of the coffin?!" Thinking like this, he followed the crowd into the bookstore and bought a set. "Let's just review it, have fun while also giving some support to the seniors." "Hey, you see, the one over there is Miss Kou, the owner of this bookstore. She is quite pretty~, but the one who is in public is still a lady of the officialdom after all." The supervisor next to him introduced her to him. "Could it be her?" It has been a long time in this life that I haven't seen any of my fellow villagers. Now that I am past Zhixue, I am about to catch up with my age in my previous life, so I finally met one. Naturally, I am very happy. "I'm just looking for a job, I wonder if she will accept anyone." Thinking about this, the young man said: "Master! Are you still looking for assistants? Can I try it out?" Miss Kou over there looked over and smiled and said: "In that case, please come in and talk." When you come to the back room of the bookstore, this wing is quite elegantly decorated. "Your surname is Mr. Yu?" "My surname is Yu. I have been traveling here and am about to run out of money. I happened to see your shop busy, so I wanted to collect some travel expenses." ⋯⋯ "Speaking of which, Mr. Songling seems to be from the same hometown as me. People like us, if we meet each other when we are out, we will know some passwords, maybe we can Let's take care of each other. I wonder if the girl can give me a recommendation?" I can predict what will happen next time. I will explain it next time~ Hey, I feel that the writing is pretty good. I hope the author and book friends can like it or leave a message. I will be very happy
Can we, Xinyou, be the queen? Why should the child born by a cheap father and his concubine inherit the empire that her mother helped build? I feel so unhappy.
I can't help but say that it looked quite fascinating before, but it was a bit embarrassing to read the scene where a woman disguised herself as a man and became an official in the court. To be honest, in this era when Internet literature is booming, this setting is really mind-blowing to read. I didn't expect that a veteran writer like Liu Ye would also use this routine... Uh... It's a bit vulgar and silly to say the least, and in this book, a woman disguises herself as a man to meet a king and be appointed as an official.<Font color There are too many loopholes and flaws in the writing. It is a bit simple, rushed and too childish. It is really not something that an author of Liu Ye's level can write.
As a time traveler, why doesn't Xinyou's mother start a career on her own, but pins her future on a scumbag? What's more, as early as when the scumbag was still young, the scumbag's mother had already shown her viciousness, selfishness and dislike for her. I don't understand that this kind of family doesn't just run away quickly, but still sacrifices their heart and soul.
It's not a cool novel. I felt aggrieved after reading it. The scumbag dad did nothing but regret. After avenging her mother, the heroine helped the scumbag dad manage the country. In the end, she gained nothing and left the country with the male protagonist...
The endings of these two books have been very rushed recently, as fast as riding a rocket, and it feels perfunctory... There are no memorable points. It is a type that leaves no trace after reading. Compared with the previous books, it is really inferior.
