With over a decade of reading under my belt, these books seem decent in terms of plot and writing. Divided into top-tier, mid-tier, and low-tier fodder.

I disliked Zhu Yuanzhang from the bottom of my heart. He was the kind of person who could share hardship but not prosperity.
In the early Ming Dynasty, only Zhu Yuanzhang's sons or relatives could escape death. Most of the princes in the early Ming Dynasty were arrogant, corrupt, and preyed upon the local people. Impeachments and memorials from various places were suppressed. If pushed too far, the accusers were punished for sowing discord among relatives. The most severe punishment for the sons was to summon them, beat them, and then kill the accusers.
This is bizarre! I've read 58%, over 700,000 words, and the first paragraph of this novel isn't even finished. A single battle has already taken up over 700,000 words. It's really strange.
It's very simple to get Old Zhu to kill you; just insult him directly...
What's wrong with being killed? Wearing a dragon robe and constantly flaunting it in Zhu Yuanzhang's face, see if you don't die then.
Zhu Yuanzhang had to be captured. You say he had guards? How many men could he possibly bring? Dozens or hundreds? Any more than that and it wouldn't be a caravan anymore. A thousand crossbowmen or a thousand musketeers could easily capture him; he's not superhuman. Even if he were captured, he wouldn't dare reveal his identity. He'd be sent to a labor camp.
Want to die? It's easy! Your Majesty, I have recently been studying a delicious dish. Please look, this is pig's trotters, also known as pig's paws. Because of its spicy flavor, it is called "Spicy Big Feet." This cut of meat is plump and meaty, and can also be called pig fat.
Author, I have a few suggestions. I've been following the story closely, but I feel there are some issues. First, the pacing is slow; it seems to focus too much on Zhu Yuanzhang's inner thoughts. I understand Zhu Yuanzhang's anxiety in the face of such a talented individual, but constantly agonizing over his feelings gets tiring.

I can barely watch it after clearing my mind 🙂
I was drawn to you by Douyin (TikTok). Keep it up, author! I've spent quite a bit of money already, buying every chapter to read. I've tried reading pirated versions on browsers, but it's not as enjoyable as this. I'm willing to spend money to support you, and I'll give you all my monthly tickets. Please update more!
