Red Chamber Novels I’ve Enjoyed
2026.6.1 1. Most Dream of the Red Chamber fan fiction falls under alternate history, but it's fundamentally different from conventional historical fiction. The unique charm of these stories lies in the lives of the women in the garden. If a book uses the title Dream of the Red Chamber but ignores the fates of the women throughout, then the words "Red Chamber" in the title are meaningless. If it's just a historical novel wearing a Red Chamber disguise, it would be better to write straight-up hist

My Picks for the Best of Each Genre
The quality of novels on Qidian is all over the place these days. Beginner-friendly fluff and mindless stories are mixed in, making it hard to find good reads. Here’s my personal reading list. I rate the good novels I’m currently reading for their fresh prose, skill at handling love triangles, and creative ideas. Ratings range from one to five stars. One or two stars means I don’t particularly recommend it; three or four means I recommend it; five means I highly recommend it.
Books with Sane Values
No womanizers, no brainless characters, and the characters have sound values. All kinds of genres. I’m a seasoned reader of ten years and test every book for poison, keeping only the good ones.

Plagiarism, absolute plagiarism! Don't refute me, I don't accept refutation! The book I read has more words than yours, but the content is the same! You can prove yourself now by updating twenty or thirty chapters to see who plagiarized whom! Actually, you also know that everyone still believes you, but your words are unfounded. You should update twenty or thirty chapters first. It is easier to say something with evidence than anything else!
I see that the title of your book is also named "Shulang". Why don't I see how hard your protagonist studies and strives for the imperial examination? Instead, I see someone with high ambitions and low abilities. He doesn't take the time to do what he should do at this age. Instead, he looks like a rural version of Jia Baoyu. The problem is that Jia Baoyu is still a young man from the prince's palace. What does your protagonist have? A person with no fame and no status, talking so much now, having sex with this girl and that girl all day long, it's all just pie in the sky. You said that you provided disaster relief. Even if a child has merit, it is not your credit. The imperial examination will not give you extra points for doing good things. Even if Jane is in the emperor's heart, it will be more than 10 years later for the emperor to be really useful. Or are you saying that you, a child, will take a rocket to the imperial examination after that? Hum hum, Jane's childhood in the emperor's heart is probably a joke. Tong Sheng is not qualified to wear a sword and be called a gentleman. Even if your disaster relief happened when the protagonist was already a scholar, I wouldn't say anything, because only when you become a scholar do these things can you really get credit, while Tong Sheng does this only in vain. When it comes to falling in love and flirting with girls, you have to master the rules. If you want to write this book well, highlight the study in your book title, imperial examination! There are so many harems among Red Mansions fans, and they mainly write about love lines. I have read enough of them. I have been subscribing to your book because you said it was an imperial examination article.
In fact, this book does not need to go to Jia's mansion or the capital. The growth of the male protagonist and the love of Sister Lin, a short story in the Red Mansion. . I am used to seeing the arrogance of my family, country, and world. Ordinary, simple people and things, and the eloquent writing style are like the sunshine in spring, which makes people feel comfortable. .
I paid for it in vain
Why are you so irrational in opening a harem? Why are you so irrational in opening a harem? You have already set Daiyu as the eldest wife. I won't say anything when Baoqin comes. Yinglian comes again and gives the wife a common wife. You are a farm boy. How many wives do you want? Comparing Daiyu and Yinglian, I don't believe Lin Ruhai and Jia Min will agree. Nor will someone as proud as Daiyu agree. It simply tramples Lin Ruhai's family into the mud. I looked at the introduction to see if it was about a single heroine, and I agreed, thinking it was at best a concubine. I didn't expect you to be a flat wife. Good guy, it's also because you are greedy. You are not only lustful but also very bold. I don't know, I thought you were a relative of the emperor. One is the eldest lady of the fourth rank, and the other is a skilled girl who is still virgin. If I had known that you would write about Daiyu like this, it would be better for Daiyu to die at a young age in Dream of Red Mansions. You trample on Daiyu's feelings and the face of everyone else, you are a pure Phoenix man.
I haven't watched it, but The Red Mansion is not suitable for the starting point. The starting point is an orphanage. Whoever pays to see the Red Mansion without a harem is useless. It is free at most.
The early part of this book was really good, but in the later part I felt like I was drifting off. I picked up girls every day. I didn't read the book and picked up girls all day long. It also dealt with a lot of things about moral incompatibility. In the later period, I couldn't read it at all and gave up the book!
What is written in the back is really rubbish. I don't know what they are doing. Lin Daiyu writes like a prostitute, more exposed than Xue Baochai.
To be honest, it would be better not to write about Zhen Yinglian. First of all, there are not many scenes. He forcibly found an equal wife for the protagonist. Then her mother was dissatisfied. To be more realistic, I have been trafficked for many years in ancient times. This is a reputation that has been ruined. Normally, no one from a better family would marry her. Either marry into a poor family and become a wife, or become a concubine. It's better now. Even the wives of the number one scholar feel aggrieved and want to find a better one. Oh, by the way, it was the protagonist who rescued her back then... Where did you learn this boxing technique? Little red book? !
Marrying Yinglian is an absolute failure. This character has no role in promoting the story since its appearance. It has no characteristics other than being crazy and naive. The character itself has not grown at all, and it does not contribute to the growth of the protagonist. It even has no effect on the development of the story. Moreover, the protagonist has basically no spiritual interaction with him from beginning to end. I really don't understand the meaning of writing such a character. At the same time, in terms of character description, Yinglian is very different from the description of Daiyu in this book, and even compared to Baoqin, it is also very different. The protagonist should have a mixed mentality of sympathy and gratitude towards Yinglian, but the emotional power from these two points is too weak. If we talk about sympathy, then the protagonist cares enough for Yinglian and does not need a flat wife. If we talk about gratitude, what else does Yinglian do besides giving away clothes, and Baoqin goes to the mall to do outreach for the protagonist? How much does a woman pay, and how does the protagonist give back? From a reader's perspective, the protagonist is indiscriminate in handling this matter.
Yinglian, this arrangement is really uncomfortable.
There is no role, so why give it to the protagonist?
