Whether the author is historically illiterate or a historical optimist, the protagonist's implementation of the performance evaluation system... What gives him the right? His own worthless fate? The author couldn't possibly be naive enough to think that all reforms of later generations could be moved forward, could he?
I suggest including the female lead, Xie Daoyun, in the synopsis. A character list is also necessary. Otherwise, many readers will just glance at the synopsis, see nothing special, and without a character list, won't even bother clicking on the page. Because of her status as a scholar from humble beginnings, Xie Daoyun has a large following. Her collection is sure to increase rapidly. The book is of good quality, keep up the good work!
To be honest, this author really lacks detail, you know? There's no detailed description of the war, it's all glossed over; there's no detailed description of the politics either, it's all just glossed over. This results in a lot of shortcomings, even though it seems logical and the pacing is fast, ultimately leading to a poor reading experience. I can only say this book has a shell but no substance. Hopefully, the author can learn from this experience and bring us a better work in the future.
I don't know if it's because I've been reading too many books about water, or if this is just progressing too fast. Generally speaking, following this line of thought, from the defeat of the Han dynasty to the subsequent governance of Sichuan, other books could easily amount to 200,000 words.
Is this a case of having nothing left to write about, forcibly suppressing the protagonist and elevating the opponent? Putting aside the protagonist's father's strength, the protagonist himself already controls the entire Northern Zhou territory plus the Hehuang region. What does the Murong clan have? They haven't even fully conquered Hebei. Considering they've been at war every year, they should have been financially depleted long ago. Yet, they still have an advantage over the protagonist.
Emperor Gaozu Huan Wen, and Emperor Wenzong Huan Xi. The protagonist will become the only Emperor Taizong in history to have ascended the throne normally 🤓.
Even a modern person wouldn't know as much as Shi Ran about the ruthless extermination of all foreign races, regardless of age or strength.
They've already revealed their hand, yet they still let Fu Jian ascend to the throne. Don't they have enough trouble already? Do they still dream of unifying the world? What can they do besides womanizing? Useless trash.
To be objective and without malice, the protagonist of this book is invincible from the start, which makes for a lack of enjoyment. He already has the powerful support of the King of Yongliang before even being released. Even in a game, if you break through to this level, the rest is a breeze and you can easily finish the story. 🤫There's really not much to write about when the protagonist in a historical novel has a very high starting point. Not every author is a history buff.

Since I didn't have time to make one, I found two clearly defined state border maps online for your reference.
