Great Ming: I Have a Fantasy World

What good can be said about feudal dynasties? As Lu Xun famously said: "All I know is that this is cannibalism!" What was the Xinhai Revolution?

In the mid-to-late Ming Dynasty, civil officials were constantly at odds with the emperor. It's possible that someone would sit down at the table and eat alone.

In the author's description, I saw a group of people with average intelligence and emotional intelligence managing the world, without any wisdom or strategy, just seeing who was more foolish and whoever lost!

If I had read this book in middle school, I think I would have found it very interesting. It involves time travel and two worlds, linking ancient China with a fantasy world. The protagonist moves between the two worlds, gradually growing stronger. Whether he chooses a business or farming route, it's all worth watching. Unfortunately, things are different now than they were a decade or two ago.

No emperor in the Ming Dynasty could outmaneuver the civil officials; there was never an emperor whose power was usurped by them. First, Ming emperors could kill whenever they wanted, and they didn't have to worry about losing their positions afterward. They could commit mass killings without the country collapsing. Second, the Ming Dynasty was known for its severe factional strife.

The protagonist is 8 years old and 1.3M tall... To be honest, that's really just average, even considered short. At 8 years old, he's already in the third grade, and at 1.3M, he'd be sitting in the front row. My daughter was 124 cm tall when she was 6 years old and in first grade, which was considered short for her class.

Author, the villains you've written are far too stereotypical. All the bad guys are civil officials; this one-size-fits-all approach is clearly wrong. We're still in the mid-Ming Dynasty; the relationship between the emperor and civil officials hasn't reached the life-or-death struggle of the late Ming Dynasty, where they directly align themselves with the new dynasty.

Seeing an 8-year-old child confront a senior official, acting all sly and cunning, was so embarrassing.

After reading just a few chapters, the author's opening strategy seemed off. You're either the crown prince, the sole heir, or someone openly vying for the throne. Why start building your power as a prince? What are you trying to achieve? Especially with the money you make early on, keeping it for yourself—what are you thinking? Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver; even the emperor is short of that kind of money.

Feudal dynasties were all cannibalistic. The Ming Dynasty only had some prestige; the Qing Dynasty was nothing. The Ming Dynasty was merely a dynasty ruled by the Zhu family; no matter how capable the subordinates were, they would still die, like Zhang Juzheng. Society today is no different from the past, only now the cannibalism is more refined. But if you dare to show your face, you'll be dead instantly.
