Treasure Hunt Reading List 📚
A collection of books I’ve enjoyed, found worth reading, or wanted to gripe about.
A Bookworm’s Smorgasbord
A laid-back list maker who updates whenever the mood strikes. I'll gradually add new books and revise my comments on existing ones. Feel free to drop by often. I'm an older reader with eclectic tastes. I read male- and female-oriented fiction, cultivation, fantasy, historical romance, magic, family intrigue, sci-fi, farming stories, anime-inspired fiction... pretty much anything. Rather than following new books as they come out, I prefer the satisfaction of reading a whole story in one go. So

Historical Fiction Recommendations
For my own use. These are all books I'm currently reading or planning to read. Feel free to upvote or downvote, everyone, and thanks for helping me sort through them.
Feel-Good, Smart, and Showbiz Stories
I only recommend books that I have been able to follow through to completion. I have grown tired of simplistic novels, and the era of brainless stories is over. I now focus on intelligent novels with well-planned plots. Most involve transmigrate, reborn protagonists, the military, sports, or entertainment. Recently, though, I have also been reading other genres, so there will be more variety in the future.

The comments section seems to be underestimating the class-based brotherhood among emperors.
It's hard to imagine that in 21st-century China, people would still argue over two feudal pigs.
Have you ever served in the Han Chinese Eight Banners? Some of your writings are random and based on assumptions.
I love the Qing Dynasty too. My ancestors were elite members of the Solon tribe. I think it's a real shame those Manchus in Beijing weren't killed. You all live good lives while my ancestors were out hunting.
That's too dangerous. When the Manchus first established their dynasty, it was just a tribe that occupied a country. They were extremely barbaric. Even if you were to be slashed by a knife while you were jumping around like that, not a single blister would come out!
Historically, Emperor Shunzhi was a typical example of a powder keg whose emotions were unstable in the face of military setbacks. When Zheng Chenggong achieved a great victory at Guazhou, beheading 3,000 bannermen in one battle, and more than a dozen prefectures and counties in the Jiangnan region rebelled, directly besieging the weakly defended Nanjing, Fulin was single-mindedly and impulsively…
Historical records state that the old servant, after being shot by cannon fire and lying in bed, summoned renowned doctors from across the land to treat his illness.
A renowned doctor said that the old servant's cannon wounds could only be healed by applying the essence of his closest relatives. The old servant then called his sons to his bedside and said that he would come back to see them the next day, and whoever contributed the most would be made his heir.
I've discovered this: a book that rebels against the Qing Dynasty and incites Manchus to fight each other—it's a divine book!
The latest unofficial histories from the Qing Dynasty history circle are just too damn unbelievable.
The story that Emperor Kangxi was actually Hong Chengchou's son is surprisingly plausible... 🤭
The Qing Dynasty was indeed the dynasty with the most concentrated feudal power. I don't know if this is just my imagination, but it was the first dynasty to rule by ruthless killing and treat civil officials as slaves. They treated those so-called scholars and gentry like pigs and slaughtered them.
Some people are sensitive to the Qing Dynasty. When they see that the story is about being an official in the Qing Dynasty, they assume that the protagonist will become a slave. But as you read on, you will find that the protagonist is not only not a slave, but also very bold. The author is also very bold.
