After reading the first few chapters, I found some problems
Fortunately, the flaws in the first few chapters were acceptable, but when I saw the princess asking for protection, I felt weird. You know so much about other people killing people and burying corpses down to the smallest detail, so you just opened your eyes like this? Why not call yourself a fortune teller from the beginning? Reading the comments, it is said that the subsequent plots are so straightforward, why don't you deal with it? If you say you know that the princess doesn't want to get married, you can say that there is a way to understand it, but if you know the location of the murder and burial, isn't this nonsense? It is recommended to change it this way. The protagonist can blow him up to complete the plot, which is more convincing. For example, you can ask the princess where they can bury people in their hometown so that they are not easily discovered, such as a dry well, and then ask why the jade on your waist is missing. This method of hinting is much better than telling the information directly. The author really recommends watching "Mao Liar", the plot of Shao Banxian in the mid-term, and learning more.
This is a great book, why is there no one here?
A low-level dynastic plot plot. Starting from the fallen monarch, he can redeem his regrets, save the court, save loyal ministers and people, eliminate traitors, and step by step from the fog to reach the highest level. From what we can see so far, there are rich clues in the main plot line and the branch lines of each character. There are geniuses who have encountered changes, loyal ministers who have endured humiliation, and the characters are all brave and resourceful. It will be a very exciting overall situation. The author's writing is strong, and the plot of Machiavellian plots can be so smooth that it can be directly absorbed into the brain, so there is no need to worry about being too complicated.
The writing is quite good, but I really don't like this princess, and I'm very confused whether to read it or not.
It's a good book in terms of setting, but I hope the author can think more carefully about how to write it.
Let's talk about the work itself first. In fact, the previous one is very similar to Nirvana in Fire. The prince's red nun is still the protagonist's plan. The trade-off is that the strength of both sides has been lost. As of the latest garden case, it is no longer played. Many books can see references to past works, but this book is particularly obvious, and it becomes more and more obvious as it goes on. It feels like the author is stuck in fixed thinking and it is difficult to push forward. From the perspective of the work alone, I think the author can refer to some designs of "Lord of the Mystery" and "Reincarnation Paradise". For example, in "The Lord of the Mystery", the vest should be changed, and the scene should be changed. The current boss's sense of oppression on the male protagonist is almost over, and the protagonist has finished his luck, and then comes again. After a few rounds, you can ascend to the throne. For example, in Samsara Paradise, Mosquito is about to fall into the inherent animation derivative world. As a result, his ideas have changed and he has opened up an original world and is prospering. I also hope that the author will not be limited to the current framework As for the character creation, first of all, I must praise the author for his well-written character previews. The actors, the Five Gentlemen, General Yin and other characters arrived before they were famous. Looking at them, I looked forward to their stories with the protagonists. But in the end, I watched the trailer for "Pacific Rim" and bought the tickets for "Atlantic Rim". Now only Ningguo Hou Mansion is left. I hope the author can go further. As for the villains, the pseudo-emperor, the imperial master, Yao Zui and Feng Ya should be the control group. The former is the big boss on the surface and the latter is the secret little boss that the protagonist faces directly. It is a pity that neither the majesty of the pseudo-emperor nor his cruelty can be seen. On the tactful side, not to mention anything else, at least the Yongle Emperor should have the feeling, but it seems that he really just wants to check and balance and capture Jingping, and the imperial master is shaped like this. I really don't know how he became the emperor master. Is it because of his seniority? Yao Zui is a relatively good character in the villain group. He is the most persistent, motivated and pitiable. God's will can't help it. Feng Ya is actually Yao Zui 2.0. It is a pity that he is far from Yao Zui in terms of motivation, technique and sense of oppression. As for the character, judging from the character trailer, the author is very good. He is very good at building momentum for the character. But why is it still unsatisfactory in the end? I feel that the friction between the story and the character is not strong enough. I cherish my own feathers too much Finally, I would like to say that the score was 80 points at the beginning, and then gradually hovered around 60-70 points. What I least want to happen is to fall below 60 points later, and there are faint signs of this in the Yuanzi case. Don't look at the Yuanzi case. The author has come back, but how reluctant it is. Everyone has a scale in their heart. I hope the author will continue to work hard and be cruel to himself
Machiavellianism + Male Channel Langya Bang, are you cheating on yourself? 😅😅
This novel is too formulaic. Every time a key character in Zhao'an explains his background, it's just a rhetoric, a template for pretending to be a slap in the face. If we want the novel to be better, we need to make improvements in this aspect. This kind of novel that always pretends to be a slap in the face is only suitable for those who have just started reading novels. For old bookworms, it will only be boring and disgusting. The author has to learn a new way of writing, and then discard it if there is no change after reading fifty chapters. This way of writing has been used by Tomato Potato San Shao more than ten years ago. When I read the title of your chapter Prince Zhaoan, I guessed the content based on the previous Zhaoan. Then I ask you where I spent my money. Although it is difficult to change, and I don't know how to write anyway, you won't make money from an old bookworm like me if you don't change.
Brother author, please turn off the anti-theft 🙂
Lao Deng, if the protagonist in your book doesn't take the throne until the finale, she won't be able to lose her virginity. If you have to wait until the protagonist becomes emperor before you have sex, is such a heroine really good?
Top-notch writing, a primary school student among primary school students, I can hold my hand down even when I write.
Married but ➗female
This princess is so messed up. She married the prince and then didn't even touch him with a finger. She is still the daughter of Chu. 😰😰 It's really outrageous. Even if you say she is your fiancée,
It seemed okay at first, but then I found a problem. The protagonist was given too much of a hook, which made it difficult to continue the plot. At the beginning, you were a prince with nothing and struggled from the bottom. It was okay, but you came to join the prince of the new dynasty directly. As a result, you used the prince of the new dynasty to protect many old dynasty bosses at the beginning, and you also assassinated the characters of the new dynasty one after another. Moreover, the protagonist also has several peerless masters. It can be said that not long after the start, the protagonist has already completed most of the restoration tasks with the help of golden fingers and background. As long as he leaves the capital to establish the old dynasty, he can easily pull out a bunch of ministers and masters who can beat the new dynasty, but the protagonist cannot, why? Because the author also discovered that the protagonist saved too many people at the beginning and was too strong. There is also a golden finger that can keep these people absolutely secret and unable to betray them. So what should we do? To strengthen the new dynasty, first of all, people from all over the country welcomed the royal master. It was clear that just after the dynasty was changed, they instantly gained a level of loyalty that was almost the same as in the prosperous times that had ruled for decades. The officials of the new dynasty easily completely replaced the old dynasty system without causing any trouble. Various officials also popped up in an instant and were sealed in their positions. Out of thin air, the newly sealed positions developed interpersonal relationships that could only occur in decades of mutual sympathies, mutual cooperation, and internal strife. The people also had no reaction at all to the change of dynasties with a large number of killings. Even the imperial city where there were many relatives of the old dynasty officials continued to celebrate the festival and boasted that they had just met the new dynasty boss who had just come here to serve as an official. He was a highly respected scholar and high-ranking official with a reputation all over the world. After the change of dynasty, your allied brothers who have been through life and death may not necessarily convince you to become the emperor, let alone the initial goal of fooling around with you is to be a master, so in the end, what you may ask for is to be a king with great autonomy. In history, it is either a rabbit to death or a dog to kill these generals, or to assassinate these generals. Either they relied on time to corrupt these people's force and slowly took over power after decades, or they could only watch these generals' descendants become local emperors without interference, and then wait until the next dynasty change when these generals' descendants joined the new dynasty and continued to be emperors. Where is this book? It is written about a time when the dynasty has just changed and the emperor has just invaded the imperial capital, and then the protagonist only spent a few days sneaking back to the imperial capital. These generals have already settled the power relationship with the emperor, and have even moved their families into the imperial capital. The description of their understanding of the imperial capital and their understanding of politics seems to be as familiar as if they have lived here for decades, and the political stability is not decent.
Wanding check-in building
I've been following up on updates, and I've finally subscribed. Congratulations.
An honest review from a bookworm of more than 10 years. In fact, the author read the previous book but couldn't explain the combat power and combat aspects and abandoned it. However, this book has absorbed the shortcomings of the previous book, and the overall rhythm and plot are much better than the previous book, so in my mind, I can definitely give it a T1 level.
Sincerely asking for help
Can anyone tell me what makes this book exciting? (Character, logic, plot, world view, game setting, golden finger, or snowy white?) And what are the reasons for it to be so successful? I have persisted in reading more than 40 chapters, and my heart is on the verge of collapse... I really don't want to complain! I got the idea for this book when I saw the author talking about it on Acne.
Come on, come on, author
Chapter 454 Deleting Fragments
But it was getting late, Qin Youqing reluctantly got up and left, and Li Mingyi saw him off in person. After arriving at the back door of the temple, the two of them looked at each other and said goodbye. Li Mingyi suddenly said: "There should be a ceremony for farewell." "Ah? A ceremony?" Qin Youqing was startled. Seeing Li Mingyi confidently raise his right hand, palm forward: "Follow me." Qin Youqing was surprised, and stretched out his slender hand, palm forward, facing it: "Then?" "In this way, bend the five fingers," Li Mingyi demonstrated, and the two people's hands were each placed in half of a heart shape. "Thumb to thumb, four fingers to four fingers." Li Mingyi taught while making two people's hands into a heart. When the fingertips touched, Qin Youqing's eyelashes trembled, with a strange expression: "What pattern is this?" The ancient heart-shaped pattern still lacked public awareness, Li Mingyi said seriously: "This is in my hometown, and it refers to here." He pointed to his heart with his other hand. Are you worried... Qin Youqing pursed her lips. Then, taking advantage of her panic, Li Mingyi separated her fingers and interlocked them. Smooth and moist. "Yeah!" Qin Youqing's cheeks were flushed, and a deer-like panic flashed through her eyes. She wanted to pull back, but she didn't. Li Mingyi taught seriously: "This is called heart-to-heart connection... Well, the ceremony is over." He let go of his hand naturally, as if he was not a mere disciple. "..." Qin Youqing looked at him quietly, then turned and left, waving without looking back: "I remember." When Princess Yin wore a gauze hood and left under the protection of her maid, Li Mingyi withdrew his gaze, turned around, and looked at the black-robed monk who had appeared behind him at some unknown moment. Master Jianzhen raised his right hand and made a half-hearted gesture: "We are of the same mind. When I was a poor monk, I traveled all over the world, but I have never heard of such a custom anywhere." Li Mingyi clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha, do not look at anything inappropriate, and I will take my leave."
Now the protagonist has been acting in front of Li Mingyi's face and has contact with most female characters. His apparent identity is Li Mingyi. Even the character card is Li Mingyi. But this is fake, it has always been a mask. Chai Chengsi also has an identity, mainly linked to Wen Qi and Li Wushangdao. It's a hidden identity, but it's real and has roots in this world. It's a bit disconnected. I would like to believe that the author has an arrangement when writing this. But if I find out later that this is a poisonous point, I will just spray it and hope it will be tolerated.
I feel like the author can't come up with anything new.
Each attempt to persuade someone to surrender is a short biography of a character, and then the old minister reveals his identity and bows to him. It's okay to read it twice or three times, but it's boring and a bit path-dependent. To be honest, the main plot doesn't make much progress. It's better to write more interactions with the supporting female characters or more fights and robbery... It's not possible to give more perspectives of characters outside the imperial city. Simply watching the protagonist's model drama to persuade him to surrender is no longer fresh 😴
Alas! My thoughts after five hours of reading
Although the book only has two chapters, I did not read it for five hours. Just to trick everyone into coming in and grab a front row seat. I wish you fortune.
It was so painful. I only started reading the last book when I had hundreds of chapters in stock. It was so refreshing that I could not stop reading it day and night, and I realized how painful it is to keep reading. But I just started reading this book and I couldn't help reading it. It was so painful, and I had to wait for the next chapter every day. It was so painful.
So in the end, the protagonist still has to go up alone? So what's the point of working so hard to save people and form a team? A bunch of good things from a rebel, but nothing from a royal family with a long history and upright roots? How can this royal family be passed down for such a long time even if its background is inferior to that of a person who started his career halfway?
It seemed interesting at first, but after more than 200 chapters, it felt boring. It has always been the same theme, the protagonist goes undercover - gives a task - performs it - others cause trouble - exposes the vest - recovers - completes the task. In the middle, there is an ambiguous plot with the female character. There are too many repetitive similar plots
Do you have any recommendations for similar novels?
I haven't read a novel so addictively for a long time, but the author has updated too little
To be honest, it's just average and not that pretty.
I finished reading it in two days. My writing is average and I still need to practice.
I hope new readers can be more patient.
There are some writing problems at the beginning of this book, but they are not poisonous points. They will be answered in the following content. I also suggest that you turn off comments. Others' opinions may not be correct, just make sure you feel comfortable with them. Sometimes there is no need to be too picky. Not everyone is platinum or a master, and even if you put aside the filter, it may not be much better. I can't stand some comments because the author doesn't care at all.
After thinking about it, I still want to write a long review.
This book is overall very good, as new readers can tell by reading the comments. The main criticism of the book is that it is slow to update. I personally think it is okay because it is half-read, but it is also a good thing for new authors. The overall plot can withstand scrutiny. I think the author shouldn't be in a hurry and just follow his own pace. There's really no problem except that there are few updates, but there aren't any big updates... So it won't be on the monthly vote list. I feel that it will be quite interesting whether the protagonist controls the court later on, or he makes a small splash, does something, and then exposes his identity and goes outside to fight the court head-on. But if it ends with just controlling the court, it will feel a bit hollow. I hope readers can write well in the middle and later stages.
This is my last ripple
Write quickly
Really, I saw it at three o'clock in the middle of the night, and I was sleepy at work the next day, but I still wanted to read it... The author will update it soon!
Nice surprise
I just finished reading the second volume. Overall, this book is well written and worth reading. The heroine is well portrayed, and the character Zhaoqing is very attractive to me. The plot is not too sketchy, and it is one of the few books that I can read smoothly in one go. It's a bit exciting, and the climax at the end of the first volume really made me excited. When I watched it in the early stage, I thought it was a mask trend, which made me worried. The character Wen Ran reminded me of another novel, and some book reviews led to a bad impression. I had a Shennong mentality and didn't click on the comments to read on. Later, I found that there were no poisonous points as imagined, and the look and feel was much better. Some comments may indeed need to be dealt with. There are not many holes in the plot, but it feels like the protagonist relies a little too much on the information brought by the player's identity. I really want to see the protagonist still be able to accomplish something without any intelligence, so that the protagonist can break away from the golden finger and show his own abilities. Also, the heroine hopes to have some normal interactions after she accepts it. Although I also like to watch that kind of plot, it doesn't want to be all that kind of plot. It feels like the original personality of the characters is gone. I'm looking forward to the following plots. Come on, author, don't let it suck. I'll give you a monthly pass.
