A record of my 20 years reading web novels. I read plenty of pirated copies, and some I never finished, while others I reread several times. I was poor back then. I've forgotten the titles of many books I read and can't find them anymore. I'm writing down some personal thoughts as a way to remember, and to thank all the web novel authors I've read. Their work filled my youth and even helped improve my Chinese grades.

I Just Remembered My Reading List. Adding a Few More 😊😊😊
I've read every book I recommend, and subscribed to nearly all of them once they went premium. The only exceptions are books published before 2013. If you want to advertise, please wait until a book has passed 300,000 words. I generally don't read anything shorter than that, unless it was written by an author I like.
The Next Great Author Could Be You👉
This list mainly recommends the following: 👉 Classics I've read and that are already complete; 👉 Stories I'm currently following or letting build up chapters for; 👉 Promising new stories recommended by friends. Whatever the genre, if I like the writing and plot, I'll add it here for everyone to enjoy. P.S. Most of the books are fantasy, xianxia, and urban fiction. Apart from recommendations from friends, I generally don't add horror or sci-fi.

I'm Too Unsophisticated for Mainstream Xuanhuan and Xianxia, So I Prefer Niche Reads

I mainly recommend historical fiction, urban entertainment, online gaming and esports, along with a few promising new books from conscientious authors! I started this list a year ago. I've deleted many of the books I added back then because I couldn't keep reading them. The ones left are good books that have stood the test of time, along with some worthwhile new additions.

Historical, Urban, and Xuanhuan Fiction
As a seasoned reader, I choose books based solely on my personal tastes, not on who wrote them, so I’ve read plenty of great books. But I usually delete a book after reading a few chapters, and later I can’t find many of them again. It’s a real shame, so I’m taking this opportunity to put together a list. I’m especially fond of historical fiction, so I’ve gathered the historical novels whose titles I can still remember. I’ll also recommend a few books I’ve been reading lately. Let me tell you a

[Comment] Some thoughts on the protagonist
I don't know whether the protagonist set in this book is too young or the author deliberately made it so. Overall, I feel that he is a bit too bloodthirsty. Personally, I am not opposed to revenge against aliens, but I still feel that it is really necessary to eradicate them. The protagonist's behavior reminded me of the German head of state and our neighbor Japs. Killing on the battlefield can increase the military's sense of honor and mission and national self-confidence, but excessive killing on the battlefield can only bring guilt and more intense resistance. The author's setting is that in the early days of the Tang Dynasty, labor was needed to build the country and it was in ruins, so the protagonist should focus on capturing a large number of slaves. The genocide sounds very majestic and nice, but apart from giving out a bad breath, it does not bring much practical benefits to the Tang Dynasty. Instead, it will make the foreign races around the Tang Dynasty vigilant and encourage them to unite against the Tang Dynasty. The question is, did the newly founded Tang Dynasty have so many soldiers, horses, money and food to consume? Years of war have depleted China's vitality and it is not enough to launch so many battles. It's a bit far-fetched. Overall, I want to express a few points. First: The current genocide of the protagonist is not in line with the overall interests of the Tang Dynasty. Death is not the most terrible punishment for the alien invaders who bullied us. Life is not the best punishment for those bandits. As the author said, mining, building roads, bridges, and cities should be done wherever the environment is bad and the work is dangerous. The undeveloped Jiangnan is good. The cultivated fertile land is enough to maintain the needs of the Tang Dynasty. Second: The treatment of slaves must be graded to maintain sustainable development. They must be given the job they want to be fed and can do the most and best among the whole team. Parents who want freedom can join the servant army or death squads or die in the death squad or make meritorious deeds. Parents who farm for three years can be freed. Those who want their children to obtain the status of the Tang Dynasty can do it. If they have skills, they can raise horses, hunt, brew, sing and dance. Learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses. Third: In ancient times, the most powerful weapon we had was not steel swords but civilization. Killing destroyed a nation and brought us huge harm. Our lives are very valuable. If we fight against Rome and a powerful civilization of the same level as Rome, then forget it, but is it really worth wasting on these Tu people? There is only one policy for them: reform the land, return to the countryside, accept complete Chineseization, and give equal opportunities to those who actively join to make contributions. This is also in line with the history of the Tang Dynasty. As for the passive protagonists, the slave policy is fully applicable. Soft knives are always more poisonous, crueler, and more invisible than steel knives. The main reason I say so much to the author is to express that although this is just a novel, it is the author's hard work and a dream of the Tang Dynasty for all readers who like the Tang Dynasty. In reality, the motherland has begun to revive, but there are many heartbreaking problems in the process, so I want to think about my ancestors from the book. I don't want to be comforted by the glory of my reverie. We are not little devils and beasts. We are a group of people with pride in humanity. Kindness and kindness are the nature of our nation. We will not be Mr. Dongguo, but we will not be the executioners who destroy humanity. From my personal point of view, I'll stop here. If you don't like it, don't complain. Thank you.
[Comment] In fact, the princess of the Tang Dynasty was quite worried about getting married.
In that era, if you married a princess, you could not get a second wife. Sexual intercourse must be approved by the princess, and travel must be reported to the princess. Poor white-haired parents have to greet the princess when they see her. It's really treasonous!! (From the perspective of the son, if I were there) If you marry a princess, you will suffer. Many Tang Dynasty princesses actually have bad tempers. Princess disease! I remember there is a statistic that less than 50% of Tang Dynasty princesses were married! Forgot~~There are too many people who can't get married anyway!! No one wants to take it!! Did Li Er really think that his princess was really good!! Li Er was fine when he was there~~ but his granddaughter... His granddaughter is really difficult to marry 😰
The author was probably not married and had children when he wrote the book, so there are common sense errors. You won't show pregnancy after two months of pregnancy, so how could your lower abdomen be slightly bulging?
Anyway, let's take a look at history. Why was Li Er able to succeed in his coup? Because you rebelled, you succeeded? Shit, how stable is Li Jiancheng's position as Crown Prince? Why should he rebel against you if you don't have outstanding abilities? Are you killing yourself when Li Yuan appoints Li Ertiance as general? Why don't you confer Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji? It's not because you are incompetent. Li Er has so many military exploits and so many people in the army are watching. What do you think if you don't confer them? Half of the battles were won by Li Jiancheng. If this was the case, Li Er would not have even thought of a coup, let alone a coup.
[Comment] Personal thoughts on the protagonist's marriage
I feel like the author's arrangement is pretty good. Indeed, based on the ancient background at that time and the current situation of the protagonist, this arrangement may not be the most comfortable, but it is indeed a relatively reasonable and ideal arrangement. After all, the protagonist's foundation in the Tang Dynasty is too shallow. This mode of marriage arrangement was considered the mainstream at the time, and it also involved the issue of filial piety in ancient China. If you oppose it, it is tantamount to going against the trend of the times, especially the status of the protagonist himself. Every move is followed by people, which determines that he is still in the place where this trend is strongest (if the protagonist is in that remote country and has no name, then Just stay away from the center of the trend, and you will have more freedom. No one will care about you as a small person anyway). To oppose is to go against the current. At least based on the current foundation of the protagonist and the actual situation, he does not have this ability. Maybe after five years of operation, there may be other solutions. However, people have brought up the marriage issue now, and the escape route has been blocked, so they can only accept it.
[Comment] A little opinion
The part in the article where the protagonist denounced the northern nomads in court looked very cool, and the friends were all shocked. This part could have happened in the Sui Dynasty before the Tang Dynasty, or in the Song Dynasty after the Tang Dynasty, but it could never happen in the Tang Dynasty. The Li family in Taiyuan was not of pure Han descent. Think about it from the perspective of the Tang Emperor, would the protagonist's actions make the Tang Emperor think that he was criticizing the emperor, and the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty was not afraid that the rebel forces would use this as an excuse to rebel against the Tang Dynasty and overthrow his own rule?
There is a problem with the setting. First of all, the language is not mentioned. It is acceptable to be able to travel through time and become a teenager. It is also acceptable to have the gift of photographic memory. However, it is intolerable that the mobile phone can also search the Internet. Why is the protagonist the protagonist? That's because he can do what others can't do, not because dogs can be like dogs.
The personalities of the old man and Suning are actually very similar. Although the old man's thoughts towards foreigners are relatively cold, it can also be said that because he has experienced a lot of things in ancient times, his views on things have become more cold and extreme. It is possible that they are two identical people in two parallel time and space who have also experienced ancient life, but Suning is luckier than the old man. He has the old man's guidance and his character has not changed. In the end, Suning is actually very happy. I even suspect that Suning actually lived a long life, and then lived until the modern age when he found the Su family, and waited until Suning grew up to find him and let him learn from him.
This is the author's third book, and it is also the author's first book. Compared with the previous books about Xiao Xiongzhi and Xuande in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it is indeed too green. In terms of writing style and plot concept, I can't stand it after reading more than 200 chapters. I still have to read the latest one.
The book is very good, and the ending is also indescribably touching... I cried like a 200-pound dog after reading it.
