[Comment] Some questions about Li Ke
Some have argued that Li Ke lacked true talent. His supposed literary abilities are clearly documented in historical records (poetry, calligraphy, etc.), But historical texts offer no concrete evidence, only a vague statement about his "all-around talent in literature and military affairs." Is Li Ke merely a figurehead? Let's consider three points.
There weren't many flaws in the early chapters, but in the first chapter, Du Xijun was bullied. In most Qidian novels, the protagonist would definitely retaliate if he was bullied, especially if his family or women were bullied. He would retaliate tenfold on the spot without any regard for the consequences. However, the protagonist of this book is particularly rational.
[Comment] Good book deserves a thumbs up!
"Okay" is just one word. Do I have to say it several times?
[Comment] I saw comments mentioning Choi Min-do's actions without even reading the book.
Emperor Taizong (Li Er) did not avoid using the name "Shimin" in his name, only avoiding the use of the two characters together. You won't find Yu Shinan in historical records; the Lingyan Pavilion only mentions Yu Shinan, not Yu Nan. Historical records indicate that Li Shiji changed his name to Li Ji only after Li Zhi ascended the throne.
It's best not to kill off Empress Zhangsun when writing about the Zhenguan era.
I actually really dislike the sister-in-law/sister dynamic. The whole family died. Why are two women left behind? And is she really being nice to you? She was clearly being nice to your predecessor. You're just being delusional.
After reading ten chapters, the author spent about four chapters depicting the protagonist's romantic relationship with his widowed sister-in-law. Is this a time-travel romance novel?
Just a random comment I picked, tsk tsk, a moral guardian? A eunuch?
Why a harem? Every trip abroad brings back a woman—no wonder the book isn't popular! Honestly, the plot and storytelling are quite good; weaving many events with history is a clever touch. However, the biggest flaw is the excessive number of women.
Officials relied on the eight-legged essay style to become officials, and promotions depended on official documents. Even if you could copy some poems and essays, it was useless if you didn't understand the classics.
