Great Books I Followed to the End Back Then
I started reading novels around 2000. First I bought books: Jin Yong, Huang Yi, Harry Potter, and so on. Then I started renting books, like Piaomiao, Zichuan, and Yiren Aoshi Lu. Somewhere along the way, I registered a ridiculous username on CMFU and started reading ebooks. Gradually, Qidian had more and more books, while I read fewer and fewer of the books on my shelf. These days, if a book has nothing special going for it, I drop it if it doesn't get picked up for publication. If I'm lucky, I

Dreaming Back to the Ends of the Earth: A Historical Fiction Recommendation Hub
🌟 This list is really more of a bookmark folder. Every book here is one I plan to read, am currently reading, or have already finished. I wouldn't include any books I don't want to read myself. There are also some books I haven't recommended individually, only mentioned in the descriptions of other books. That doesn't mean they're bad. I just don't think they need a separate recommendation. They're either too well known, similar in style to the books I recommend, or written by the same author. S
My Personal Taste: No Vulgar or Tasteless Reads
No brainless harem fantasies. No mindless wish-fulfillment. No infantile protagonists who make everyone around them seem stupid. I like books with originality and something to say. The characters feel like real people, each with their own depth. My tastes are niche, and I refuse to compromise. I hand out leaderboards to authors when I feel like it. That’s just how I roll. I only recommend books I’ve read. I won’t recommend anything I haven’t. Having the protagonist become emperor for no reason
Made to Order
My personal tastes.
A Must-Read for Veteran Bookworms!
Great books vetted by a seasoned reader. If you're in a reading slump, give them a try! (I can read books, but I can't write reviews. See for yourself; that's better than anything anyone else could write.)

A Twelve-Year Bookworm: Content Is King!
I won't recommend a book unless it's good. It needs a solid plot, good writing, and well-developed characters. No idiotic plots, amateurish writing, saintly protagonists, or brainless villains!

Although I haven't read the book, after glancing at the comments, all I can say is, are you planning to make everyone an enemy of the entire world while trying to implement democracy in feudal times? [Including the peasants being democratized.]
The term "Middle East" refers to Eurocentrism, with China belonging to the Far East. During the Ming Dynasty, the West hadn't yet experienced the Industrial Revolution or the Renaissance; the Ming Dynasty was considered the center of the world. You should probably refer to the Middle East as West Asia or Central Asia; Europe calls it the Far West. 🤫
Why do these authors always believe that having the emperor's support guarantees reforms? Because of the Ming Dynasty's defeat by the Manchus, the Ming Emperor Tianqi attempted reforms, but even a simple boat trip was scuttled, leading to his untimely and mysterious death. Infringing upon the interests of powerful groups also resulted in the emperor's demise. Meanwhile, the Ming emperor, a carpenter who neglected state affairs for twenty years, enjoyed a peaceful old age.
You're a modern person who time-traveled, and besides making money through crooked means and plagiarism, you've contributed absolutely nothing to the development of social productivity. Were you a hoodlum before you time-traveled? Even if you worked in a library and were only good at theoretical discussions, you shouldn't be this useless!
The culture of loyalty and filial piety has existed for thousands of years; it doesn't simply blossom and bear fruit just because someone plants a tree of democracy.
Zhang Juzheng was actually a sycophant in the author's eyes.
The author actually views Zhang Juzheng's writing as sycophantic and naive?
Shameless! The whole thing is plagiarism, even plagiarism isn't as good as actually being an official. I'm speechless.
[Comment] Great book, 11 votes daily to support!
No doubt about it, it's a great book, absolutely a great book!!!
You finally get to transmigrate once, and you become the prime minister? What a useless author.
What kind of garbage about democracy and freedom does the History and Literature University have?
