The new book, "The New Book," has been released. It tells the story of a time traveler's battle against the chosen one of the worlds during the Xin Dynasty. Looking back over a thousand years, the palaces of the Han dynasty still stand! It was the third year of Emperor Zhao of Han's Yuanfeng reign. Powerful ministers held sway in the court, the Xiongnu were not yet defeated, and the Silk Road remained a thread that could not be severed... Although Wei Qing and Huo Qubing are gone, the pioneering spirit of the Han people will never cease, and new heroes are about to emerge! In the Gobi Desert near Dunhuang, at a post station called Xuanquanzhi, a lowly clerk named Ren Hong threw down his pen and angrily shouted: "A true man should not be without ambition; he should emulate Zhang Qian and Fu Jiezi, achieving merit in foreign lands to gain titles and honors. How can he spend his life confined to the world of books and inkstones?" Book club group: 1021675508. VIP group (disciple level and above): 496717165.

Chen Xi looked at the soldier who had thrown a boulder weighing several hundred pounds away, speechless as he gazed at the heavens. Was this really the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty? It seems illogical that Lü Bu single-handedly broke through an army of ten thousand. Zhao Zilong is truly possessed by the dragon spirit; he can cleave mountains with a single sword strike. Is this really a human? Dian Wei single-handedly protected Cao Cao as they fought their way out of the enemy camp, casually slaughtering thousands of enemy infantry and cavalry. His combat prowess was off the charts! Something's not right here, is it? Chen Xi casually picked up a goose feather fan and waved it, creating a strong wind. He sighed, "This is a myth, isn't it? Even I'm not normal." P. S.: Actually, this is a serious farming/development story...

He transmigrated to the early Warring States period, his status so lowly that he didn't even have a surname, yet he dared to harbor ambitions. To support his ambition, he became a disciple of Mozi, infiltrated the Mohist school, and endured for several years in order to usurp the position of leader. Mozi transmitted but did not create; he compiled the Mo Canon and completely altered it. In an era of warring states and great strife, he stubbornly believed in the saying, "Is one born with a special destiny?" In short, this is the story of an ambitious person.

Shen Zhezi arrives in the early Eastern Jin Dynasty, transforming into the son of a wealthy family in Jiangnan. He owns thousands of acres of fertile land, immense wealth, and a large retinue of servants—a rare high-end transmigration story. Unfortunately, his father is a habitual rebel. The southward migration of the elite and the chaos of the Five Barbarian Tribes marked a tragic end for China and a lament for the Han dynasty. The powerful and influential families are unreliable; the north is wicked and the south is corrupt—two nests of bad seeds, only seeking to live a life of ease. This fertile land of China, the homeland of the Han people, will not be allowed to be used by barbarians! I will dedicate my entire life to building a righteous Northern Expeditionary Army to kill the barbarians, restore the Central Plains, and revive the Han dynasty! Book group: 608646355

(My new book, "The New Book," has been released. It tells the story of a time traveler's battle against the chosen one of the worlds during the Xin Dynasty.) At the end of the Warring States period, China experienced a great upheaval unprecedented in a thousand years. Some people are born into noble families. Some of them are noblemen. He was reborn as Hei Fu, a lowly soldier in the Qin state, a minor figure in the Qin bamboo slips of Yunmeng. To avoid dying in the ravine and to take control of his own destiny, he struggled to climb upwards. Fortunately, he was born in a great era. The six kingdoms were defeated, and the world was unified! A thousand years of bloodline could not withstand the power of military merit bestowed upon one. The nobles and powerful of the six kingdoms were all trampled underfoot by Qin officials. Hei Fu could only laugh and ask: Are kings and generals born with a special destiny? He conquered the Baiyue in the south, repelled the Xiongnu in the north, forced the Di and Qiang tribes to flee west, and sent warships eastward. Within the six directions, all was the Emperor's land. How did history change under his influence? Qin Shi Huang was destined to die, and the empire would soon be divided. As a Qin official, what choice should one make: to fuel the flames or to try and save the day?
