The Ming Dynasty's Young Student 大明小学生
In Nanjing, beside the Qinhuai River, a lowly young man stands at a crossroads in history. His impoverished life takes a turn when he meets a rich older woman. The common folk of the Ming Dynasty have no right to call themselves students, so they might as well start out as elementary school pupils.

The Emperor of the Mountain Valley 山沟皇帝
The protagonist's father had a dream and thought he was the Son of Heaven. Then a Taoist from a run-down temple read his fortune and said he was destined to be emperor. And so, this little landowner, who had never even been to the prefectural city, declared himself emperor and founded a country in a remote mountain valley. (According to reader feedback, this book moves at lightning speed: he becomes emperor in just three chapters, and before you know it, the whole nation is at war…)

The Iron Bones of the Ming Dynasty 大明铁骨
“Throughout the 315 years of the Ming Dynasty, we never sent princesses to marry foreign powers, paid indemnities, ceded territory, or paid tribute. The emperor guarded the nation's gates, and the ruler died for his country.” Unyielding and iron-willed, only the Ming! The cataclysm of 1644 brought the Central Plains to ruin; our great lands were stained by foreign filth; the sons of Han swore they would never be slaves! In the thirteenth year of the Yongli reign, Zheng Chenggong launched his nor
