I've read all the books on this list, and bought most of them. I like stories about harmonious relationships between rulers and their ministers, not the romantic couples you usually see in female-oriented fiction. It's a personal preference of mine. I looked around Qidian and couldn't find a list dedicated to this, so I made one myself. These are all stories about serving the ruler, not fighting for supremacy, where neither the protagonist nor their descendants ever rebel, right through to the end. If you know any hidden gems or solid reads in this vein, feel free to recommend them to me! 😄

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...
