Traveling to the forty years of Wanli, I not only want to eat, drink and have fun, but also want to save the country in a straight line. Yes, it is such a story full of interest and contradictions. In the late Ming Dynasty, Jiangnan was prosperous at the end of the world; the elegance of "Cai Gen Tan" was the vulgarity of "Jin Ping Mei"; old monks were engaged in business, courtesans paid homage to Buddha; Yuan Hongdao drank tea and arranged flowers to express his spirituality; Li Zhuowu made wine, meditated and continued to burn books; Dong Qichang was a master of both calligraphy and painting, but he was a bully of a country squire; Zhang Zongzi was a young dandy who dreamed of returning to the West Lake when he was old; elegant people see elegance, and coquettish people see coquettishness. Counting romantic figures, but also looking at the present (cooperating with someone's certain classic actions).

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the northern country was filled with smoke and corpses; the bridges and flowing water in the south of the Yangtze River were peaceful, and people were singing and dancing. Amid the internal and external troubles at the end of the dynasty, the sinister office director rose up and sounded the final horn of China. A true hero changes his destiny. The cruel and tragic ancient wars, the real Ming Dynasty marketplace, and the history created by each and every little person unfold a magnificent yet gentle and touching picture of the late Ming Dynasty.

Is it cool to travel through time and become an emperor? To be honest, I am not happy at all, because there are more things to bear and overcome than grass roots. It is difficult to paint again on a rotten canvas covered with oil paint. Zhu Yijun said: If God gives me another chance, I want to work for another 500 years!

In the eleventh year of Chongzhen, the land was thousands of miles away and the people were scattered... Li Zicheng: "Conquer Kaifeng Mansion and eat Zhang Cheng's meat!" Zhang Xianzhong: "Who is Zhang Cheng? Don't be afraid of yourself. I will help you beat him." Dorgon: "My brother Zhang Cheng, I have granted you the title of 'Bingjian King'. Are you willing to share the world equally with me?"

Long Completed Novels, Your Cure for a Reading Slump

We all know how hard it is these days to follow a book all the way to the end. A lot of people would rather wait until a novel is complete before reading it.

The quality bar is: mainstream genres must be at least solid, while niche genres must at least be decent. Self-recommendations are welcome.

The moon sets, crows cry, and frost fills the sky; I sleep troubled beside the river maples and fishing lights. Autumn candlelight chills the painted screen; a light silk fan swats at fireflies.
