Coupled with Yao Lao's historical background comparable to Gu Cheng, he wrote an encyclopedia of China's feudal society.

3. February River Kangxi Dynasty, Yongzheng Dynasty and Qianlong Dynasty.
Some people say that apart from time and place, history is true and false; This novel is true, except when and where the characters are false. February River? Emperor series? It is such a set of true and false novels. There are many fictional elements in the details in the novel. But the face of officialdom is true, and it has never changed since ancient times. Grandpa four and grandpa eight are still fighting, and the Forbidden City is still shouting anti-corruption. The literary inquisition continues. The military department is still centralized. The essence of the three sets of books lies in the Yongzheng Dynasty. What is the essence of Yongzheng dynasty? Nine sons seized the office? . February River is about the emperor's mentality and tactics, which is unparalleled today.
4. Liu Sifen's White Door Willow

There is no doubt that this is the best work written by scholars and prostitutes in the late Ming Dynasty, and it can be called a contemporary peach blossom fan. However, compared with the humorous comments of the bright moon, Liu Sifen wrote a sad elegy. Maybe Nan Ming's humorous ability is not enough. The whole book reflects the whole through the stories of literati and prostitutes? Late Ming dynasty? Hologram. After reading this book, you will know that there was a complicated social conflict when Ming died.
Seven laws. White willow
Yesterday, I heard the fan dancing peach blossom wind, and I saw the white willow with strong color.

8. Sun Haohui's "Daqin Empire"
The author spent several decades writing six volumes of Qin Feng, showing the rise and fall of the Daqin Empire.

Some people say that the Daqin Empire has awakened a national spirit, but in some places it is written like a little cynic who has beaten chicken blood. Although the three views are different, the novel is really a good novel.
9. Wang Yuewen's "Qing Guo Xiang"
Thanks to Wang Qishan's recommendation, it has been very popular in recent years. But this book is not an excellent historical novel, or even an excellent officialdom novel.

10, Mingyue "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty"
Finally, I recommend a historical novel "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" that is not a novel. I believe many people have read this book, but I don't have much content.

It can be said that the events of the Ming Dynasty accompanied my whole senior high school life, and in the most important growth stage of my life, it had a great influence on me from the aspects of hobbies, knowledge, cultivation and outlook on life. With the most popular brushwork, the history of books is the heaviest.
Others: Cao Sheng's bloody career, Wang Xiaolei's despicable saint: Cao Cao.
The former wrote Li Si, while the latter wrote Cao Cao, both of which were highly controversial figures in history. It is also an arduous task to write your own opinions in disputes. These two sets of historical novels are popular in recent years. Since they can sell well, they naturally have their merits. Although there is still a certain distance from the above classic works. But opening books is beneficial, and reading as a popular science book is also very helpful.
