The history of the late Ming Dynasty was chaotic and complex, and can be described as a history written by a few people with strong personal charisma.

Whether it was rebels like Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, rulers like Chongzhen and Yuan Chonghuan, or traitors like Wu Sangui and Geng Jingzhong, each of them had many stories. It was because of these wonderful stories that the history of the late Ming Dynasty became so grand and turbulent.

To write this period of history well, we must naturally depict vivid characters, regardless of their stance. We stand on the edge of the long river of history and observe from the sidelines; they are merely a ripple in this long river.

To observe the world with a critical eye is what we need to do now, and to observe history with a critical eye is also a pursuit in our lives.

The river of history has flowed to our feet, and we can stand on its banks, ready to embrace our history.

In troubled times, those who are rebels want to be emperors, and those who are emperors want to rule the world. This world is not very stable either. Those who are disciples want to be the leader, and those who are the leader want to be the leader of the martial arts alliance. In a small mountain village in Nanzhou of the Jokhang Dynasty, Li Beifeng's biggest ideal in his life was to inherit his father's mantle and become an outstanding doctor who was respected by people and renowned throughout the country. Until one day, he accidentally saved a seriously injured female martial arts leader... ————A non-martial arts, casual and serious story with a historical emphasis (easy to watch, don’t take it too seriously)

My name is Li Xuanba. I am the third son of the Duke of Tang. I have been frail and sickly since childhood and am the weakest child in the family.

Until one day, my elder brother rode his horse out and fell. When he woke up, he became delirious. He took my hand and said that I would be an invincible general in the future, capable of killing a million rebel soldiers by myself.

Since my brother has said so, it must be true.

Also known as "The Legend of the Great Tang Overlord", "From Li Xuanba to Li Yuanba", "The Artificial Overlord Project", and "Brothers, the Situation is Urgent!"

Came fifty years early

He Dingxian plunged into this turbulent and prosperous era where countless heroes had not yet made their fortunes. He fought with real bosses and danced side by side with beautiful beauties.

What you earn is in your hands,

Never give it away!

The third year of Hongwu.

When Zhu Yuanzhang established his rule over the world, many things needed to be done.

There was a loud bang on a clear sky, and Deng Qianqiu came into the world: "Only those who endure the most hardships can become the best. Time is money, and a thousand gold cannot buy a moment. From now on, this is the ancestral motto of my Deng family. Dad, I wrote this especially for you, you must remember it."

This is the story of a common soldier rising to become a general. The protagonist has no subordinates, but countless brothers. There are many female characters, but only one true love. Although he started from nothing, his ambition is to rule the world. On the battlefield: he commits crimes against humanity, carrying out massacres. In his daily work: he has affairs with his superiors' women. In his lifestyle: he practices polygamy. In his economic conduct: he is the biggest corrupt official in history, the most incorruptible general, and the most ruthless bandit. The author says: We fantasize about the outcome, but we don't fantasize about the process. Let all miracles become reasonable and natural. …

Riding on clouds and mist, three heads and six arms, five elements of Taoism, green-faced and fanged overseas immortals, cruel and cunning side door scholars, and the twelve true immortals of pure and empty morality. The

emperor of the Shang Dynasty was unrighteous, the phoenix rang in Qishan, the fate of the world changed, the throne of the gods in the heavenly palace changed, the immortals killed calamities, and countless masters scrambled to avoid it.

Looking at this familiar yet strange world, Liu Qiao had to rely on his memory, foresight, worship the immortals, join the Chan Sect, obtain the treasure, break through the killing calamities, and prove his sacred position...

"Daoyou, please stay, I am here to respond to the calamity..."

During the Tianbao era, peace and prosperity prevailed.

Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Wei, Wang Changling, He Zhizhang, Gao Shi, Cen Shen, Yan Zhenqing, Wu Daozi, Zhang Xu... Countless figures of renown throughout history inspired the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty.

However, prosperous times are like porcelain—exquisite yet fragile!

He opened his eyes and saw not the elegance of talented scholars and beautiful women, but an emperor indulging in extravagance and debauchery.

The stark white bones at the head of Qinghai!

The regret of Natalus.

Those barbarians from the Northeast are eyeing us covetously.

And then there were those alluring figures in Huaqing Palace, dancing the Hu Xuan dance, captivating the emperor, who dreamt he was an immortal…

When China forever lost Central Asia; when the ancient road between the two capitals was littered with corpses of the starving; when the iron cavalry of foreign tribes once again overwhelmed the Jade Gate Pass.

As the era of the "Heavenly Khan" gradually fades away, the imperial court remains a place of revelry and extravagance.

Li Linfu, with his honeyed words and treacherous heart, controlled the government; the Yang family was extremely powerful, wielding immense influence.

When a person meets an era!

He wanted to achieve military merit and become prime minister in this last era of scholars wielding swords, hoping to save the dynasty from collapse.

A young man with unwavering courage and integrity, his writings rivaling those of kings and nobles.

Drunk, I whipped my whip past the stars over Fanlou, my robes brimming with the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty and the elegance of the Song Dynasty!

Dreaming back in the middle of the night, Wen Mingtang saw the ending of the beauty who pampered the golden house;

After waking up from the dream, Wen Mingtang changed his core and decided to take a down-to-earth path…

At the end of last year, the evaluation forms for personnel changes in various ministries in the capital came out, and the public chef of Dali Temple topped the list with a record of changing 12 cooks in half a year.

Since then, the public chef of Dali Temple has become famous in the first battle, and has become a nightmare for cooks all over the capital.

…

On this day, a new chef came to the public kitchen of Dali Temple who had been vacant for more than half a month…
