Compared with the second volume, the third volume is generally more satisfactory to me, although of course there are many flaws.
First, let’s review the story theme of Volume 3.
The entire theme revolves around how [Decline] came about.
In order to illustrate this point, a total of two groups of enemies and two stories were arranged.
First, there is internal strife within the ruling class.
The Divine Power Army is of course also part of the ruling class.
The imperial court will not choose to go to war until it has exhausted all non-war means.
Their struggle is life-and-death, and there are also compromises, such as the choices and sides of the major forces.
Second, the cruelty of the ruling class to the ruled class.
Using Jingang Temple as a guide to find out what is happening in places other than Lingzhou.
Thereby portraying the power and political demands of other regions, etc.
In general, both stories take Linghu City as the stage, allowing Chu Qianqiu to go crazy and do things, and disintegrate the methods of the court and Kongang Temple in advance, reducing the threat of the Shenwei Army in the future, and they can be regarded as a relatively satisfactory conclusion.
.
In fact, the end of the third volume should be (Chapter 321). Some readers may feel that I am a bit delayed in the next dozen chapters.
But considering that a veteran like Chu Qianqiu, it was impossible for him to go to Beijing before he became the military prime minister.
In addition, he is not alone, and all forces and forces must be arranged.
I always try to balance rhythm and rationality, and if it doesn't work out, I'll choose the latter.
Of course, I also know that this approach is bad for my grades.
I also compressed his approach as much as possible and added a few things that I like to hear and see.
But it still seems lengthy. This is something I didn't do well, and I can only learn lessons from it in the future.
I didn't read the comments for a while because I was worried about being criticized. After all, if you get scolded for poor grades, it's easy to have a bad attitude.
So I may have ignored a lot of comments, so I apologize if I didn’t reply to them.
When my grades are a little better, I will be more relaxed.
Next is the fourth volume "Journey to Beijing".
Chu Qianqiu was finally coming to the core of the dynasty, meeting the Prime Minister, the Queen Mother, the legitimate daughter of an aristocratic family who was about to become the Queen, and Her Royal Highness the Princess, etc.
