The book was opened on December 12, 2017. After four and a half years, "The Prime Minister" was finally completed.

This book was actually a stumbling block along the way. I remember that the new book issue was pushed to the ground very early and could not even be pushed into categories. But at that time, I was not discouraged at all, because I knew in my heart that I wanted to

No matter what kind of book you write, you should also imagine that readers will gradually like it.

It was with this kind of awareness in my heart that even though the next 380,000 words appeared on the shelves and hit the streets, it didn’t knock me down, because I wanted to create a book about imperial examinations and officialdom that was more in line with my own thoughts.

It’s just that people can’t completely break away from life after all, and unsatisfactory results put a lot of pressure on me. But at that time, I chose to spend more energy searching for information to restore a more authentic history, in order to create more exciting works of the times.

Fortunately, although the performance of the main website has always been unsatisfactory, the third-party income is relatively good in the history category, which also allows me to gradually devote myself to creation.

However, creating is undoubtedly a boring and lonely act, especially if it is a work that lasts several years.

As I continued to learn more about the more real and terrible conditions of the Ming Dynasty, and the results of the main site were always unsatisfactory, I experienced a period of confusion in the later stages of my creation.

Fortunately, many book friends appeared during this period and have been silently supporting me. I remember that time I posted a single chapter to complain in exchange for rewards from leader 2tnt and book friend 20171011000215239. However, I have not been able to add updates for them until now.

Just by settling the debt and canceling it, it seems that the account can be written off in one go.

As for the character design of Huniu, which is the most controversial issue in this book. At the beginning of the book, I didn’t want China to follow the old path of dynasty change again, and the protagonist who wants to fight for power in the intrigues of the court cannot be a good person, so Huniu was created.

Such a person full of positive energy.

As for Huniu's proposal for the protagonist's marriage, it may have been a bit ill-considered. But if Huniu hadn't stepped in, the protagonist would have hugged Xu Jie's thigh, which would also violate the original intention of the book to take a decent line.

Not everyone will like the book, it’s a matter of opinion!

The book has been finished, so it seems useless to talk about it. But this book can be finished successfully, and you can still follow it to the end, I am grateful in my heart.

It was your silent support that allowed me to get out of the trough period, complete the four-and-a-half-year creative journey, and complete the imperial examination and officialdom essay that I originally wanted.

Although this book may not be very exciting, I wrote each story carefully and tried my best to check a large amount of historical data in order to restore a more realistic history. This can be regarded as the greatest feedback for your support!

Finally, I would like to thank every book friend who has subscribed, given rewards, and voted for monthly votes and recommendation votes. It is your support that gives me motivation, and it is also your support that makes this story possible.

Thanks to the leader and enthusiastic book friends: Brother Pei Qian, lend me your heart, 2tnt, book friend 20171011000215239, the boy who loves reading historical novels, Tumo Sichuan Wolf, Smart Dude, Xiao Nian
