Shao Song: where to start 绍宋
Start 绍宋 (Shao Song) at 第一章 明道宫 on Qidian. Later volumes reuse 第一章, and the newest slot is a linkage notice. This note used the catalog, not the chapter text.
Back to this book topic → Shao Song: Opening Guide, Start at Chapter 1
Catalog only. The chapter bodies were not read. No quoted lines, no free-preview paste, no claim that a drama scene or a game listing equals a chapter.
Search 绍宋, Shao Song, Continue the Song, Zhao Jiu, or the pen name 榴弹怕水, and the useful question is still smaller than 491 catalog slots. Where do you start. The first title on the page is already the door: 第一章 明道宫, under the first shelf named 第一卷. A skip list will still offer the newest button, 绍宋联动《无悔华夏》新版本已上线, timestamped 20 August 2026. Just above that button the catalog announces a Steam listing and, older, a new book titled 廓晋. The original’s own last story label, 第三十五章 明证（全书完）, then 完本感言, is years older than that button and is not the door either. Tap “latest” because a collab made you impatient, and you opened a flyer while the first door was still a chapter named after a palace.
Start at 第一章 明道宫
Open 第一章 明道宫 on Qidian and follow that catalog from the first 第一卷, not from the newest button. The Chinese original, 绍宋, is the book page. On 14 October 2026 the mobile page called it 完本, author 榴弹怕水, category 历史·架空历史, last update 2026-08-20 13:04:23, with a stats line of 275.77万 characters. The catalog page listed 491 chapters and marked the book finished. The public pitch is a short alternate-history note about 1127. That pitch was not copied here, and it is not a map from a linkage notice to a chapter.
The next catalog title was 第二章 赤心队. That is a label on a contents page. This note did not open it. A second shelf is also named 第一卷. It begins at 第八十五章 流光（中）, then 第八十六章 流光（下）, then a title that is a shelf-up note, a volume summary, a thank-you, and a New Year line at once. That thank-you is not chapter 1. 第二卷 then starts over at 第一章 召见（上）. 第三卷, 第四卷, 第五卷, and 第六卷 each open on their own 第一章. A shelf name is a label. The second 第一章 is not the door you skipped ahead to finish faster.
The newest button is a linkage notice, and later volumes restart the count
The same book page’s newest chapter was 绍宋联动《无悔华夏》新版本已上线, chapter 923420819, timestamped 2026-08-20 13:04:23. The title names a collab. It is not 第一章 明道宫. The title before it was 绍宋影游改编已经正式上线steam, chapter 923420305, the same day. Before that, 新书已发《廓晋》, chapter 888675594, dated 2026-02-17. Those titles name a game listing and another book. The story catalog’s own ending label, in 第六卷, is 第三十五章 明证（全书完）, chapter 664525452, dated 2021-07-29, then 完本感言, chapter 664528232, the same day. After that label the volume fills up with extras, fanfic titles, a notice for 黜龙, a later extra titled 番外：建炎三十六年, and thank-you notes. Those titles were not opened. A finished book can still grow a newest button. The button is not the beginning.
275.77万 characters is a warning label, not homework. You are deciding whether a first story title that names a palace, on a book the page already calls 完本, is your kind of door. You are not signing up to finish a book this page did not read, and you are not signing up for a watch-order chart. Finished is a status. It is not a review.
Who should start here
Try it if a search for Zhao Jiu or 从哪开始看 sent you and you want this Chinese original, you can ignore a later volume that starts 第一章 again, and you can ignore a newest button that is really a linkage notice. Same catalog habit as the My Heroic Husband opening guide: that page is also a historical search door, the shelf above the story is 作品相关, and it starts at 楔子 繁华过眼开一季. A finished catalog whose later shelves reuse 第一章, and whose newest button names another product, is the Swallowed Star opening guide, which starts at 第一章 罗峰. Those pages used the contents list and did not read the chapters.
Leave it if you want a newcomer’s first chance at training, checked scene by scene, or a mystery about whose name you woke up wearing. Those doors are the RMJI opening guide and the Lord of Mysteries opening guide. Those pages stay inside chapters they actually checked. This one does not pretend to. The shelf is the Shao Song reading series.
