A work! Paul's life is full of value! I agree with one of the passages in it: "Being strong is easy when you are healthy, but when you are in pain, being strong is very valuable."

Palace fight? No! House fight? No! In a story about a female protagonist competing for hegemony, is the female protagonist stronger than the male protagonist? Talking about love and forcing wisdom? None here!




The heroine looks gentle at first glance, but she actually has a strong heart. Unlike other strong female characters, the heroine is not violent and is very freehand and romantic. The author lays out a very grand world view, and the characters appear in a squadron, each with its own merits. Maybe it's because of the author's personality that there are always hidden things in the text, so it's necessary to take a look.



The female protagonist is responsible for making money to support the family, and the male protagonist is responsible for looking beautiful. The slutty female protagonist with a broken leg, the male protagonist who lacks love and is a neurotic young man Don't worry, with the female protagonist here, the male protagonist still has to be the "wife" of the future prime minister.




A story about a heroine fighting for hegemony with a unique angle, not limited to small romances. If you want to watch a palace fight and a house fight, this is definitely not it. But if you want to see the world as a chess piece, and seek family, country, and world, this novel is perfect.
