Light and Enjoyable Palace-Intrigue Novels Worth Rereading
Looking for books similar to The Empress. This book isn't as full of dramatic twists and turns as Empresses in the Palace, but it has the same gently unfolding everyday life as The Story of Minglan. It isn't as sorrowful and bittersweet as Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace, but it shares The Story of Minglan's wisdom about women. Although it takes place in the imperial harem,

To be honest, this is the first book I have read so many novels where I don't really want to be with the male protagonist. I don't know why the halo of male protagonists that often appears in novels suddenly doesn't appeal to me so much. I can't say that I'm not that into it, I just feel that even if I know it's the male lead, I still don't want to be together. Although I feel sorry for the male protagonist. But the plot is very good. 🉑
After going through countless hardships, he finally knew what is most valuable. Ji Zhaohua's life has gone from being favored by thousands of people to being displaced, tossed in the whirlpool of power and desire, and human nature. He is tenacious, rational, and able to see through everything. After experiencing the loss of relatives, children, lovers, and being... She was deceived, betrayed, plotted, and tortured but still managed to live her own wonderful life firmly. She was constantly losing things in life, but she finally found a life that truly suited her. Although it was not as noble as before, it was the most comfortable and tranquil. Her life was too bitter, and she finally reaped the sweetness of life after giving up everything in the end.
Overall, it's pretty good ~ I like Xia Houchen's character design more, and his thought changes are more natural ~ I don't like the heroine's behavior and thoughts a little bit ~ The author's writing style could be more concise and perfect, and there is a bit too much explanation
Originally there were some flaws and the rating was too low, so I gave it five stars for encouragement. The overall content is well written. A woman from a noble family fell in love for the first time, but she married the wrong lover, which led to the destruction of her family and a tragic end for herself. Escaping to a foreign country, the helplessness of fate being in the hands of others, the entanglement and emotional ups and downs, and the struggle between women in the harem are all vividly written. Fortunately, the heroine has a kind heart and a clear mind no matter what position she is in. Therefore, he won the hearts of the two Xiahou brothers. Although bad luck continued, the heroine survived with strong perseverance, and finally found happiness after all the hardships. It's such a pity that Qingshuang abandoned her former self in order to fight against fate. If she were still the same as before, I think she would also have different happiness! Xia Houchen was a great man. He gave up the throne for the sake of the people and the love in his heart. In fact, sometimes if you take a step back, the world will be brighter. Who says it is not a blessing in disguise?
It's great that the heroine can always maintain her original intention. She wanted revenge after experiencing too much pain, but I didn't see the heroine doing much for revenge. Although she followed the King of Qin and was forced into the palace for revenge, she didn't do much to seek revenge. Instead, she always expressed the idea of seeking a safe place again. She didn't want to plot with others. She felt soft-hearted but was hurt again and again. To be honest, she has experienced great tragedy and been hurt again and again. Can she really maintain the same mood as the heroine? On the other hand, the heroine's brother was not only saved when the accident happened, but he also had at least a group of loyal subordinates around him. Compared with the heroine, he was not as miserable as her, but in the end he became thorough and he was the one who did the most for revenge. In the end, although he was an emperor, he was lonely, surrounded by calculations, and was separated from the heroine. I felt sorry for him, and I felt that he was the most miserable person in the book.
It's still worth watching! The only failure is that Jingshuang should not be written as a time traveler, in my opinion 😂😂
I want Xiahou Shen and Zhaohua to be together
I really like classics ♥ Who caress my face and soothes my sorrow for half a lifetime; who carries my heart and melts the frost of my half life; Who can hold my shoulders and drive me into silence for the rest of my life. Who calls my heart and covers up the misfortune of my life. Who abandons me and leaves me alone in sorrow for the rest of my life; who can understand my intentions and make me have no regrets in this life; Who can help me with arms that are unparalleled throughout the ages; who can pour my heart into my heart, and an inch of earth is like a void; Who can bury my sorrow, laugh at the vanity of the world, and make my heart crazy. Yi, cover my lips and remove the wanderings of my previous life; Yi, hold my arms and remove the frivolity of my previous life. Holding my hand, I will accompany you in madness for thousands of lives; kissing your eyes deeply, I will accompany you for eternity. Holding your hand, I will share your life's hardships; kissing your eyes, I will give you a lifetime of affection. I, holding your jade hand, take away everything you have in this life; I, caressing your beautiful neck, shield you from the wind and rain in this life. I hold my son's green hair, holding my son's love for a lifetime; I hold my son's hand, and we will love each other for a lifetime; Zeng, in the name of my father, I will save you from sorrow in your life; Zeng, out of pity for your son, I wish you peace in your life!
The plot line of the story is very good. It is different from ordinary ancient novels. It is very interesting to read, but it is still a bit incredible. The author's thinking is really strange, and he can actually write such an unprecedented and unprecedented book. I recommend it [you taste it carefully] [you taste it carefully] The ending is perfect. You might not be able to stand it when you read the middle part, but once you read on, it becomes more interesting. You really can't skip the middle and lower chapters. To be honest, I never could guess the ending. However, it is still enjoyable to read, and the next few chapters can actually be skipped as they will have no impact on the subsequent plot. I should have skipped more than 20 chapters without reading it, but it had no impact at all when I read the rest. It's still okay, at least the author's writing style is pretty good [you taste it carefully] [you taste it carefully]
The plot is complete, not procrastinating, and the psychological description of the characters is also in place. Worth reading.
