The Ultimate Palace Intrigue Heroines
I once read a palace intrigue novel where the female lead was a neglected concubine's daughter. To change her situation, she planned to perform a dance associated with the current crown prince's mother at someone's birthday celebration. But the emperor took a liking to her, and she schemed her way into becoming his most cherished favorite. What was this book called?

The male lead is the emperor and the female lead is the empress. They’ve been childhood sweethearts since they were little. After he takes the throne, he makes her empress and dotes on her. She must be of legitimate birth, though.

Pure Palace Intrigue, with a Female Lead Who Has a System!
The Male Lead Is an Emperor with a Hatred of Women, His Family Struggles to Have Children, and It's a Monogamous Romance with Both Leads Inexperienced
The female lead should be very fertile, but not have too many children.
Palace and Household Intrigue, Empress, Historical Romance, Comedy, Quick Transmigration, Transmigrate
Are there any quick transmigration novels with an imperial harem intrigue arc? Please recommend some! I'd especially like a goofy female lead who rises from a lowly position to become empress. There has to be harem intrigue.

Palace Intrigue Stories with Lots of Food
A transmigration palace-intrigue story where the heroine enjoys all the delicious food and keeps asking the imperial kitchen to make more tasty dishes. Ideally, she doesn’t cook herself.
The Male Lead Is the Emperor, the Female Lead Is the Empress, and She's His Only Consort
The hero is very obsessive, both leads are strong, and the heroine dotes on the hero.
Any Stories Where the Male and Female Leads Are the Emperor and Empress?
The heroine shouldn’t be timid, but she shouldn’t be too domineering either. I’d like some palace intrigue, but not nothing but palace intrigue, and it shouldn’t be too convoluted.

The female lead is quite capable and not at all naive or innocent. She also gains the upper hand in the palace intrigue, making it very satisfying to watch. Five stars!
A harem with intrigue and scheming is a true harem. I really like this book; my only regret is that Fuyan died.
Although the male lead didn't abolish his harem in the end, he still doted on the female lead exclusively, a setting I particularly loved. "Although I have a harem, I only love one person." Definitely worth watching.
This book is so good! I finished it in two days. The only bad thing is that Fuyan died, sob sob. Also, there are too few side stories, but that past life and present life side story was so good! Lian Jingnian loved Chang Huan in both his past and present lives, so sweet!
There are bonus chapters!!! The bonus chapters are so cute!! And the male and female leads aren't like some novels where the male lead hasn't even appeared yet. In this one, the male and female leads are interested in each other from the very beginning, and then it's the kind of love that develops over time. The harem intrigue is also very well written, not clichéd.
The male lead is innocent. However, the tragic part is the murder of the female lead's sister, which is truly heartbreaking. The novel doesn't have many complex plot twists, and the male lead isn't particularly cunning. The two are a strong team, and their relationship develops later on. With a good balance of reason and emotion, it's a decent work.
I think this book is great. It's different from my previous ones; the author's ideas are unique, and I really like them. I love it!!
This book is excellent, avoiding the pitfalls of many wish-fulfillment novels. It's also very engaging, with the female lead maintaining her intelligence throughout. The palace intrigue is thrilling and exciting. Although it's not a double virgin story, the emperor ultimately only has children with the two female leads (in many palace intrigue novels, the male lead who falls in love with the…
From a renowned talented woman to the most favored empress in the harem, Luo Changhuan promises a lifetime of happiness. It's a good palace intrigue novel that I read a long time ago. It has elements of growth, regret, strategy, and emotion, and it explores the journey from exploitation to trust.
It's a pretty good palace intrigue novel. The female lead, Luo Changhuan, is reborn at the age of thirteen. She enters the palace through the imperial concubine selection, initially wanting to be a quiet, unassuming foodie, but under the emperor's guidance, she gradually rises to the highest position in the treacherous harem.
