Historical Romance With a Strong Female Lead Who Isn't a Saint, and Doesn't Get Weakened Whenever the Male Lead Appears
Female lead in an ancient setting, highly skilled in martial arts, intelligent, and involved in palace intrigue. Don't have her quietly lose her edge. I hope the leads focus on their careers, with less romance! Less romance! Less romance!

It's very good, very down-to-earth, and very realistic. It's not like some novels like Space, Goldfinger, or some mythical beast?
The writing style is brisk and the characters of the male and female protagonists are clear. The author writes the emotional scenes between the male protagonist and the female protagonist very normally. There is no greasy and annoying illusion. There is no routine of the male protagonist falling in love with someone all at once. The male protagonist only has feelings for the female protagonist after a lot of experience. There are also food scenes.
This book is so well written that I couldn't put it down after reading it. The author seems to have traveled through time. Why does it feel like the author is living among them? I admire and envy the author's good writing style, and will become jealous after reading it for a while. Haha, like it.
This book is well written, the plot is clear and orderly, with flesh and bones, the language is simple and not noisy, and it relies entirely on the characterization to successfully capture the readers. It is like a piece of jade, and it is worth calming down and quietly appreciating.
This book is so good that I don't want to miss it, but the ending is a bit rushed and unsatisfactory. There should be many, many stories behind it. All in all, in short, I hope to see other good books by the author, or follow-up chapters of this book. No more nonsense, all five-star reviews! All five-star reviews! All five-star reviews! All five-star reviews! All five-star reviews!
It is a very good novel. The heroine is not pretentious, the plot is clean and neat, and there are not so many women fighting behind the scenes.
I read it carefully from beginning to end. It is well written. The so-called beauty is not just about appearance.
The story has a strong sense of meaning and is close to life. It won't make people feel like they can't stand it anymore. It's very coherent. Overall, it's great.
This novel is quite good. The first half talks about the heroine's perseverance and her simple life with the hero. The food in the novel is rich and memorable! In the second half, the heroine and the hero go through all kinds of things and get back together. The author writes fluently. Although there are occasional typos, the plot of the novel is smooth. It is a rare novel!
It's very beautiful. I hope you all enjoy it.
