One day, Bai Hanyan was out with her father, Bai Jingxuan. As they passed a low hill, they saw that a recently deceased person had just been buried. The widow, dressed in mourning clothes, was weeping loudly. Bai Hanyan hurriedly called her father's attention to the scene, and after the two of them listened carefully for a while, she sighed. “Alas, husbands are murdered by their wives all the time.”
Bai Jingxuan had no idea what she meant, but could not overrule his daughter. He had someone notify the authorities and bring the weeping woman in for questioning.
The woman saw the officials and, with a guilty conscience, quickly admitted that she had killed her husband by stabbing him in the abdomen with a silver needle.
Bai Jingxuan was astonished and asked his daughter, “How could you tell that the widow had murdered her husband?”
Bai Hanyan smiled faintly. “Her cries held no sorrow, only fear. What else could that be but a guilty conscience?”
Her father praised her highly, then lamented, “Though I wasn't born a man, my heart is more resolute than any man's!”
It's a good show, the female lead has a great personality, the case reasoning is excellent, and the biggest scumbag, Chang Fengxuan, is punished. All the villains in the show get what they deserve. The female lead and her love rival are incredibly hostile towards each other. The saying "Don't mess with a woman" couldn't be more fitting for her. Ji Wanyue and Qiao Chu both liked Han Yan, but in the end, they both let go. I felt inexplicably sorry for the male lead. Han Yan's words were very true: beauty can be deceiving, especially in the illicit love within the royal family. So many innocent lives were lost because of a woman. The only downside is that it repeats itself too much.
The crime-solving scenes between the male and female leads were very engaging, but their later romantic entanglements were a bit heartbreaking. They both thought they were doing what was best for each other, but never considered the other's wishes, and their lack of communication led to many misunderstandings. Fortunately, the ending was happy; after overcoming numerous life-and-death trials, they finally reunited and were very fortunate.
Why did the extra chapter end like that? It seems like there's still a story left unfinished. I really like the female lead's personality.
The female protagonist in the story is there to preside over a case related to her father's death, and that's how she meets the male protagonist. Many conspiracies and schemes unfold, causing her immense emotional and physical suffering. Their love is fraught with hardship and struggle, but the ending is happy, with the male and female protagonists having a son. However, the side story, "Qiao Chu's Story," is unfinished.
The writing is fluent, the plot is intricately woven, and it flows smoothly without any unnecessary embellishment, making it a captivating read.
It's great, absolutely fantastic!

It's worth reading, though some parts are a bit too long and drawn out; it would be even better if it were more concise and condensed.
